When is the right time to sell options premium? 📊
On tastylive's Know Your Options, @jschultzf3 explains how implied volatility rank (IVR) can help traders identify potential opportunities.
Using $META as an example, he breaks down why higher IVR matters, how falling volatility affects option prices, and when to consider taking profits.

Good time to reminded that when you match for size, not only are short puts not riskier than long stock.
They are LESS risky than long stock.
You have the OTM distance the stock has to cover first AND you have the premiums offsetting your basis from the jump.
I'm curious, how far does the Nasdaq have to move in a given day for you to classify that as a big move?

Why does the expiration date of an option matter when volatility starts to rise?
In a calendar spread, traders buy a longer-dated option and sell a shorter-dated option at the same strike. Because the longer-dated option has greater Vega exposure, an increase in implied volatility can work in the trader's favor.
In this installment of Know Your Options, @jschultzf3 @optionsuncapped explains why longer-dated options carry greater Vega exposure and how that can allow gains on the back-month option to outweigh losses on the front-month option when volatility expands.
Have a listen to the breakdown and let us know how you factor volatility into your options trading strategies! 👇

The most important greek, by far.
Beginner options traders often struggle heavily with two concepts: moneyness, and the Greeks. In today's installment of Know Your Options, Dr. Jim covered them both, starting with the most basic concepts in each.
Understanding the difference between being in and out of the money, and understanding the difference between all of the Greeks are critical parts of trading options profitably.
Have a listen to this very concise explanation of moneyness and Delta from @jschultzf3 @optionsuncapped, and let us know in the comments how you use Greeks in your daily trading life!
