4. Fibonacci Time Analysis

5. We spend countless hours looking at the vertical Y-axis searching for price levels to buy and sell. For the spot, stock, or futures traders this is fine, but for the option trader, we are missing a key component –TIME. Knowing not only where to place a trade (Y- axis), but WHEN to place the trade for what duration can make a huge difference in the outcome of the trade.

15. Option Deltas The amount an option is expected to move given a $1.00 move in the underlying stock. For example, take a Facebook Aug 95 call with a delta of 0.60 trading at $6.25. The underlying stock is trading at $97.00. If Facebook rallies from $97.00 to $98.00 that Aug 95 call will rally by $0.60 and should now trade at $6.85

16. Option Deltas Puts have negative deltas GLD Aug 102 puts are trading for $0.64 with a delta of - 0.23 with the underlying stock trading at $105.15. If the stock drops $1.00 to $104.15 the Aug 102 puts, though still out of the money, are now trading for $0.87. Delta can be looked at as the % chance that option will expire in the money, though there is debate about this definition. Delta can also be looked at as an aggregate figure to predict your account PnL with a $1.00 move in the underlying

28. What is Volatility?

30. Implied Volatility Implied volatility fluctuates quite rapidly as a percentage basis, which cannot go negative. The higher implied volatility is, the greater perceived movement there is in a stock The higher implied volatility, the MORE expensive BOTH puts AND calls become Implied volatility is mean-reverting, meaning it does NOT trend. You can range trade implied volatility, unlike a stock price which can and often does TREND The idea is to sell overbought implied volatility, and buy oversold implied volatility…

35. Trade Setup #2 – Measured Waves Trade 1.Isolate a trend 2.Wait for the trend to exhaust itself and begin to pullback 3.Identify the most recent MAJOR swing wave high. Use the highest swing wave 4.Find the most recent MAJOR swing wave low 5. Using your Fibonacci retracement tool, click the earlier swing wave and then the latter swing wave to draw the retracement levels 6.Monitor the pullback looking for swing waves against your retracement levels – these serve as entries*

38. Measured Wave Trade with IV Filter The current reading of the implied volatility will determine how you execute this trade. An implied volatility percentile of less than 50% suggests its better to use a long PREMIUM strategy. – For longs buy a nearby call, then sell a further out of the money call – If you are right on a directional basis those puts will become further in the money increasing the delta – Expectation is low implied volatility will revert to the mean and increase, thus raising the value of all options  a double kicker

39. Measured Waves with Low IV

40. Measured Waves Trade with IV Filter The current reading of the implied volatility will determine how you execute this trade. An implied volatility percentile of greater than 50% suggests its better to use a SHORT PREMIUM strategy. – For longs short a nearby put, then buy a further out of the money put. – If you are right on a directional basis those puts will become further out of the money – Expectation is high implied volatility will revert to the mean and drop, thus dropping the value of all options  a double kicker
