To a beginner, the world of options trading can be very complicated, with many moving parts. There are numerous terms to become aware of. However, if you focus too much on learning exactly what every term means, your head might spin. That’s why we tried to simplify things in our options trading courses.

Focusing on the big picture and the overall concept with options is important rather than focusing too hard on what every term means. In this case, each term is a piece that completes the overall puzzle, but it’s more important to see how the big picture comes together when trading options. The puzzle pieces will come together the more that you focus on the overall concept with options and get through learning all the options and training terminology.

That’s a question that many new traders ask. They seem so complicated, so why do it? Well, there are several different reasons why people trade options. One is to hedge against existing positions in their portfolio. Suppose your portfolio is mostly bullish, and the market turns bearish. In that case, many traders will take bearish options positions to hedge against the markets and capitalize without necessarily having to sell their current positions. Another tactic traders employ is to sell covered calls.

Another reason people trade options is for speculation. Many traders buy and sell options contracts purely for profit. They are good technical chartists, so they trade options contracts for profit. Trading options allow you to profit whether the market is bullish, bearish, or trades sideways. Credit spreads and iron condors are good strategies when the markets are range-bound. We will teach you those strategies in our options course.

A $25,000 minimum requirement for day trading options is called the PDT rule. If you want to swing trade options, there aren’t any minimum capital requirements.

Learning options trading typically takes six months to a year, but these results are unique. Most options traders lose money due to their risky nature and new traders needing to understand how they work.

The safest option strategy is credit spreads. It involves the combination of selling a call and a put. Options sellers collect a premium, while options buyers pay a debit.
