7 FREE OPTION TRADING COURSES FOR BEGINNERS.

Been getting lot of dm's from people telling me they want to learn option trading and need some recommendations.

Here I'm listing the resources every beginner should go through to shorten their learning curve.

PER ORDER Vs PER LOT brokerage

Which one is better?

Read the thread to know why one is clearly better than the other.

A THREAD ...

Too many people are getting scammed into per lot broking. There are offers anywhere between 6 rs per lot to 25 rs per lot. It's financial suicide to opt for this kind of broker compared to the per order ones.

Let's have a look at why PER ORDER is OBVIOUSLY the better choice.

1. How many lots do you sell at a time?

The majority of the people must be at least selling 2-3 lots in one go. (Assumption)

Per lot brokerage (10 rs per lot) you'll be charged 30 rs buy-side and 30 rs sell-side (as we sold 3 lots), overall 60 rs plus other charges.

Under per order, you'll only be charged 20 +20 = 40 rs overall. (This can be further reduced to 20 rs, check the 5th point to know how)

2. What's your capital?

If your capital is 10 lakh and above it mathematically makes no sense to opt for per lot unless you are selling 1 lot at a time or punching many orders a day.

(Constantly adjusting)

With a return of more than 170% & an average return of 4% on expiry days.

@Ronak_Unadkat converted 2 Cr to 5.5 Cr this year.

We met him in Mumbai & watched him do expiry trading live.

14 things to learn from him for trading FinNifty (for free):

Collaborated with @niki_poojary

(1) Small Account

First of all, let me tell you, he is trading Finnifty in only his small account.

His main expertise is Bank Nifty so he is keeping his main account only for that.

After 1 year of successful Finnifty trading, he will start with his bigger account as well.

(2) What returns to target in Finnifty?

He only trades this index for three days, i.e Friday, Monday and Tuesday.

His goal is to make 1% from here and another 1% through Bank Nifty.

This gives him a 2% week if he plays this well which is his main strength.

(3) Level-Based Trading:

He is a level-based trader, and won't book losses until his level comes.

If the level does not come, he will eat all the premiums & profit.

If the level breaks, whatever loss it shows him, he will book.

(4) How does he find his levels?

He will monitor the highest high and the lowest low of the three days i.e Fri, Mon & Tue.

Those levels he is mostly interested in shorting aggressively.

If no premiums there he will come closer.

How do I save taxes above 50,00,000 income?

• Not hiding income
• Not spending too much time
• Not trading in multiple accounts simultaneously

It's the same process that the top traders & fund managers use to save taxes. It works.

The Ultimate Guide for Traders who want to understand how they can use:

1) Unsecured Loans
2) Claim Expenses
3) Pvt Company

To drastically lower their taxes.

Have spoken to a lot of CA's and have got this information from them.

Follow these steps to pay lower taxes: ↓

Step 1:

The first thing traders do is loan their money to their family members to trade in their accounts so that they can make a profit in the family members' name.

This way the tax is divided by different names.

So you don't have to pay taxes on one name only.

How do they do this?

They use "Unsecured Loans".

It is completely legal to give a loan to your family.

Once they get the loan in their account, they can use that money to start trading.

30% tax is charged above 15 lakhs income.

Until 15 lakhs, you can trade in their names.

Assuming a family of 4 (most common) until 60 lakh profit you can do this.

This would be much better than making 60 lakh income on one name only.

Not only are you charged a lower tax rate by doing this, but you also make use of the no-tax slabs.

1/x Vanna is back & ready to turn back on the charm! Overnight the market hit our weeklong target of **3705 and pulled back... We were able to take profits & play for a bit of morning digestion. It’s been a nice +3.5% in a week w/a few extra scalps along the way...But the best

2/x part has been the gift of Vol compression, which along w/ short Vol profits, has given us significant calendar expansion & dispersion opps, as predicted. I expect this to continue this week as well, as Ivol oversupply should continue to be the dominant force until 12/11.This,

3/x paired w/ the significantly increasing Vanna & Charm flows, will make it hard for any decline until 12/14 to catch meaningful momentum. This said, the narrowing of 20 day RVol as well as the 2 stddev of the 20 day just overhead should cap any rallies, given the dramatically

4/x overextended retail (8-day SMA of P/C equity is the lowest in 20 years) & institutional positioning. This push/pull, should ultimately keep the market fairly pinned this week...Jan 8th call’s on back are incredibly cheap w/ a GA runoff event straddle of only $55, which given

5/x the potential macro-cyclical consequences of the next 2 years of fiscal stimulus seems absurd...& In terms of a more short term trade,Tesla Vol is either too high or 12/18 on back calendar spreads in the SPX are too low, as there’s no premium being priced in for the inclusion

There is no shortage of takes about what's going on with Gamestop (and other surging stocks), Robinhood and Reddit's r/wallstreetbets, many of them contradictory - at least on the face of them. But I think it's possible for most of these takes to be right. Here's how.

1/

First you need to understand the underlying mechanics of the story. Stock markets are fundamentally a way of making bets, including bets on the outcome of other peoples' bets, and bets on the outcomes of THOSE bets.

2/

All this complexity creates lots of exploitable opportunities. Some of these opportunities are considered legitimate and are given respectable names like "arbitrage." Others are considered illegitimate, and are called disreputable things like "stock manipulation."

3/

A hypothetical Martian observing all this through a telescope could not tell you which kinds of bets were honest and which were dishonest, because the difference isn't about any objective standard, but rather, about power.

4/

The strategies of powerful people are legit, while the strategies of their would-be dethroners are not legit. Sometimes, even outright frauds are OK if they're done by people with enough power.

Masterclass with super investors is one of the best books covering the investment strategies & journey of renowned domestic investors. Our summary has been segregated in 2 parts, A) Common traits in investment ideologies of these stalwarts B) Investor specific key takeaways (2/n)

A)Let's look at a few common points in these Stalwarts' investment ideologies 1)Invest (higher % of portfolio) when you have conviction backed by sound logic 2)You need to be bullish on India to make investments in Indian cos. bcoz majority of Indian cos. are domestically focused

3. New Bull markets have new leaders when a bull markets ends the stocks which have gained the most falls the most 4. The entry price that you pay for a company should be very cheap so that even if your assumptions go wrong in future you don't end up losing money (4/n)

5. We get attached to stocks which have given us a lot of returns in past even though in current & future expected scenarios they seem overvalued 6. Focus on art of disciplined selling-it's imp. to have a sound selling mechanism just buying at right price wont create wealth.(5/n)
