    Options are not suitable for all investors and carry significant risk.  Option investors can rapidly lose the value of their investment in a short period of time and incur permanent loss by expiration date.  Certain complex options strategies carry additional risk.  There are additional costs associated with option strategies that call for multiple purchases and sales of options, such as spreads, straddles, among others, as compared with a single option trade.

Options Block

Superb. Thoughtful, funny and wide ranging show for learning and understanding options trading.

Livhk ,

Very disappointing

I am a relatively new listener, however i had to turn of the show after 5 minus - I am here to learn about option strategies, not to listen to Apple hating rhetorics. I get it you don't like Apple's platform but at least show you are not ignorant of Apple products if do decide to talk about it. All iPad - "Mac syncing requires a wire plugging into iTunes" - hello - have you heard of wireless syncing, iCloud sync for documents and apps ? and that the coming iPad Mini "is the stupidest idea they have come up with" - oh Really ? why ? I am fine if you hold a bearish outlook on Apple stock - I would love to hear your analysis on valuation, but a baseless claim that "3 years later the stock will definitely worth a a lot less then today ?" Such thoughtless comments leads me to seriously doubt the quality of the content on the main topic.
