For the options trader who knows the basics and has made a handful of real trades, this course is designed to get you from being simply "aware" of the concepts to being able to scan for setups, choose the right options strategy, and correctly place high probability trades. Even if you have traded options for years but have yet to find consistent success, we highly suggest you complete this curriculum before moving the Advanced section. Don't let the name fool you, this Intermediate course is full of very advanced topics that the vast majority of traders never fully understand.
Good sound advice reinforcing what I already know but others may or may not. It's better to make your decisions objectively knowing your odds and true position than to be falsely overconfident, blindly going into a meat grinder.

Verrry interesting. I was never interested in numbers until now and I just opened an account. I have a strong feeling I'll be cutting waaay back on fishing and golf for this. Great presentation, Kirk. You got me...
Haha - I don't want to take too much time from your fishing and golf! Remember, now you can autotrade with OA too ;)
Clarity duration and content—information was presented clearly, the length was perfect and the content compelling to move to next video.
Glad you are enjoying the "flow" of the lessons Mel! Thanks for the feedback!
At 70 and disabled, anything that can teach me to where I simply understand is very valuable. Thank you Kirk, well done.
Very welcome Jim!
