,At TradersExpo Las Vegas Jay Soloff: The big thing with options is whether you want to buy or whether you want to sell. Buying can produce outsized returns but it's a low-probability event. Selling is an 80% probability of success but lower amounts, to try to sell more frequently. This includes selling a put spread, selling a put close to a stock price and then buying another one below. That limits your risk and caps the amount of margin you need for the trade. And we mix in a straddle, when you're buying a call and a put. And he explains condors and butterflies, protective spreads where you're selling and buying at different strikes, limiting your risk.
