Analyzing Theoretical Scenarios on Open Positions | Advanced Options Trading at tastytrade

Options involve risk and are not suitable for all investors as the special risks inherent to options trading may expose investors to potentially significant losses. Please read the Characteristics and Risks of Standardized Options at
tastytrade.com/disclosures/ before deciding to invest in options.

In this video tutorial, we walk through the process of analyzing an open trading position using a vertical call spread as an example. We go into detail on viewing theoretical scenarios, under different price movements, theta decay, and other metrics, using specific dates. Furthermore, we take a closer look at incorporating trade 'legs' into the analysis and theoretical calculations, the impact of varying implied volatilities, and the potential of adding an additional leg to your net position.
