The "daily Call" From Option Alpha: Options Trading | Stock Options | Stock Trading | Trading Online

Hey everyone, welcome back. On today’s daily call, we’re going to talk about how long should you learn before trading options or I guess really, how long should you prepare, study, do any paper trading, any of that type of stuff before you really start getting into options trading. I think this is obviously a little bit subjective to how you learn. Some people just generally first (to start off) learn very quickly. They grasp concepts very easily. They can hear things one or two times and totally understand it and it’s cemented in their brain. Then other people obviously, you just need a little bit more time and that’s just a different way of learning. Here’s my suggestion though. My suggestion is if you’ve never traded options before, have no clue, I definitely suggest you spend a good couple of weeks or months depending on how quickly you learn just trying to understand the terminology and hear the framework and hear people talk about it, see people making trades, just trying to get your feet wet in the eco
