Bear Call Ladder - Tutorial Bear Call Ladder Description: A Bear Call Ladder entails selling a call that is in-the-money, buying a call that is at-the-money, and buying a call that is out-of-the-money for the same underlying instrument with a higher exercise date and price. The Bear Call Ladder also known as the Short Call Ladder is an extension of the Bear Call Spread. By buying another call at a higher strike, the position assumes uncapped reward potential if the stock soars. Maximum gain for the short call ladder strategy is limited when the underlying stock price goes down. Market Opinion Bullish. When to Use A bear call ladder is used when the trader or investor believes that the stock will rise and also experience volatility, and is aiming to make a capital gain. Example XYZ is trading at $48.00 on May 17, 2004. Sell the August 2004 50 strike call for $4.20. Buy the August 2004 55 strike call for $2.40. Buy the August 2004 60 strike call for $0.80.

The Millionaire Mind Intensive Option Basics - Basic Options Trading Strategies Here I want to cover some of the option basics. In particular I want to focus on understanding the motivation behind buying or selling an option. From there, we'll look at some basic option strategies to better understand the building blocks to more advanced strategies. If you are brand new to options, see 'what is an option contract?' One reason people are often intimidated by options is that they appear very complex. Most people think about options in terms of buying a call or buying a put. Now, let me ask you this... if I am the buyer of an option, who is the seller? The answer is... the options market maker. Market Makers and the other side of the options trade In the options market, there is a market maker who MUST take the other side of your order if it is at his ask price (if he is selling) or bid price (if he is buying). The market maker doesn't just sell options, he may buy them as well to offset his risk, to lower position sizes and so forth. Who is that person? A. B.
Stock Options Analysis & Options Trading Tools | Options Research & Technology Services - ORATS ShadowTrader Does Pairs Trading Work in Canada? | Canadian Investment Review Arbitrage opportunities exist when profits can be earned from spread trading, the simultaneous purchase and sale of similar securities. A trader buys the one that she believes is relatively cheap while shorting the relatively expensive security in the hope that the spread will narrow. Assuming that her views are well-founded, losses can still result, in part because of what the academic finance literature puts under the rubric "limits to arbitrage." Assuming reasonable liquidity levels, these limits stem from two sources of risk: fundamental risk and noise trader risk. The first exists if the long and short sides of the spread are not perfect substitutes (as is almost always the case). Noise trader risk, defined to be the risk that mispricing becomes worse in the short run, has been famously documented by Lamont and Thaler (2003) with the Royal Dutch/Shell case. This case notwithstanding, in most realistic arbitrage situations both fundamental risk and noise trader risk are factors.
