Free, no obligation Introduction to Options Course

You don’t have to be a Certified Financial Advisor (C.F.A.) to take continuing education courses in the Futures Option Market.  Although if you were, you could get continuing education credits by completing this course.

Learning through video presentation, Q and A, and text, I found these videos helpful for me to brush up on my option knowledgebase as well and recommend everyone who either has options trading experience or wants to learn options for the first time, I found these tools to be invaluable and hope you do too.

If you are like me, a life long learner, you will benefit from an hour and 11 minutes’ worth of topical videos: Introduction to Options course.

From Chapters such as “What is an Option? To “getting to know underlying Futures” discussions about exercise price, expiration dates, Call and Put descriptions, exercise and assignments, understanding the difference: European vs. American style, Moneyness, time and intrinsic value of the option, Profit and Loss, Theoretical pricing, to name just a few of the Interactive course chapters.

What Happened in those 8 Minutes?

Posted on by efuturesadmin

U.S. stock benchmarks fell and Treasury yields jumped to start the week, as investors remained rattled by the Federal Reserve’s resolve to keep fighting inflation even if it causes some economic pain. US indices have retreated quickly to their 50-day moving averages and the VIX is back above 26. Crude prices moved higher, with WTI up some 3%, back above $95. EU natural gas prices saw the first significant selling in some time on reports that Germany has pushed gas storage up to 83%, which in turn has helped propel the Euro back above parity. With no signs of a détente in the Russia-Ukraine war, EU officials remain vociferous they will be able to reach a deal on structural reforms on the power market to offset the energy crisis facing those economies.

Trading 201: Trading Futures Spreads – Basic But Important Strategy

“A Basic And Important Strategy For Commodities Traders Using Spread Trading.”
By: Mark O’Brien, Cannon Trading Commodities Broker
Over my 20+ year career as a commodities broker, I have studied and traded a wide range of approaches to trading the futures markets. From candlestick formations to the commodity channel index, from condors to turtle trading, there’s an enormous catalog of tools and methods available for traders to consider.
One method I have noticed is surprisingly underrepresented among retail traders is futures spread trading, where a single position in the market consists of the simultaneous purchase of one futures contract and sale of a related futures contract as a unit. I call it surprising because some of the most invested players in futures trading – and arguably the most sophisticated – include large speculators and commercial firms who regularly employ spreads. This includes traders in the markets who often actually buy and sell the physical commodities we trade. Farmers, ranchers and other food growers along with food producers, petroleum companies who either drill for oil or natural gas or refine these products – or both, financial institutions with enormous holdings in treasuries, equities or currencies, mining interests and their buyers – all these areas of production and distribution employ spreads from time to time as an important aspect of their businesses. Indeed, spread trading is a fundamental and essential part of the commodities futures markets.
At the same time, despite the remarkable increase in interest and in the growth in the volume of the futures markets over the years, spread trading is typically dismissed by most other traders in search of a trading strategy. With so much attention focused on other approaches related to straightforward directional trading (and within that category, day-trading) it’s not difficult to see how spread trading can be overlooked.

Bullet Points: Highlights and Announcements

By Mark O’Brien Senior Broker

Energy: September Natural gas touched $10.028 per million British thermal units intraday yesterday, a 14-yr. high. It closed at $9.193 – a ± $9,000 per contract correction off its highs, yet still more than twice the price a year ago.

Financials: If you turn to any financial news source, you’d think the only thing traders are thinking about this week is the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City’s annual Economic Policy Symposium. This is a 3-day gathering of about 120 economists and policy makers from government agencies and academia – including many central bankers – from around the world. It all takes place in Jackson Hole, Wyoming starting tomorrow.

Why is it important? The symposium kicks off with a speech given by the Chairman of the U.S. Federal Reserve, currently Jerome Powell. While not an FOMC meeting where central bank policy is communicated and interest rates are set, the speech has become an opportunity to define the Fed’s. comprehensive policy approach on a global stage to a far-reaching audience. Thus, it has become highly anticipated – arguably more so than past symposium speeches given the current historic rise in inflation globally, and particularly in the U.S. and Europe. Probably the overarching question traders are listening for Chair Powell to answer (he almost certainly will not come right out and say it) is whether the Fed will raise rates by 50 or 75 basis points when Federal Reserve members meet in September to consider monetary policy.
