so one of our YouTube followers came up
\nwith a great trade idea for an options
\ntrade in Google with a huge range over
\nwhich a really nice profit can be made
\nI’m the head trader of SMB capitals
\noptions trading desk here in midtown
\nManhattan and the options traders on our
\ndesk are constantly seeking outstanding
\nsetups like the one that I’ll be
\nbreaking down for you in this video this
\ntrade has a statistical 84 percent
\nprobability of profit for a very nice
\nreturn over an extremely wide range of
\nGoogle prices I’ll show you how this
\ntrader set things up to really stack the
\nodds in his favor and the trade is
\npretty easy to understand so stick
\naround I think you’re gonna find this
\neye-opening
\n[Music]\nhi I’m Seth Freiburg and I’m the head
\ntrader of SMB capitals options trading
\ndesk SMB capital is a proprietary
\ntrading firm located in midtown
\nManhattan and we provide capital for
\noptions and equity traders from all over
\nthe world trading both remotely and in
\nour offices here in New York City now
\nI’d like to suggest that you click on
\nour subscribe button right now so that
\nyou don’t miss any of our free trading
\nvideos that we produce for traders and
\ninvestors all over the world they’re
\nreally very valuable ok so we did a
\nvideo about a month ago where we went
\nthrough a campaign of options trades
\nknown as iron condors where we tracked
\nAmazon stock throughout this year
\nshowing how we could have setup every 60
\ndays throughout the year a two month
\nlong trade that could have
\nhypothetically produced over a 50%
\nreturn if methodically traded throughout
\nthe year at the end of the video I guess
\ntraders to suggest similar trades for
\nstocks that the viewers followed and we
\ntrack a few of them to see how they’d
\nactually turn out and we got some really
\ninteresting ideas in so Scott summer had
\nsuggested that we take a look at the
\nfollowing trade which is known as an
\niron Condor in Google for the December
\nmonthly expiration which takes place on
\nDecember 20th now let’s break down what
\nScott is suggesting here and we’ll take
\na look at the risks and rewards and her
\nin the trade so you can get a feel for
\nwhat he’s actually suggesting so on the
\nday that Scott is suggesting we entered
\nthe trade which was October 25th 57 days
\nbefore the expiration of these options
\nGoogle was trading at 12 66 at that time
\nas you can see Google was trading up
\naround its all-time intraday high which
\nwas 1289 back in May
\nso here’s exactly what Scott is
\nsuggesting he’s looking for us to sell
\ntwo of the 1,400 Google calls and buy as
\nprotection 2 of the 1520 Google calls
\nthen he was suggesting that we slide all
\nthe way down to the Google 1100 puts and
\nsell 2 of those and then as protection
\nby two of the 980 puts that combination
\nof a short call closer to the money
\nprotected by a long call farther from
\nthe money combined with a short put
\ncloser to the money and a long put
\nfarther from them
\nthat entire combination is what is known
\nas an iron condor two options income
\ntraders now from a cash flow standpoint
\nyou can see that the 1520 calls cost $76
\nbecause as you know each call represents
\n100 shares of stock so the calculation
\nis 2 times 100 times the cost of the
\ncall which comes to 76 dollars with
\nsimilar math you can see that we
\nreceived 962 dollars for selling the to
\n1,400 calls we also received 1028
\ndollars for selling the to 1100 puts and
\nfinally we had to pay two hundred twenty
\ndollars to buy the two protective 980
\nputs so as you can see overall the trade
\nproduces a little under 1700 dollars of
\nincome which was close to the range of
\npricing that Scot had suggested for the
\ntrade now let’s take a look at the
\nunderlying logic of the trade now as you
\nprobably know a call option entitles you
\nto the right to buy 100 shares at the
\nstrike price of a call option at any
\ntime before it expires and a put option
\nentitles you to sell 100 shares of the
\nstock at that puts a strike price at any
\ntime before the option expires so in the
\ncase of the two options we sold the 1400
\nand the 1100 unless Google gets to 1,400
\nor below 11 under those options will
\nhave no value on expiration date so what
\nthat means is that as long as Google
\nstays between 1100 and 1400 between
\ntrade entry and when the options expire
\nthen all of the options in the iron
\nCondor will expire worthless why let’s
\nthink about it exactly who is going to
\nexercise a 1400 call that we sold them
\nif Google is trading at less than 1400
\nno one is going to buy shares from you
\nfor more than they’re trading at in the
\nopen market so the 1400 call you sold
\nthem has no value yet you were paid cash
\nfor that call the same is obviously true
\nof the 1520 call which you bought as
\nprotection that goes out worthless also
\nnow conversely if Google is trading
\nsomewhere above 1100 then no one’s going
\nto exercise those puts and sell you
\ntheir shares at Google at lower than
\nthey’re selling in the open market
\nso those options are obviously also
\nworthless and for that same reason the
\nlong nine eighty options are also
\nworthless on expiration so all four
\noptions expire worthless and therefore
\nyou just get to keep the cash that you
\ngot in the beginning of the trade a
\nlittle less than $1,700 in other words
\nso essentially what Scott was suggesting
\nwas that it’s reasonable to think that
\nsomewhere around Google’s all-time highs
\nmight act as resistance for Google and
\nso the 1,400 call we sold is unli less
\nunlikely to do anything but expire
\nworthless because at that time 1400 was
\nmore than 100 points above the all-time
\nhighs and similarly he made the judgment
\nthat since Google has not been down
\nthrough the 1100 level since early
\nsummer that it has a reasonable bet that
\nthe 1100 puts we sold will also expire
\nworthless so that’s the underlying logic
\nof the trade and the technical analysis
\nthe Scot made in formulating his
\nsuggested trade now before you run
\nthrough exactly how a professional
\ntrader would have handled this iron
\nCondor options trade and how the trade
\nturned out I wanted to mention that
\nwe’re currently running a 2 our free
\nintensive workshop at the moment where
\nwe’ll be teaching you 3 real-world
\noption strategies that professional
\ntraders use including a really simple
\nbut incredibly effective strategy that
\nsome of the greatest investors in the
\nworld like Warren Buffett used all the
\ntime plus an options trading strategy
\nthat has a statistical 80 percent
\nprobability of profit month and in month
\nout plus an option strategy that you can
\nemploy with the stock that you like
\nwhere you’ll make your target profit
\nwhether the stock goes up goes nowhere
\nor even goes down a small percentage
\nthen you should check out the free
\noptions class that we’re currently
\nrunning just go ahead and click the link
\nthat should be appearing now at the top
\nright hand corner of the screen that
\nwill open the free registration page in
\na new window so don’t worry you won’t
\nlose this video or you can just head
\nover to options class com to register
\nfor this free intensive workshop it is a
\nrare opportunity for retail traders and
\ninvestors to learn directly from Wall
\nStreet traders but that’s exactly what
\nyou’ll be getting through this free
\nonline workshop so click the link to
\nsign up now and though
\nso let’s now take a look at what
\nhappened on this trade and how a
\nprofessional trader would have handled
\nit so we’ll move over to November 7th
\nand you’ll see that Google has blasted
\nthrough its all-time high and is now
\ntrading at thirteen twenty two now I
\nwant you to focus on the short puts at
\n1100 and the long puts at 980 that
\ncombination when we first sold them as
\nthe put side of the iron Condor sold for
\nfour dollars and four cents why do I say
\nthat because we received five hours and
\nfourteen cents for the 1100 foot and we
\npaid out a dollar ten for the 980 puts
\nso the net effect of that was to receive
\nfour dollars and four cents at the
\noutside of the trade so the short put
\nand the long put combined is called a
\nput spread and as you can see the value
\nof that spread has shrunk down to 56
\ncents on November 7th because the short
\nput at 1100 has shrunk down in value
\nimmensely and the long put has also but
\nat a slower pace because it wasn’t worth
\nthat much in the first place and it has
\ndone that because the stock has rallied
\nso the market is giving less and less
\nvalue to all the puts so what that means
\nand is that I can close that side of the
\ntrade for 86% less than I was paid for
\nit so a professional trader like the
\nguys on our desk here they see that and
\nthey say to themselves okay look I was
\npaid four dollars and fourteen cents for
\nthat spread originally and I have that
\nfour hundred fourteen dollars in catch
\nfor each of those spreads that I sold on
\nthe put side Y can now close that side
\nof the trade just by paying fifty six
\ndollars for each of those spreads so I
\ncan net out eighty six percent of the
\noriginal credit I received and here’s
\nthe important part I have no more
\ndownside risk on the trade Google could
\ndrop to any number it could drop to zero
\nand I would have no risk at all on the
\ndownside of the trade because if I did
\nnot close that side of the trade and by
\nexpiration day Google for some reason
\nhad a huge sell-off to say 1075 thereby
\ndropping below a hundred I would be
\nforced to buy Google at 1,100 even
\nthough they’re worth only 1075 taking a
\ntwenty five dollar loss on each share
\nand I sold two of those puts
\nso that would be a loss of $5,000 if
\nthat were to happen so to eliminate that
\nrisk after squeezing 86 percent of the
\nvalue out of those put spreads the
\nprofessional trader would scalp the put
\nside in other words close the put side
\nof the trade and just pocket the profit
\nyou see we only have to pay $112 to
\nclose the put spread but we originally
\nreceived eight hundred eight leaving us
\nwith a profit of 696 dollars and more
\nimportantly from a traders point of view
\nno risk to the downside now if we move
\nforward to December third you’ll see
\nthat Google has now sold off a bit
\nmoving farther from that 1,400 short
\ncall for which we’re still on the hook
\nif Google rallies up to 1,400 and we’d
\nhave to buy back those shares at 1,400
\nwhen the stock is trading higher than
\nthat so now let’s take a look at the
\ncall side of the trade and you can
\nreadily see that the market is assigning
\nvery little value to the possibility of
\nGoogle getting to 1,400 in the 19 days
\nbefore there’s options expire
\nyou see those 1,400 calls well when we
\nfirst enter the trade we were paid four
\ndollars and 81 cents for those well now
\nthey’re trading for 38 cents and the 15
\n20 calls that we paid 38 cents for at
\nthe beginning of the trade those are
\nworth 28 cents so the implications of
\nthis is huge it means that we can buy
\nthe call side back that call spread for
\n10 cents when we were originally paid
\nfour dollars and 43 cents for them in
\nother words we can buy them back for
\nless than 3% of the value that we were
\npaid for the call spread originally and
\nthat of course would end the trade
\nbecause we’ve now closed all four legs
\nof the iron Condor so Google can now go
\nto zero or to infinity and we have no
\nrisk the trades over instead let’s tally
\nup what has actually taken place on this
\ntrade so we’ve just closed the call side
\nfor a dime and as you can see from the
\ncalculation that leaves us with 866
\ndollars of profit from the call side of
\nthe trade because our cost to close was
\nonly $20 but our original cash received
\nwas 886 dollars so putting it all
\ntogether we made
\none hundred ninety-six dollars from
\nscalping the put side and with Google
\nselling off we were able to scale scalp
\nthe call side for an additional eight
\nhundred sixty six dollars for a total
\nprofit of over fifteen hundred dollars
\nsimply by making the bet that Google
\nwould not rally way past its all-time
\nhigh or sell-off down to a level that it
\nhas not seen since early summer that
\nsounds like a reasonable bet to me and
\nit turned out very well which you’d
\nprobably expect from a trade with an
\neighty four percent probability of
\nprofit in the first place so this video
\nreally had two very important takeaways
\nthe first one involved how easy it is to
\nset up a trade that gives you a huge
\nrunway around the market price of a
\nstock you follow through the use of an
\niron Condor but the far more important
\nto take away is that a professional
\ntrader knows when to shut down risk when
\nthe remaining profit potential of any
\naspect of any trade is minuscule
\ncompared to the remaining risk of the
\ntrade with options income trading these
\nrisk reward relationships change over
\ntime and it’s critical to understand how
\nthose relationships change and then to
\ntake your profits Pro traders are
\nconstantly thinking about risk and
\nreward and trades and if you want to get
\nto the level of a professional trader
\nyou need to start thinking that way also
\nnow just to remind you as I said earlier
\nif you enjoyed this video and learned
\nsomething valuable from it and you’d

\nreal-world option strategies that
