Markets look like 2015-16. Probably going back to all time highs, but will probably go sideways until fed signals rate cut, Recently sold 25% of my $285k portfolio comprising of plummeting stocks that were recommended by certain financial RU-vidrs, quite devastating!
not their fault, the stock market seems to be more of a casino for gamblers now than a place for investors. even if you were averaging down on ailing companies, its your duty to properly research, buying the dip does not guarantee a rebound
The issue is most people have the “I will do it myself mentality” but not skilled enough. Ideally, advisors are perfect reps for investing jobs and at first-hand experience, my portfolio has yielded over 350%, since covid-outbreak to date, summing up nearly $1m.
How can I participate in this? I aspire to establish a secure financlal future and am eager to participate. Who is the driving force behind your success?
I've shuffled through investment coaches and yes, they can be positively impactful to an individual's portfolio, but do your due diligence to find a coach with grit, one that withstood the 08' crash. For me, Vivian Jean Wilhelm turned out to be better and smarter than all the advisors I ever worked with till date, I’ve never met anyone with as much conviction.
Becoming a good trader takes time and patience. When i first got into trading i was liquidated twice, and lost my entire mortgage deposit. I could have given up, but decided to learn how to trade and put it into practice. 4 years later and i am glad i made that decision.
The best course of action if you lack market knowledge is to ask a consultant or investing coach for guidance or assistance. Speaking with a consultant helped me stay afloat in the market and grow my portfolio to about 65% since January, even though I know it sounds obvious or generic. I believe that is the most effective way to enter the business at the moment.
My CFA *’Rachel Sarah Parrish’* , a renowned figure in her line of work. I recommend researching her credentials further. She has many years of experience and is a valuable resource for anyone looking to navigate the financial market.
This video really drilled in, just how much analysis is put into stock market. For a guy who acts like a wsb bro, Benjamin is actually pretty intelligent. And the Barclays people are no slouch either.
The funny thing is, is that WSB used to be filled with people like Benjamin who are extremely intelligent but used WSB to let loose and not take the stock market so seriously….I’d put my money on the idea that Ben is part of the crowd who was on WSB before it’s blow up into a meme wasteland.
I often wonder how top level investors are able to become millionaires off investing. . I’ve been sitting on over $545K equity from a home sale and I’m not sure where to go from here, is it a good time to buy into stocks or do I wait for another opportunity?
Yes, a good number of folks are raking in huge 6 figure gains in this downtrend, but such strategies are mostly successfully executed by folks with in depth market knowledge
I agree. Based on personal experience working with an investment advlsor, I currently have $985k in a well-diversified portfollo that has experienced exponential growth. It's not only about having money to invest in st0cks, but you also need to be knowledgeable.
How can I participate in this? I sincerely aspire to establish a secure financlal future and am eager to participate. Who is the driving force behind your success?
Thanks for sharing. I curiously searched for her full name and her website popped up after scrolling a bit. I looked through her credentials and did my due diligence before contacting her.
Putting well-earned money into the stock market can't be over emphasised for first-time investors, unlike a bank where interest is sure thing! Well, basically times are uncertain, the market is out of control, and banks are gradually failing. I am working on a ballpark estimate of $5M for retirement, and I have a good 6-figure loaded up for this, could there be any opportunity for a boomer like me?
Personally, I would say have a mentor. Not sure where you will get an experienced one, but if your knowledge of the market is limited, it seems like a good bet.
Some individuals minimize the importance of counsel until they make regrettable mistakes. A few summers ago, following a protracted divorce, I needed a significant push to keep my firm afloat. I looked for licensed advisors and found someone with the highest qualifications. She has contributed to my reserve increasing from $275k to $850k despite inflation.

Kenna Muriel Hesseling is the licensed fiduciary I use. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment
Basically the institutions do some analysis magic to find where the robinhood users are likely to lose money and positions themselves to make profit when robinhood users make stupid choices
@@chipskylark8475 that‘s probably the largest portion of the secret recipe. Most likely they use good old IVRank and IVPercentile. The rest is stacking a few additional criteria that were historically correlated with tanking IV. I like the idea of underlying IV vs. sector IV and IV vs. realized volatility. Both should be useful in identifying IV spikes.
I’m not kidding when I say that the market crash and high inflation have me really stressed out and worried about retirement. I've been in the red for a while now and although people say these crisis has it perks, I'm losing my mind but I get it Investing is a long-term game, so focus on the long run.
The market is volatile at this time, hence i will suggest you get yourself an inv-advisor/coach that can provide you with entry and exit points on the financial assets you focus on.
I'm sure the idea of a coach might sound generic or controversial to a few, but new study by investopedia found that demand for inv-coaches sky-rocketed by over 41.8% since the pandemic, and based on firsthand encounter, I can say for certain their skillsets are topnotch. I was able to raise a whooping $4.5M that set me up for a comfortable retirement after 5 years of subsequent investment. Exactly cost me $800k capital, was confident enough cos funds where in my trading account.
Certain Ai companies are rumoured to be overvalued and might cause a market correction, I’d suggest you go with a managed portfolio, but even those don’t perform so well, so it’s best you reach out to a proper fiduciary to guide you, that’s what works for my spouse and I.
I find myself at a crossroads, uncertain whether to liquidate my $150,000 stock portfolio. I'm seeking advice on the best strategy to capitalize on this current market.
With the help of an investment advisor, I was able to diversify my $550K portfolio across multiple markets, and the second quarter, I was able to earn over $350K in net profit.
The investment-advisor that guides me is *Sharon Louise Count* she popular and has quite a following, so it shouldn't be a hassle to find her, just search her
I just found what I expected to be a technical analysis video and ended up finding the funniest and most pedagogic channel on the internet. Came looking for copper, found gold. Keep it up!!
Thanks for continuing updates and for keeping us financially Educated! Regardless of how bad it gets on the economy, I'd rather trade the crypto market as it's more profitable than holding. I made a Hundred thousand dollars from trading last year even though I barely trade myself.
Trading without professional guide... Huh I laugh you, because you will remain where you are or even make huge losses that will stop you from trading, this has been one of the biggest problem to new traders
Mrs Sonia Dixon was my hope during the 'bear summer' last year. I did so many mistakes but also learned so much from it, and of course from Sonia Dixon.
Sonia Dixon's analyzes go beyond superficial trends. It delves into technical, fundamental and sentiment analysis, providing a holistic view of the market.
@@coolplaces123 While that is true, Thetagang strategies rely concentrate on the passage of time for their positions to remain profitable, while Vegagang concentrates on low historical volatility to generate profits.
😂, I fell in love with lucrativeness trading in the financial markets, it has been of massive help in accumulating profits. Anybody can make satisfying gains from either long term investments or DCA, consistently earning that $11k weekly from dividends is always very rewarding

🥺, that's a very thought out pattern of incomes generation, since they've likely studied for about 4yrs to be experienced and expertise in their fields, and with their firms providing them with quality resources for them to handle money banking with a pro shouldn't be a bad cause. I already left him a message and he replied calmly, I've been able to go through his bio and his accomplishments and accolades are undeniably astounding, he's also a 7figure trader with series 7 license and he's CNN acknowledged, I'm wagering he's worth investing in 💙
To succeed the stock market, you must review and put into consideration the dynamics of your trading assets prior investing. Analysis based on research is vital which is why, I recommend trading with a professional if you don’t know the basics.
Wow! I trade too and it’s highly lucrative. I personally think it’s best to have guided strategies of a professional instead of going out bad and making the wrong trading decisions. I just discovered his exceptional resume when I made a Google search of his full names. He appears to be knowledgeable and well accredited!!!

Crying tears of gold… I can’t believe I am just finding this channel now. Oh wait I was knee deep WSB DD for years and Theta burn was slowing me down. Thanks Ben❤🎉
If you wanna be successful, you most take responsibility for your emotions, not place the blame on others. In addition to make you feel more guilty about your faults, pointing the finger at others will only serve to increase your sense of personal accountability. There's always a risk in every investment, yet people still invest and succeed. You must look outward if you wanna be successful in life.
The stock market rally run is gone, but I'm not sure if equities will swiftly recover, keep falling, or fluctuate in a narrow range for a few weeks, or if things will quickly get worse. I'm under pressure to increase my $85k reserve.
@@lordmartinofleithandcuddy6541 Nope, my supervisor dismissed my proposal as too much like finance and not enough like economics (I study Econ), so I was effectively forced into doing some uninspired time series forecasting instead. Just one of many reasons I dislike my university lol. Thank you for asking though.
With bonds overpriced, gold overpriced, and real estate overpriced, the only place I found wise to put money is the trade market because from my experience it’s paid off more than any other investment I’ve gotten into.
@@Novakissla Herman Jonas, an astute trade analyst is the brain behind my success. I've gotten into a plethora of assets with $24k spread across stocks (options and futures) for the short term and Roth IRA, index funds, and ETFs, for the long term.

@Allandexx How can I reach him, please? I've seen good recommendations of his work elsewhere. I need help with my trades. I'm ready to pay for his services.
I appreciate the feedback. I reached out to him via the mail you provided and we talked at length. I found him to be verified. I’m glad that I signed up and I've begun my journey with him. Thanks again.
So I've been binge watching all your stuff today and I can't stop thinking that if someone with your knowledge isn't a millionaire by now, myself attempting this would be just handing money to some hedge fund. I think for now I'm good with the 8-10% return/y, but I'm going to keep watching and feel stupid.
Thanks for the breakdown! 🤔 I have a quick question: 🤷♂️ I found these words 😅. (behave today finger ski upon boy assault summer exhaust beauty stereo over). Not sure how to use them, would appreciate help. 🙏
The market cycle actually has not met its balance, we continue onward round and round and round in circles while hanging tight for that tremendous victory on a colossal >support yet meanwhile we could constantly disregard the market promising and less promising times and remain completely contributed. Enormous thanks to Shanita Creswell for assisting me with acquiring over 25btc in about a month and a half by carrying out her technique and following her guide.....
Yes. You're right it's not watching all videos and wasting time on strategies, I was ignorant doing so till I Met expert Mrs. Shanita Creswell sometime early last year at a startup funding event in New York City. She had some interesting things to say about the state of algorithmic trading today, very obviously I'm seeing the results, and my trading is going smoothly.
Investing in Stocks and Forex is the wisest, it's a place where millionaires and future billionaires come to get inspired. If you've not been involved in any you're missing out. Most importantly If you know how to trade you can make a ton of money no matter where you find yourself
Bitcoin is the best coin to invest in fast rising and if you are lucky to have a good broker then I believe you have absolutely nothing to worry about because you are in for a finicial uplift.
As a beginner who don't understand how Bitcoin trade/forex trading really works and you really want to make profit from it. I will advise you to first start working with a professional broker
My smooth brain even has problems understanding your very clear explanations. Had to replay that one part with the "longer short options" a few times and still didn't fully grasp the concept. Thanks for trying to teach me something though!
@@blubaylon the market volatility in some tech and meme stocks such like Tesla has skyrocketed in 2021 so Barclays has made big money trading options because there strategy works if the market goes up and down.
Increased retailed options trading was already noticeably higher last year because of the pandemic and people locked indoors. It's not that hard for Barclay's analysts to notice this, they are paid a ton of money to monitor the market and work long hours to produce reports like this in a matter of months.
Great content, as always! Just a quick off-topic question: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (air carpet target dish off jeans toilet sweet piano spoil fruit essay). How can I transfer them to Binance?
Very engaging. Tried many trading bot/indicator out there none works out well, can someone recommend any, my finance is draining by the management of wrong people
I know Maria Hamilton. she obviously brings a lot of profit in trading forex-stock market, but more importantly I think Maria is a tough person in an industry that demands clairvoyance, her trading is incredibly great
I and my brother have been investing with her for over a year and I've made good profit of $882,030 that's not much but I'm happy with the progress, I don't have to look for jobs anymore
I spoke with one of the guys on that S&T group a week ago, they’re mostly based in NYC and the way they speak about WSB is as if they ENVY them. 99% of reports are trash but this one is a beauty
The amount of work and dedication put into the stock market analysis is just incredible. It makes me little sad to think that this giant effort could be directed at adding real value to the economy instead of taking money from others
Nope. Real value is being added to the economy. Money is limited and needs to be directed to the most productive sectors whilst minimising risk and opportunity cost. That is exactly what is happening here. Money being used in the most economical way. "profit" is not inherently evil. Profit just simply implies that the output is valued more than the sum of the inputs.....or put another way, the creation of value.
@@nicholaslefebvre6772 First of all by no means I am the expert in this. Second I have never said that profit is evil. I think profit is an incentive system that works pretty well, except a few cases like this. I may also misunderstood your answer, but it seems to me that you think that this kind of stock analysis aims to accumulate money in the most productive sectors. In my opinion it is mistake because this analysis is about buying and selling literally any stock option (as long as there is discralency in the volatility) just to make money. Furthermore in the video it is literally said that this tactic is crested for extracting money from newbie investors. This is drastically different from Warren Buffet style of investing, where you investigate the company deeply and consider long term consequences which actually leads to efficient money distribution. Profit is not evil, but instead of focusing on extracting money from others this brainpower could be directed at solving supply chain problems/industrial problems/technolgy creation/ etc Also I think that people are free to pursue whatever they want and if it is this kind of stock trading, they should be allowed to. I'm just saying that it is not optimal.
Taking money is not real value but implied value At life's end...you won't be counting the money you made the deal you did...you be counting the friends u collected, family you loved & health you enjoyed That's real value That's what he was talking about.
I just immediately download all your videos and try to put it into action. This one was a bit more difficult so I might have to rewatch a bit and research more online.
@Benjamin Can you please repost the Barclays downloaded paper report. The original link is not working. And are there any platform that is suing these strategies?
Just a quick correction. At 3:25 you say, "The higher the implied volatility, the more expensive they become." In reality, that's backwards. There is a true volatility (which we don't know) which informs how options *should* be priced. Their actual price is then used to calculate an implied volatility, hence the name. It's essentially saying, "in order for the option to have this price, it implies that traders believe the underlying has Y value for volatility." So in short Volatility (hopefully calculated based on something real) > Price > Implied Volatility.
@@artvandelay9131 I'm not wrong though. It's a bit like saying "the higher the market cap, the more expensive a stock becomes". What's actually happening is that there's a real, underlying value to the shares of that stock (a value that no one actually knows). That value informs investors to what the price should be (through their own calculations) and they price the stock accordingly. That price then yields a market cap. Options are the same. There's an underlying volatility, which we don't know and can't know. But their price at any given moment yields an implied volatility value. Big news days increase the real volatility of an option, and the price of those options is reflected in that increased real value. But implied volatility comes *FROM* price, it doesn't inform price. I'm just calling the direction into question, not the idea that volatility is tied to price.
@@CSpottsGamingyou’re wrong implied volatility has a direct correlation with the price of an option the higher the iv the more expensive the option contract becomes ex: earnings, fomc days
@@AM-du2sw Dude I've already fought this fight, but I'm not wrong. They're not just correlated, the relationship is causal. But the direction of the causality is backwards in their statement. The price is used to calculate the implied volatility, but their statement implies that implied volatility is driving price. In reality, implied volatility is a plug value used to make the price work. There's an *actual underlying volatility* number which we can't see, we can only guess at it. That process of guessing informs the price and drives it to change. The price is then used to calculate an *implied volatility*. Implied volatility is basically saying, "If this option is priced fairly, here's the volatility that the price would imply." In theory that ties to the real volatility but in practice options are mispriced all the time (in other words, there's a difference between their true volatility and the volatility implied by the price). It's basically a question of which happens first. In the real world, their actual volatility changes first (with, say, JPow telling us what rate decision has been made), then investors reprice the option which changes the implied volatility. You and I are essentially saying the same thing, I think you've just misread my reply.
This Channel is Fundamentally undervalued. It’s trading below it’s Competition Average and therefore I‘m gonna be buying deep OTM Calls expiring January of 2022 with a Strike of 700.000k . Oh wait I‘m too broke for that 😕
I know most of you don't actually understand what he's saying (no shame in that, I didn't either), but try reading a little and understand the basics. Once you've polished your financial knowledge enough, come back to watch this masterpiece. This content shouldn't be free lol
Watch the previous video. He literally used his google search knowledge to take these reports from major investment banks' databases. These banks usually publish these reports to the public, but it is hard to find, and most of them are a few months old. Basically, trash diving outside a fancy hotel in the hope of finding expensive liquor thrown away by rich folks.
It isn't with the public these papers are hard to find. Combine that with the fact that it is written in a different language makes it very hard for anyone to access, especially /r/wallstreetbets users.
Are you saying to simply straddle a stock that’s gone nuts earlier that day? Is that an arbitrage situation? Just buy an ATM call and put on a stock with jacked up options premiums and profiting when it moves up, down, or loses volatility?
My friend has undergrad degree in finance major and he's having hard time following this still. Is it supposed to be this difficult to wrap your head around?
How long can such a strat work though? I mean, efficient market hypothesis and all. I see those historical returns, but can you really always depend on volatility returning to a low point in a reasonable amount of time? Are we just assuming the retail trader will continue to make otm option calls indefinitely?
It all depends on which stock you do it for. As for going long on a stock, you do research and analysis to get an idea if the volatility will rise or fall, you just have to find the right stocks.
There is no efficient market, otherwise Buffett and Burry would be homeless. And option sellers obviously get an insurance premium otherwise no one would take this risk profile
I don't suppose you could do a vid on all this "technical jargon" I'm new to learning about investing- and alot of channels seem use these terms freely, and i can't find much on what each term actually means, or why having a higher realised volatility than a predicted volatility is good
Wow, I can't believe you guys are discussing about Victoria she is now currently managing my account i just made my second withdrawal trading with her. I can't wait another two weeks to cashout again
I'm so short of words!. Mrs Victoria Quinn success story is all over the media. I think if you're new to trading or need to multiply your asset you should go through her. she and her team are the best when it comes to crypto investment.
Hi Benjamin, My son deals in daily gold pricing and foreign currency trading of the dollar and dollar yen. He assures me this market is impossible to be manipulated by banks or brokers, etc? Is he correct in this belief.... I have my doubts!
Where did you get you knowledge from about options? It’s sounds like dark magic to complicated for the general mortal, but when mastered it opens Sesames gate.
If your selling straddles, either your going to get assignment. So the premium must be juicy enough to make this worthwhile? Let’s try it and see how it works

Wonderful video, special remark to Prokofiev's Peter and the Wolf in the background. 10/10 would watch again even only for the background music to interesting topic ratio
Honestly, I think the best thing to do is to get help from a professional trusted trader. And this is because, going into the market without adequate knowledge/ expertise is total tragedy. I’ve learnt a lot from your videos , man.

@@danielsilas8788 Honestly, you have to allow yourself to be a beginner first. Consistency and patience leads to a successful result. I got Ryan Hans tho. He has been an amazing trader to me and with his strategies, I’ve been able to increase my portfolio by 120%. I recommend you speak to him.
I've been doing something similar for awhile, and what you want is to find a stock with weeklys where the options at the 30 delta range are worth at least 3 or more times the value of the stocks price with disproportionately high iv for weekly compared to the yearlys. Think >=100%iv weeklys verses 75%iv yearlys. Then wait for a decent dip, (at least 5 to 10% over a few days,) and create a covered call or pmcc position. Make sure your buying a decent company you like, and try and avoid anything that might be a meme stock. Im pretty sure memestocks are gonna blow up soon and you don't want to be there when they do. I can't recommend any companies because option pricing changes over time so you will have to find them yourself.

5:54 - 6:18 Shorting straddles is less about 'where' the stock goes but more about 'how much' the stock goes - looking for an IV crush. The wheel you would only do with stocks you want to hold long term because you'll eventually get assigned. The wheel takes advantage of theta whereas straddles (Short or long) take advantage of Vega (IV)
@@elismith4040 You make a good point. So would the largest difference between the wheel be the sizing positions and how you manage the closing of the straddle? I find that there are alot of times when doing the wheel where I find myself selling a straddle position, (Mostly because I employ the wheel on high IV stocks). Thanks to your reply I understand that the intention of the plays are different but I currently fail to see the mechanics behind the difference. Thanks alot for your insight btw, I believe it's the correct answer.
@@BlackmailMaterial @BlackmailMaterial The mechanics of a straddle involves two legs - selling a call and selling a put, both at the same strike and same expiration. The wheel employs two different strategies - 1) selling naked puts. This involves selling a put and holding collateral to cover the put. So there's only one option leg as opposed to two when using a straddle.) If not assigned, you collect your premium and sell another put. (Or you could roll) 2) eventually you get assigned, and now you sell calls against your 100 shares. 3) eventually your 100 shares get called away 1) When your shares get called away, start selling puts again. So a straddle involves two option legs, the wheel uses the collateral of 100 shares of stock and then only one leg at a time. So if you're selling straddles on stock you already own, you're mixing a covered call and a cash secured put at the same time. It just means you would need twice the collateral than if you only did one.
