Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the difference between premium and intrinsic value?
Premium is what you pay. Intrinsic value is how much it’s in-the-money now.

Calls for bullish outlook, puts for bearish. Always understand your max loss first.
How do I minimize options losses?
Risk only 1-2% per trade, know your breakeven, use stop losses, don’t hold to expiration blindly.
