In this opening session of the MoneyShow “All-Stars of Options” program, OIC instructors Mark Benzaquen and Mat Cashman profile the free OIC educational resources available to investors, including online courses, podcasts and webinars, and a variety of online tools. And to create a foundation for a day of options education, Mark and Mat will lay the groundwork of options fundamentals including the basics of calls and puts, an overview of options pricing, and a bird’s eye view of the exercise and assignment process.

This might be why some investors turn to credit spreads to potentially limit the embedded risk of a short options position. Join OIC instructors Mark Benzaquen and Mat Cashman as they discuss and dissect credit spreads as well as the Iron Condor and Iron Butterfly in this lively and engaging session geared towards the options seller.
