Week by week

1️⃣

Options Foundations

Rights versus obligations, intrinsic versus extrinsic value — the vocabulary the rest of the desk assumes.

Week 1
2️⃣

The Greeks in Plain English

Delta, Theta, Vega and Gamma expressed as dollar impact rather than Greek letters.

Week 2
3️⃣

Implied Volatility & IV Rank

IVR ≥ 35 favours selling, IVR < 20 favours buying — matching the structure to the volatility regime.

Week 3
4️⃣

Directional Defined-Risk Verticals

The 0.15–0.25Δ window, and requiring credit ≥ 30% of width before the trade earns its place.

Week 4
5️⃣

Neutral Rangebound Income

Iron condors at 0.16Δ wings — collecting premium without a directional opinion.

Week 5
6️⃣

Trade Desk Management & Defense

Harvest at 50%, manage at 21 DTE, and never roll for a debit. The rules that decide before you have to.

Week 6

What every week carries

Every week carries the same six things: worked dollar math, a pre-filled trade receipt, three active-recall flashcards, inline glossary popovers, three common mistakes, and a bridge to the next week.

And every trade receipt has the same six fields: the underlying and why, the strategy and why THIS strategy, strike rationale with delta, expiration and DTE, max risk in dollars, and the exit plan.
