Hi Roger, Thanks for the feedback we'll make sure they have them moving forward. Are you referring to the voice over, or text at the end of some other videos. I felt they were a bit superfluous so I'm curious how you use the summary?

Hi Max, thank you for the reply; I meant that the test at the end.

Good point! I never looked at Options liquidity to evaluate liquidity of the underlying. Makes sense what you say. Question: is this point your experience (which itself can be very valuable) or did you do a statistical analysis. Would appreciate some details if you have.

Aymman, personal experience is the short answer. Firstly with one exception, which I'll comment on later, I rarely buy or short stocks outright because trading any underlying (UL) directly is an inefficient way to deploy capital, even if using Margin accounts with 2:1 leverage for Stocks. Irrespective of long, short or neutral bias on a stock I nearly always want to be able to establish positions in whatever the Market Conditions might be using Options for their capital efficiency….. but only if the Options are liquid. Ever since going back more than 9 years ago when I first decided to stop paying fees to others, and starting managing my investments and trading myself I have kept records, firstly using self-made spreadsheets, or freebies found on the internet, then I moved onto https://trading-journal-spreadsheet.com/ but manual entry was all so time consuming. Even using the aforementioned spreadsheet approach I would tag each record with a liquidity rating, ( and a variety of other metrics) which would provide the ability to review historical trades based on entry metrics of choice e.g. Liquidity. When, much later on, I decided to immerse myself in the World of Options, quickly I became persuaded of how results over time are much more mathematically reliable and rigorous using the law of big numbers principle e.g. today I trade many thousands of 'small' Options positions each year and the most efficient way I've found to record such large numbers of 'occurrences' is https://wingmantracker.com/ My own records tell me over the long term that my success rate in instruments with poor liquidity is under 50% and overall I'm down money in those collective positions. Ref my earlier point, the exception to the rule of not buying Stocks outright. Option Markets are only open during the UL's regular market hours and if I have an open Option position and the UL Stock is moving in Pre-Market hours in a big way in the wrong direction for my Option trade I will often buy or short the Stock itself in the pre-market to hedge the position until the market opens.

Great interview with Jeff Myers. Need more of this where you actually get greats equity tips.
