What you'll learn

• Use time itself as the edge, with calendar spreads.
• And own stock-like exposure for a fraction of the cost with LEAPS.

Lessons

1. Straddles & strangles: trading the move (2 min) — Profit from a big move in either direction — and know exactly how big it has to be.
2. Iron condors: getting paid for calm (2 min) — Two credit spreads, one range. Build it, price it, pick the strikes and manage it when one side gets tested.
3. Calendar spreads: trading time (2 min) — Sell the fast-decaying near month, own the slower back month. Learn the tent-shaped payoff and how volatility affects it.
4. LEAPS & the poor man's covered call (2 min) — Stock-like exposure for a fraction of the cost, plus monthly income on top. Built with real numbers and the one rule that matters.
