The document is a Twitter thread about options trading strategies. It discusses how options can be used to express views on the market from both a buyer and seller perspective. For buyers, it is important to set price and time targets and exit if time decay erodes premium faster than movement. For sellers, theta decay works in their favor, and they should exit if major support/resistance is broken or adjustments are needed to protect from losses.

Time for a Thread
Curated in collaboration with
@AdityaTodmal • The lame textbook def of right but not the obligation etc is simply confusing
• This is how you can remember, by understanding
the logic of the instruments with your view on the market • In a nutshell: Options are instruments used to express your view on the market
• The view could be same but the instruments
played by the buyers and sellers could be different • For Option buyers:
• Its imp to set a price target
• and to set a time target as well
• Time is an important factor to be considered
• Movement should outweigh the time decay
• Remember option is a wasting asset
• Time decay always works against option buyers
• Time decay is the highest when the option nears
its expiry
• Stock moved up but my CE dint move up
• Buying too early in the series means paying higher
prem for an OTM option
• Remember, OTM option only has time value
• Exit conditions are very crucial
• Evaluate your position everyday whether the theta
decay is eroding your option premium faster than the movement you are waiting for
• If yes have a SL • Option selling :betting where the market wont go
• Need a broader view over a precise view
• Draw a mental probability distribution chart
• Theta decay is a friend of option sellers
• Exit conditions for option sellers
• Time to expiry is less: theta decay will bail you
out, ceteris paribus
• If its breaking a major support or resistance: exit
• Meanwhile: adjustment is the name of the game,
to protect from huge MTM swings • This was a part II Thread on derivatives
