TVS 024 – Trading Options with Kirk Du Plessis (Part II)


Listen Later

Happy early Halloween! Part II of the Trading Options episode with Kirk Du Plessis. This episode covers a lot of great information on questions that I had for trading options and Kirk’s entrepreneurial spirit for starting his own company, Optionalpha.com, after working on wall street. Please enjoy!

* What happens if you forget about your options, and they expire in the money?

* Do you have to have enough money in your account to buy all the options?
* What happens during a “margin call”


* What were the steps and mindset for starting Optionalpha?

*   What were some of the challenges that you faced while starting Optionalpha
* Playing to your strengths and researching your customers


* What if you are a millennial and don’t have necessarily the amount of time or capital, how do you suggest they trade options?

*  Why more money doesn’t necessarily make you a better trader
*  Are you more busy than someone who builds 150 homes a year?


* Being consistent and persistent
