Welcome to Options Trading with Imran Lakha

In this course, you will learn how the overall options market works, who uses options and why, how options can alter market dynamics, and how you can make options a viable part of your investment strategy.

The Greeks

Market makers form the bedrock of the options market. For each option contract that is purchased or sold, market makers take the other side of those positions. To achieve neutrality, market makers break volatility down into key components, better known as the ‘Greeks.’ The Greeks are what scare a lot of investors away from options. But, the lens of a market maker provides the perfect window to understanding the Greeks and how crucial they are to the pricing of options contracts.
