Meetup Agenda
This is a presentation prepared for Education purposes only.
Neither Vancouver Disciplined Trading Hub (VDTH) or Prosperis Passive Income
Strategies (PPIS) nor any of its personnel are registered broker-dealers or investment
advisors.
We may mention that we consider certain securities or positions to be good candidates
for the types of strategies we are discussing or illustrating. This does not mean that we
are telling you to trade these exact strategies or securities.
Keep in mind that we are not providing you with any specific recommendations or
personalized advice about your own trading activities. The information we are providing
is not tailored to any particular individual. Any mention of a particular security is not a
recommendation to buy, sell, or hold that or any other security, or a suggestion that it is
suitable for any specific person. Trading ALWAYS involves a risk of loss, even if we are
discussing strategies that are intended to limit risk.
VDTH and PPIS are not subject to trading restrictions. We could have a position in a
security or initiate a position in a security we mention at any time.

What are Equity Options?
An option is a contract that to buy or sell
a certain amount of stock.
allows you
RIGHT or OBLIGATION
BUY
SELL
When you buy, you have a RIGHT.
When you sell, you have an OBLIGATION.
What can we do with Option Contracts?
Why trade Equity Options?
Leverage = 1 to 100
1 option contract controls 100 shares
Bullish Stock Trader
Apple Inc. (AAPL) costs $100.00/share
100 shares would cost = $10,000.
Apple Inc. share goes to $105.00/share
Stock Trader makes $500 or 5% profit.
Bullish Options Trader
Apple Inc. (AAPL) costs $100.00/share
1 contract costs $5.00, so trader pays $500.
Apple Inc. share goes to $105.00/share
The Option contract goes to $6.80.
Options Trader makes $180 or 36% profit.
A Call Option is an option contract that gives the buyer (holder) the right to buy, and gives
the seller (writer) the obligation to sell a 100 shares of a stock at the given strike price on or
before the expiration date of the contract.
A Put Option is an option contract that gives the buyer (holder) the right to sell, and gives the
seller (writer) the obligation to purchase 100 shares of a stock at the given strike price on or
before the expiration date of the contract.

Determining Expectancy
Steps for calculation expectancy:
1. Calculate your win and loss ratio
2. Calculate your reward to risk ratio
3. Combine those two ratios into an expectancy ratio
SPX Trade Expectancy
1. Win and loss ratio:
Win ratio = Wins/Total Trades
Loss ratio = Losses/Total Trades
2. Reward to risk ratio:
Avg. Winner / Avg. Loser
3. Expectancy ratio:
(Reward to Risk ratio x Win ratio) – Loss ratio
SPX PRACTICE TRADE
72/85 = 84.70%
10/84 = 15.30%
$564.58/$357.69 = 157.84%
(157.84% x 84.70%) – 15.30%
= +118.41%
