Good stuff again.

Ferg I sent a new email just now (about 19.00 CEST). I hope we have better luck connecting on that one.

Very strange! Neither of those two emails found their way into my inbox or spam folders. I have no idea why. Other mails get thru.

Anyway, let's try twitter then. I'll send a short message there. Look for @magic...

Unrelated to options (though all the resources listed are great - I'd also recommend the book at the end as a helpful reference guide!) - is anyone else unable to see the Twitter Circle posts?

Hey Ferg, can't thank you enough for this terrific post. Being using it as a guide to propel my understanding of options trading and feels amazing having a new arrow in my quiver (an arrow that I actually wanted to have since long time but didn't know very well where to start). Thanks again! Question: Do you have a kind of a similar set of advice, material, courses ... but on fixed income investing? Would like to strengthen my knowledge on this flank and I wonder if you or anyone in the community have done it before and so I can approach it more efficiently. Thanks a lot in advance & best, Ezequiel

Hi Ferg, watched your crux videos re. options & bull call spreads. You look at Denison - I took a look myself for interest/education - don't these trades (£0.10 premium) get blown to pieces by commisions? For on IBKR, 20 contracts at $0.10 premium cost more in commissions than premium which wrecks your potential returns. Do you have access to lower priced trades via IBKR for the Amex listings? Cheers.

Thanks. Yes I read Jordan's substacks, and checked out Options Alpha. 👍🏼

Useful resources as always. I've never done any options of any kind - nor have I ever shorted a stock. I don't know how to do any of these things.

The link to your buddy in Argentina - nice. Certainly provides motivation as I'm 'landing the plane' when it comes to working at my public sector teaching job. Thanks Ferg.
