Podcast Excerpt:

“Two key points that investors need to keep in mind as they begin to implement options strategies include… establishing [their] objectives… [and] discipline. In other words, any client that is going to incorporate [an option strategy] needs to have a very well thought out, highly disciplined risk and capital management system,” explains Joe Cusick, Vice President of Education for optionsXpress.

Additional options strategies will be explored in upcoming segments. Each segment is designed to build on the knowledge presented in previous interviews, creating a valuable educational investor resource for those interested in options trading.
