Educational Videos

The following is a collection of podcasts and videos from the Options Clearing Corporation and selected others.

The cover a lot of ground and new ones are occasionally added to their site.  They are not as good as the coursework from MarketTamer, who are Option Sage’s excellent group but these are free (as opposed to $99 a month with Sage’s PSW special) so take a peek at the subjects that interest you:

First up is a very good introduction to options basics from Adam Lass, a very good overview.  His next episode is the basics of call options – hopefully he’ll do more.  Then we have the podcasts from OCC:

  What’s Happening in the Market with Dan Sheridan – October 2008  

 

Also, my "friendbuddypal" Jim Cramer has a show that was dedicated to the right way and wrong way to watch his show and, althogh I generally can’t stand Jim, I will say that there are many valid points he makes here in telling people simple things like: You can’t follow every trade;  Stay diversified; Have a plan etc. that is relevant for anyone who is following someone else’s trade ideas and it’s well worth watching:
