Futures Options Feedback: Listener questions and comments

• Question from LL43: Is buying straddles a more effective strategy in #futuresoptions due to the different nature of decay or is it still necessary to scalp aggressively to survive?
• Comment from Hawkeye: The Business Show should use as its motto, "The Business Show: It is an audio train wreck!" You cannot stop listening no matter how much you know you should not. While I am at it, I really like Nick and the new revitalized futures shows. Even though I do not trade futures options, I still use the concepts to trade some of the ETFs/ETNs.
• Question from JGrange: Are there dedicated futures volatility products or ways to trade commodity volatility directly?

Topics this week include:

• WTI Skew
• Crude vol
• Eurodollars
• Lean Hogs

Futures Options Feedback: Listener questions and comments

• Question from Tom Rios - How has Mexico threatening to buy corn from Brazil and Argentina, rather than the US, impacted corn volatility?
• Question from McTinney - Hello to the TWIFO team and guest! Can you give a little more color on the longer term calls you outlined in gold options last show? Is this the beginning of a trend or just a blip on the radar? Any similar action in silver? Thanks for the show.
• Comment from Jim Church - I like the rent concept. Was that Nick or Mark's idea? I think it should be a regular segment. Maybe "Who's paying the rent this week?"

We have a very special guest this week, Dan Passarelli, the Founder of Market Taker Mentoring.

Topics this week include:

• Brent/WTI Spread
• Vol Skew
• Gold

Listener questions:

• Question from 65Chevy - This is for TWIFO. Great show. Quick question - Are covered calls as popular in futures options as they are in equity options? Do they have the same performance characteristics?
• Question from George - Like the OI heat maps. Your stuff is slowly bringing me over to the dark side. I'm looking at brokers now but I'm not clear on FO margin. Is it the same span or portfolio margin like regular options or something different? And when are you going to hit on hogs again?
• Question from Vegan - During the election we saw the post-election markets crash during the event and then shoot up the next day. When rare events happen odds are the market will have a hard time going down again in the near future. How can you trade options with that in mind?

Topics this week include:
