Why take this course?

Index trading and ETF trading offer less volatility, instant diversification and involves taking a macro approach rather than a micro approach. This makes it ideal for working professionals. The impact of earnings reports, company specific bad news like oil spills etc. can have severe impact on stocks. ETFs offer a world of choice for investors today, and there is an ETF for every possible investment interest. Broad market indices and their ETFs or even sector based ETFs offer tremendous liquidity and reduced volatility. Using a broad market index like the SPY ETF, you can hedge an entire portfolio of stocks from catastrophic losses with just 1 trade.

Although this course uses Options, the course is well suited for Stock traders. You can apply the concepts to ETFs because ETFs trade just like a Stock.

Content not as good as the other courses done by him. I would've expected him entering into trades and manage them as he's done it for other courses. If you can skip this course.

Straight forward if you are familiar with options trading. A good review and reminder why ETFs are a good choice for your trading. I will be using the information I learned. He is very clear in his explanations and it is obvious that he is a trader and knowledgeable about his craft. I have and will continue to take his other courses. Erbium

Some of the points in "What you’ll learn" is NOT taught: - Create low risk High Reward strategies No strategy was taught in this course itself, though instructor gave a good introduction to the broad ETF views and market. -What is Beta Weighting a stock portfolio Not taught in this course -Portfolio hedging using a broad market Index ETF like the SPY Hedging is not taught or even mentioned in this course However, on the fair side, the instructor did taught the following: - How to take maximum advantage of ETFs and Index Options - The advantage of diversification with Index and ETF products - Create exciting Portfolios that don't require constant monitoring Instructor really need to create lectures to cover the missed out points stated above.

Excellent course on ETF and Index trading. I did not really know the difference between the two until after watching these videos. Great information!

This course is what I would call false advertising. This course is not for intermediate option traders. This course is more like intro, beginner class to what the stock market is, and it uses cutoff, years old, videos at that. There is zero techniques on how to approach applying options to the very standard well known indexes :-(
