After gaining a foundational understanding of options in the beginner course, the intermediate course explores the fundamental strategies used in digital currency options trading. Starting with the most common single-leg contracts—call and put options, we will be explaining when to use each strategy and how to calculate the profit/loss (PNL) breakeven point. Through this course, you'll gain an insight into the different types of blockchain options products available on Gate, learning basic concepts related to options pricing from a mathematical perspective, and get introduced to the key risk management metrics known as the Greeks. By the end of the first two chapters, you'll be able to place simple options trades on the Gate platform and manage your risk effectively.
This course provides an in-depth explanation of Call Options (Calls), Put Options (Puts), profit/loss (PNL) calculation, the Black-Scholes-Merton (BSM) model, and the Greeks as they are presented on the Gate platform (e.g., Delta). Additionally, it covers how implied volatility affects Delta, the impact of time decay (Theta), and the Greek's sensitivity to changes in implied volatility (Vega).
