Course Overview:
In SPX Call Back Ratio, Dan Sheridan introduces an advanced income strategy designed to take advantage of market fluctuations with minimal risk. This specialized approach, focusing on the SPX index, uses a Call Back Ratio setup—an imbalanced options strategy that focuses on creating a positive risk-to-reward profile while capitalizing on significant directional moves in the market.
The Call Back Ratio involves selling a greater number of short calls compared to the number of long calls in a position, typically done with the SPX to take advantage of its liquidity and efficient pricing.
