## 2. OPTIONS TRADING RISKS
⚠️ FINANCIAL RISK WARNING
OPTIONS TRADING INVOLVES SUBSTANTIAL RISK OF LOSS AND IS NOT SUITABLE FOR ALL INVESTORS.
1. Risk of Total Loss
• You can lose your ENTIRE investment
• Options can expire completely worthless
• Losses can exceed your initial investment in certain strategies
• There is NO guarantee of profit
2. Market Volatility
• Options prices are highly sensitive to market movements
• Rapid price changes can result in significant losses
• Market conditions can change without warning
• External events (news, earnings, economic data) can cause extreme volatility
3. Complexity
• Options are complex financial instruments
• Understanding Greeks (Delta, Gamma, Theta, Vega) is essential
• Different strategies have different risk profiles
• Misunderstanding options mechanics can lead to unintended losses
4. Time Decay (Theta)
• Options lose value as they approach expiration
• This decay accelerates in the final weeks before expiration
• Even if your market prediction is correct, you can lose money due to time decay
5. Liquidity Risk
• Not all options have sufficient trading volume
• Wide bid-ask spreads can result in poor execution prices
• Difficulty exiting positions during volatile markets
• Some options may be impossible to sell at fair prices
6. Assignment Risk
• Short options positions can be assigned at any time
• Early assignment can result in unexpected obligations
• You may be required to buy or sell stock at unfavorable prices
• Assignment can occur even if you have sufficient margin
7. Broker and Execution Risks
• Order execution is handled by your broker (IBKR today; other broker integrations may be added later)
• We have NO control over order fills, pricing, or execution quality
• Market orders can be filled at prices far from current quotes
• System outages or failures may prevent order execution
• Broker APIs may experience downtime or errors
IMPORTANT DISCLAIMERS:
