I love covered calls, but I would never trade a short put. They are too risky".

The ironic thing is, a covered call is a synthetic short put.

By pricing options around IPOs, it allows you to go in and try to price it your self, and if the market puts it off at a lower price than what you had thought its worth, you can then make money off trading them📈

By taking an average of the volatilities of related companies, you can estimate the company's volatility.

This creates a massive trade for you just because you looked at the situation and were one of the first ones to price it💰
