Industry Conversations: OIC Instructor Mat Cashman x TradeStation

OIC Instructor Mat Cashman attended an exclusive educational event hosted by TradeStation at their Plantation, Florida office.
 

Mat delivered a live educational session titled Options in Elevated Volatility Regimes, followed by an extended question and answer period with attendees. In this presentation, Cashman explored how elevated implied volatility environments affect options pricing, strategy selection, and risk management. 
 

Cashman then examined how key option Greeks behave differently as implied volatility levels change, and discussed how those shifts can affect strategy attractiveness for both buyers and sellers of options. The session concluded with a discussion of tail risk in elevated volatility environments, including historical examples of extreme market events and how investors may consider using options to hedge against low-probability, high-impact outcomes.
