Special guest Al Losada is on the show today talking SPX options trading. The episode went over an hour so I decided to split into two separate episodes. 

In this first episode, Al and I discuss how we both ended up trading SPX options. One commonality we shared was a book we both read that helped get us into SPX credit spreads called Profiting with Iron Condor Options by Michael Hanania Benklifa.

This book had a big influence on our trading and its a great read for those interested in trading index option spreads.

In the coming Part 2 episode, we'll be discussing an SPX credit spread strategy with weekly options that expire the same day. This is referred to as Zero DTE spreads. 

Thanks for listening and stayed tuned for Part 2 of trading SPX options with Al Losada.
