118: Applying First Principles to Options Trading

Erik Smolinski is back on the show to talk about applying the concept of First Principles to options trading. Erik is behind the esInvests YouTube channel where he puts out regular content around trading. I had so much fun in the conversation talking about out approaches to options trading these days, how we have evolved over time, backtesting, psychology, and so much more.
