Neither Vancouver Disciplined Trading Hub (VDTH), Round Table Educators (RTE) or
Prosperis Passive Income Strategies (PPIS) nor any of its personnel are registered
broker-dealers or investment advisors.
We may mention that we consider certain securities or positions to be good candidates
for the types of strategies we are discussing or illustrating. This does not mean that we
are telling you to trade these exact strategies or securities.
Keep in mind that we are not providing you with any specific recommendations or
personalized advice about your own trading activities. The information we are providing
is not tailored to any particular individual. Any mention of a particular security is not a
recommendation to buy, sell, or hold that or any other security, or a suggestion that it is
suitable for any specific person. Trading ALWAYS involves a risk of loss, even if we are
discussing strategies that are intended to limit risk.
VDTH, RTE and PPIS are not subject to trading restrictions. We could have a position in a
security or initiate a position in a security we mention at any time.

5. What is Disciplined Trading?
Place a trade based on:
1) CONVICTION (based on what is PERCEIVED as happening in any given moment.)
2) A CATALYST (A fundamental or technical reason/opinion)
3) COMPLACENCY (Eg. Wait for a bull market to return, convert to an investing position)
But a Disciplined Trader will âŚ
1) Predefine their risk before taking a trade
2) Cut their losses without hesitation (when catalyst fails)
3) Use a systematic money management plan to make
consistent profits.
What Most Traders DoâŚ
6. What are Equity Options?
An option is a contract that to buy or sell
a certain amount of stock.
allows you
BUYING AN OPTION GIVES THE OWNER A RIGHT
SELLING AN OPTION GIVES THE SELLER AN OBLIGATION
RIGHT or OBLIGATION
7. Why trade Equity Options?
Leverage.
An option contract controls 100 shares of the underlying stock
but costs a lot less!
Bullish Stock Trader
Apple Inc. (AAPL) costs $100.00/share
100 shares would cost = $10,000.
Apple Inc. share goes to $105.00/share
Stock Trader makes $500 or 5% profit.
Bullish Options Trader
Apple Inc. (AAPL) costs $100.00/share
1 contract costs $5.00, so trader pays $500.
Apple Inc. share goes to $105.00/share
The Option contract goes to $6.80.
Options Trader makes $180 or 36% profit.

16. Determining Expectancy
Steps for calculation expectancy:
1. Calculate your win and loss ratio
2. Calculate your reward to risk ratio
3. Combine those two ratios into an expectancy ratio
SPX Trade Expectancy
1. Win and loss ratio:
41 trades. 41 wins. Win ratio = 100%, Loss ratio = 0%
2. Reward to risk ratio:
Winner size (Avg) = $361. Loser size (Avg) = N/A. Risk-Reward Ratio = â
3. Expectancy ratio:
(Reward to Risk ratio x Win ratio) â Loss ratio = (â x 100% ) - 0% = + â
