Options (education only)
No strikes or expiries — a framework for how traders might express the view. Options can expire worthless.
Direction: volatile · Style: Debit spread (defined risk) · Level: intermediate
Options can be very risky around big events because prices jump around before the news and drop sharply right after. Beginners should generally skip options for this event.
Income / OppHub America angle
Not a trade tip — ways to use the insight outside the market.
