Current/Former Pro Retail Options Wiz Retail Options Dabbler Looking to Get Started Listener questions and comments: Comment from CNelsen - Puts, calls. Calls, puts. Does it really matter? Question from Ling - I've heard some educators say that you should never hold out for the max profit in an options spread trade because that means you held onto it too long. Is this the case? Do you agree? Thx. Question from GunPowderJim - How do you calculate profit/loss on a ratio spread? If I buy 1 call and then sell 2 more do I average across the 3 contracts to determine the P/L on the spread?
