Schaeffer's Senior V.P. of Research Todd Salamone just joined Ed Modla from the Options Clearing Corporation (OCC) on the Wide World of Options podcast. The main point of discussion was buying long call options, and the differences between buying options versus selling options.

In their more than 40-minute talk, Todd breaks down a number of different topics that could be helpful for traders, including the data we look at here at Schaeffer's when considering a trade, time decay in options trading, how we use sentiment, and the leverage that comes with buying options -- along with plenty more.
