Many Tiger users have already picked up the basics of options and are eager to start practicing. But when they open the options trading page—which looks very different from stocks—they hesitate. 😕
📘 Don’t worry! After checking out these three screenshots from The Options Handbook, you’ll be able to read an options interface with ease—
▶ First Screen: The Options Chain 📝
From the detail page of a stock, ETF, or index, tap the Options Tab to see the list-style options chain.
You can also tap the icon in the top-right to switch to T-quote mode, which displays calls and puts side by side. Use whichever format feels more intuitive to you.
▶ Second Screen: The Contract Details Page 📝
By default, you're in single-leg mode. Tap any contract in the chain to open its detail page.
Here, you can check the recent price movement of the option, set an alert for specific price levels, or add the contract to your watchlist.
▶ Third Screen: The Order Page 📝
Tap into the order detailed page, where you'll choose your order type, set your price, quantity, etc.
Before you submit, tap the icon at the bottom. This lets you see how the trade would affect your account's margin requirements, a valuable habit to build even in simulation.
Want the order placed only under certain conditions? Use conditional orders. For example, you can set it to submit only if the stock reaches a set price.
🎁 Master these three screens and you’re one step closer to trading options. The Options Handbook takes you from 0 to 1—your first real options trade starts here, now in the Tiger Coin Center! 🐯
