OIC 2024 Educational Series: Premium Income and Hedging With Options

For the third quarter of 2024, The Options Industry Council (OIC) is offering investors six all-new webinars, focusing on two key themes: strategies designed to potentially generate premium income and those created for hedging purposes. 

Every OIC webinar during the quarter will be presented live. Plus, each session will be led by instructors with real-world options experience, enabling them to both present the materials and respond to questions from attendees in real time. In addition, all webinars will include information on the benefits as well as the risks of investing with exchange-listed options. 

Two separate sessions are planned for each month of the quarter: 
  • In July, premium income will be the topic, with an overview of credit vertical spreads to start the month, followed by a presentation on iron condors and iron butterflies. 
  • For August, premium income for neutral outlooks will be central, with the first webinar of the month covering short straddles and short strangles, while the second discussion will be on covered combinations and covered ratio spreads. 
  • Finally, September will feature two hedging topics, beginning with protective puts and closing with collars. 
All OIC webinars are free to attend and require registration online. Plus, by signing up for any event, attendees will gain access to the entire OIC educational library, where all prior webinars can be reviewed on demand.
