Trading Options According to Seasonal Market and Stock Cycles | Getting Started with Options
Getting Started with Options | Cameron May | 9-16-25 Characteristics and Risks of Standardized Options. https://bit.ly/2v9tH6D In this video, Schwab Education Senior Manager Cameron May will explore how seasonal tendencies in the markets and individual stocks might create opportunities for options traders. Using thinkorswim’s Seasonality tool, Cameron will walk through how a trader might analyze historical performance patterns in price behavior and highlight key periods when certain stocks or even markets have historically shown strength or weakness. These insights might help traders build context around timing strategies and planning potential setups. To make this learning more practical, Cameron will take things a step further by reviewing an example trade scenario right on the thinkorswim desktop platform. You’ll see how a trader might apply the Seasonality tool directly to a chart, use that data to frame an options idea, and then go through the process of planning and placing a trade. Whether you’re new to options or looking to sharpen your seasonal trading approach, this walkthrough may provide new ways to incorporate thinkorswim’s unique features into a trader’s preferred market strategy. Each of these weekly webcasts is carefully structured to help new option traders along the leverage learning curve. Your education coach will introduce you to options terminology, clarify the common opportunities and risks, and explain the associated rights and obligations to help you become more confident with your understanding of options trading. Options carry a high level of risk and are not suitable for all investors. Certain requirements must be met to trade options through Schwab. Please read the Options Disclosure Document titled "Characteristics and Risks of Standardized Options" before considering any option transaction. To follow Cameron on X: @CameronMayCS New to Options?
