Better fields in contracts or options watchlist

[jespa]

Hello.

I would like to see which fields or columns are essential to add to a contract or option watchlist table.

I clarify that together with my partner we are newbies in trading and we are venturing into this work. We want to operate scalping or intraday. We are working with options or stock contracts

Waiting for your reply. Thanks.

VIP opened an Options channel on Discord. It is good to follow their trades on there

I have little experience.

Most focus on Delta, Theta, volume, open interest, and the bid/ask spread. If your new to options stick with a very small watchlist with high liquidity (SPY TSLA AAPL MSFT etc.) which will have high options trading volume therefore a tight bid ask spread (which is good)

If you dont understand the greeks go to OIC (Options Industry Council) website for free lessons about anything option related.

I would say open a chart for SPY and Add the nearest friday expiration ATM call to a chart and ATM put to a chart... then watch how one effects the other. (if you want to swing trade make it 2-4 weeks from expiration and watch those) or buy one contract at a time until you figure it out.
