When the markets get volatile, the pros get strategic. In this exclusive panel from the 2025 MoneyShow Masters Symposium Dallas, two of the industry’s most respected traders — Dr. Alan Ellman (The Blue Collar Investor) and John Carter (founder of Simpler Trading and author of Mastering the Trade) — team up to unpack real-time strategies for navigating extreme volatility using options trading. 🔥 Whether you're bullish, bearish, or sitting on the sidelines, this panel delivers practical insights you can act on. You'll learn how to trade heightened volatility using credit and debit spreads, and discover the exact framework Dr. Alan Ellman uses to consistently generate 6%–8% annualized returns with covered calls and cash-secured puts. John Carter breaks down his legendary $1.2 million Tesla trade and explains how to spot rare breakout setups. You'll also gain a fresh perspective on why sometimes sitting in cash is the smartest move — and how to stay ready to strike when opportunity comes. Plus, both experts share how they approach exit strategies and quantify risk using delta and implied volatility.
