Learn - BigDipperOptions Docs

Welcome to Learn—structured education for options traders using BigDipperOptions as a research dashboard. Start with Foundations (shared by every strategy). Then pick a strategy track. The first full track available is Wheel; more strategies will be added here over time.

New here? Read the Delayed Data Disclaimer—it covers what BigDipperOptions is (and is not) and how our chart data works.

How Learn is organized

Section	Pages	Purpose
Foundations	Steps 1–4 below	Data rules, options vocabulary, platform literacy—required before any strategy
Wheel	Wheel track (5 steps)	Full curriculum: screen → execute on platform → manage lifecycle
More strategies	Coming soon	Additional income and directional tracks will live here

Foundations (start here)

Complete these before any strategy track.

Step	Page	What you’ll learn
1	You are here	How Learn is structured
2	Delayed Data Disclaimer	Platform rules, data delay, live prices at your broker
3	Options Basics	Calls, puts, premium, strikes, expiration, assignment
4	Using BigDipperOptions	Login, dashboard tour, paper trading note, guided session on chains, GEX, walls, and score (~30–45 min)

Start: Step 2 — Delayed Data Disclaimer

Wheel strategy track

After Foundations, continue with the Wheel subsection in the sidebar (or start at the series hub).

Step	Page	Focus
1	Wheel Learning Series	Overview, framing, how modules connect
2	Module 1 — The Wheel Strategy	Wheel strategy, CSP/CC videos, phases, risks (~30–45 min)
3	Selecting candidates	Ownability, liquidity, IV, sizing + cheat sheet (~60–75 min)
4	Execution	Wheel page, Pareto, score, GEX, checklist (~45–60 min)
5	Lifecycle	Decision map, playbook, journal, paper capstone (~60–75 min)

Foundations: ~1.5–2 hours · Wheel track: ~3–4 hours reading · ~8–12 hours total with exercises, Wheel page practice, and the paper capstone. Wheel page UI (screenshots): Wheel Page Guide in Documentation → How to Use the Dashboard—use with Module 3, not as a separate Learn step. Enter Wheel track: Wheel Learning Series

Core ideas (all strategies)

BigDipperOptions narrows choices for research—it does not tell you what to trade
The score combines implied volatility, open interest, gamma, and more—use it to screen on BigDipperOptions first (after Options Basics)
Prices on charts are delayed—confirm live underlying, strike, option premium, and implied volatility at your brokerage before you trade

Wheel-specific framing (ownability, premium vs risk, called-away success) is in the Wheel series.
