# Learn

> Beginner-friendly options education on BigDipperOptions—shared foundations, then strategy tracks starting with the Wheel.

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.

<Note>
  **New here?** Read the [Delayed Data Disclaimer](/learn/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](/learn/wheel-complete-guide) (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](/learn/delayed-data-disclaimer) | Platform rules, data delay, live prices at your broker |

**Start:** [Step 2 — Delayed Data Disclaimer](/learn/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](/learn/wheel-complete-guide) | Overview, framing, how modules connect |
| **2** | [Module 1 — The Wheel Strategy](/learn/wheel-module-1-foundations) | Wheel strategy, CSP/CC videos, phases, risks (\~30–45 min) |
| **3** | [Selecting candidates](/learn/wheel-module-2-candidates) | Ownability, liquidity, IV, sizing + cheat sheet (\~60–75 min) |
| **4** | [Execution](/learn/wheel-module-3-execution) | Wheel page, Pareto, score, GEX, checklist (\~45–60 min) |
| **5** | [Lifecycle](/learn/wheel-module-4-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](/learn/wheel-module-4-lifecycle#capstone-first-paper-wheel-cycle).

**Wheel page UI (screenshots):** [Wheel Page Guide](/dashboard/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](/learn/wheel-complete-guide)

## 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](/learn/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](/learn/wheel-complete-guide).
