- In this post, Conditional Orders explained in
simple terms can be a great tool for Options
traders. In fact, Id go a bit further and say
that every Options trader must master them.
Especially if you cant monitor your position,
and are concerned about a move that may hurt the
position. - Conditional orders get triggered when a certain
condition is satisfied. Examples are -1) If the
SPX goes above 1700, then execute the order or 2)
If the SPX price is above 1700 and the RUT price
is above 1000, then execute the order. You can
string several conditions together, but keeping
it simple is always a good idea.

- Another issue when you place Conditional orders
explained in the video below is that when your
condition is executed, its not possible to know
the exact value of the Option at the time the
condition was satisfied. Fortunately, you can
place the order as the Mark price of the option
or a certain offset. This aspect is also
covered in the video below. - As you can see, we can put several conditions to
the order. The biggest advantage is that you can
set your conditional orders, and not have to
monitor the markets all the time to see if you
need to adjust your position. Now some of the
capabilities of Conditional orders explained in
this video is dependent upon each individual
platform, and as usual Thinkorswim has some of
the best features.
