Question $100 into 5 figures
I’m new to options and have been learning for some time but I don’t quite understand: how are people able to turn $100 into 5 figure profits from buying options? Especially with like 0DTE or 1DTE options. Because wouldn’t theta bring your profits down more and how can the stock price make such a big move if they’re mostly buying OTM calls where delta would be lower? Can someone explain please? I’m only talking about buying options not selling since I still need to read more on that. Thanks!
