CBOE OI Series on Box Spreads* 2 Industry Events
·OnlineOnline*Industry Event* Please note that I will occasionally post industry events on our meetup page if/when topics related to subjects that come up on our monthly zoom meetups. Please note that I can't provide technical support to these external events, however, I am always happy to share invites that come my way that may help the SF/EBOT Network raise & increase our education and understanding of Option Trading topics.
(I disclose this because people have given our group low marks when they had a technical issue with an external party. To be fair, if other members of our community login, but you can't, it may be an user-error. Please take it up with the industry provider)
From JM: For this Meetup post, please find the following 2 CBOE events that they sponsor through their Options Institute classes*:
