Tom Sosnoff: Source-Scoped Study Note
A network identity is not the selected instructor. An editorial study assignment with explicit source limits, not a hidden rulebook.
What the source can support
The named public Beginner Options course identifies Mike Butler as its instructor. A connection with the wider tastylive network does not mean every selected course is personally taught by Sosnoff.
Original exercise for this learning question
Record the actual named instructor and syllabus for your chosen course. Explain a contract concept using a fictional case and retain the quiz or exercise boundary. Keep a network biography separate from the programme's assessment and current access.
Work without a live account. Record the original reference, the observation boundary and the first answer before examining a later result. When a definition is unclear, mark the uncertainty; do not supply a favourable fact from hindsight or attribute your own invented parameter to the author.
The distinction to explain
A brand, host or founder association does not establish private instruction or a measured learning effect.
Artifact and transfer review
Selected course, actual instructor attribution and independently explained contract task.
Retain the baseline and correction as separate artifacts. For a fresh task, explain what was supplied, what you assumed and what remains unobserved. This review concerns your understanding of an evidence boundary, not the original trader's current performance or a reproduction of a private system.
Source Identity
Original operator, author or publisher reference
The scope above identifies whether the reference is an authored resource, provider interpretation, institutional description or catalogue identity. It does not imply paid access, a new account audit or a complete modern method.

Learning Concepts and Fresh Cases
A network association and the instructor of a named lesson are different identities. The selected Beginner Options course identifies Mike Butler; the wider tastylive connection does not make every course a personal Sosnoff class.
For an invented option, record the contract and the distinction between expiry payoff, changing quote and actual execution. Explain a probability-related phrase only after identifying its assumptions. A convenient label cannot guarantee that a particular account will obtain the described result.
Retain volatility, theta, mechanical management and portfolio-probability vocabulary as source questions. Any numerical parameter in the earlier vocabulary is an unverified reading lead, not a current universal instruction. Keep selected lesson, actual instructor and missing implementation alongside the learner's fresh explanation.
Retained Vocabulary Reading Trail
Variance risk premium, implied vs realised volatility, theta decay, 45 DTE / 16-delta framework, mechanical management rules, portfolio-level probability.
This vocabulary preserves the earlier topic coverage. It is a list of research leads, not a verified private rulebook. Any numerical setting or author-specific parameter needs its original definition and scope before being used or attributed.
