tastylive is a live financial network for active derivatives traders, founded in 2011 by Tom Sosnoff (creator of thinkorswim) and co-host Tony Battista. Built to make options and futures content accessible to retail investors, it has grown into the largest digital network of its kind, with ~480K YouTube subscribers and a roster of 20+ on-air traders. It is part of the IG Group family, alongside the tastytrade brokerage.

The network streams 10+ hours of live programming every trading day (and now weekends), built around real-time market talk, options and futures strategy, and macro analysis. Across 100+ original segments, hosts walk through live trades and decisions using a probability-based, volatility-driven framework — implied volatility, risk-defined positions, and risk/reward — in a fast, high-energy, conversational style.

When markets are closed, tastylive offers a deep on-demand library: options tutorials, strategy breakdowns, research-driven explainers, documentaries, and trader/entrepreneur interviews. The programming is free; the commercial engine is the sister brokerage tastytrade. tastylive also runs free newsletters and hosts in-person live trading events.
