Good start on Options

This book is what I was looking for. I wanted to get a no-pressure education on the options trading processes. This book does the job in a user-friendly easy to understand style. Does it better than some other stuff I've tried. I recommend it.

Duarte has a firm grasp on this concept and ably communicates to his reader. Particularly helpful...
