A Solid Overview Of Options Trading

With a dizzying array to choose from, traders new to options are often mystified when it comes to picking a fundamental primer. Options: A Personal Seminar is easily the best of the NYIF seminar series and a solid source of information. With detailed descriptions of option strategies and concepts from the simple to the complex, it is highly understandable yet comprehensive. This book is a great place to start an options education.

Great book for Frequent Options Traders

I've purchased several books on trading options and this one is by far the superior book. It offers practical guidelines for choosing a strategy and outlines spreadsheet calculations you can set up to help you evaluate a trade. It also discusses many more topics than other books I've read, such as repair strategies. If you're going to buy one options book, this is it!

A must for survival in the stock market.

A simple, no frills explanation of options trading including calls, puts, call and put spreads, combinations, calendar spreads, repair strategies and LEAPS. A few simple techniques can increase your trading profits 20% per year or more. Sell puts against long stock positions. Hedge current investments to protect accumulated profits. Never worry about "bear markets" --- make money going up or down. This book is written in textbook fashion and should be read accordingly. No nonsense or get rich quick schemes here
