Options Trading: Long and Short Options

By Sergey K. Aityan

Trading options is an exciting and quite lucrative way of investing in the stock market. Options offer high leverage and protect from the excessive losses. On the other hand, options expose investors to the higher level of risk, surely making options trading not suitable for early beginners. You may be confused with the two statements made above about options protecting from the excessive losses and at the same time, exposing to the higher risk. Do not judge on the spot and learn options first. Options see many different types of risk.Many books have been published about options trading and it looks like there is no need for one more book. However, books may be different, meeting specific needs of the readers. The purpose of this book is to provide the detailed fundamentals of options trading. This book discusses the nature of options, who makes options, how they are originated, traded, exercised, and assigned, what is the difference between long and short options, and what are the differences in trading strategies, goals, and the respective market conditions for using long and short options. The scope of this book is limited to single options, long and short. Which are described in a greater detail. This is the fundamental distinction of this book from many other similar books. This book is in part an exert from a broader book on the stock market entitled "Stock Market Course, Part 1: Exchanges, Stocks, and Options" but contains additional important information targeting those, who want to learn the detailed fundamentals of options before investing.More complex option opportunities come with the combination of options with stocks and options, such as covered and protective calls and puts, straddles, strangles, spreads butterflies, condors and other. A variety of such combinations including their usage, opportunities, as well as their pros and cons will be discussed in the separate book.
