Must read for Trading Options

The book arrived in excellent condition and matched the details as put up on the listing. Gives a detailed understanding of what Options are and how to use them to maximize your gains and protect your investments.

I'm not fond of options....but this is a great book!

Mr.Caplan has put a great spin on option investing. If 90% of options expire worthless why buy them, just sell them. This is where this book shines. I have been involved with futures for 11 years. I have been a broker an investor ...In each instance I have avoided options on futures. With Mr.Caplan's assessment on how volatitlity plays a key role to determining what options to sell and what price to sell them at. I was impressed at how he was able to take a complicated subject and make it easy to read. His inclusion of articles from various other option traders was great as well.

Worth a Read

Though dated and focused on Futures, I found this book to be very helpful. The last 3rd of this book is a collection of articles written by other authors on the subject. Very useful!Why not 5 stars? It is focused on Futures instead of Options in general.This is only mildly annoying as most of the information is relevant to Options.Again, very helpful book.
