Understand better options and how they can help you increase your returns
I had read this book in the 1980’s or 1990’s. At present this edition is more complete and answers many question we may have on how options can increase your returns on money invested. I must read if you are serious about options.

guide to options trading
A great guide for options trading.

Kind of a Bible for options.
This is a reference book of over 1000 pages. Not a sit down and enjoy a good novel. I found I would skip through the pages and then focus on a part that caught me eye. A beginner would realize there is a lot more in the book than just what is a PUT or Call. If you want to learn about options then you should have a copy of this in your library.

オプション取引のバイブルとして1冊は持っておきたい本。オプション取引の中級レベルから上級者レベルが対象。「現物オプション」だけでなく「先物オプション」まで網羅されている。「先物オプション」について書かれた書籍は稀有なので重宝すべき。オプション取引では、その構造から「買い」よりも「売り」に優位性があると様々な書籍で書かれているが、その常識が覆される内容が満載。様々なオプション戦略の具体例が示されていて、各ポジションのメリット＆ディメリットが理解できる。また、相場変動によるポジション調整のフォローアップまで詳細に解説されている。

I haven’t read it all yet (it is about 1000 pages), but from what I have read, it is an excellent book which explains all subjects in great detail and with very high clarity. Options trading is not an easy subject, but this book makes it possible to get a good understanding of it (needs effort though, it is not bedtime reading). Strongly recommend it.

This is the ultimate book on options and well worth the cost and effort to read it. Few people will ever want to read the entire book. Read the sections that match your option interest and investment strategy. An option position can be a safe and secure part of your investment portfolio management, adding income, protecting gains and avoiding heavy losses. At the same time an option position can be very risky with the possibility for unlimited losses. There’s lots of hype floating around on making big money trading options. Beware the hype. This is not that book.This book has all the basics, read those sections. Go back and read them again. Explore the more complicated strategies more slowly. If you want to dig into real detail and the mathematics, it’s there if you want it. This book would be the obvious choice for a two semester sequence as part of an undergraduate or graduate fiance program. At the same time if the extent of your interest is limited to buying puts and calls, generating income through covered calls and maybe buying stocks at lower prices through short puts, this book should still be in your library. If you have enough money to feel comfortable with the more risky aspects of options (100% losses sometimes) you certainly can afford to buy this book.In spite of the detail provided, each chapter is well written and not difficult to digest. It’s the totality of the subject and the wide variety of trading strategies, some of which are complex and should be undertaken only by those with discipline and self confidence.I found this book a perfect companion to pursuing options trading through a free, on-line program offered by the Chicago Board of Options Exchange (CBOE). This is a program of on-line self training, with a certification test for each training module and a series of comprehensive tests for the basic, intermediate and advanced certification level I have completed most of the modules and concluded that many of the more complex strategies should be left to the real experts. Again, like this book, go with what you are comfortable with.

Es un libro no apto para principiantes. No tiene visión de inversión a corto plazo. No es para vendedores de weekly’s. Explica cada estrategia y las follow up actions e ideas de selección de posiciones. Creo que merece la pena.
