Advanced Options Trading provides a solid foundation on the options market, along with the necessary skills for trading and managing risk in today’s constantly expanding and contracting market. As an active trader in today’s market, you are faced with unprecedented challenges. Dramatic price swings in equity, debt, and currency have made it tougher than ever to manage and trade risk. But with great risk, of course, comes great opportunity― and Advanced Options Trading delivers a detailed system for successfully trading options in a highly volatile and unpredictable global market.
Author’s Introduction:
In creating Advanced Option Trading in Volatile Markets, I wanted to bring you advanced trading and option techniques to allow you to follow the trending masses while learning to offset the risk of significant changes in market direction. In this book we cover a great deal about volatility and the effects of volatility on market trading. Volatility ebbs and flows; it is not a fixed or necessarily predictable aspect of the market. Your job as an investor, trader, or financial professional is to learn to manage volatility using advanced strategy and trading discipline.
To be a successful investor or financial professional today, you must have a full understanding of the advanced strategies available for your portfolio as well as an understanding of how these strate-gies are utilized by other investors. I wanted to bring advanced strategy to a level that was quickly and easily understandable and to avoid a bunch of flowery language and complicated mathematics that often discourage busy people from learning advanced portfolio management. Advanced Options Trading covers:
- The critical nature of forward-looking implied volatility
- Ways to level the volatility playing field with options
- Techniques for adding value to a portfolio while managing risk
- The functions of price hedging― and how to do it effectively
- Interest rate options and which factors drive debt markets
- Options analysis techniques

I’ve been learning options trading for a while now from online resources, mentors, seminars, etc. While I’m familiar with a lot of these strategies already, I was hoping for additional insight and analysis so I thought what better way to find deeper analysis than to pickup a wordy book on the topic. It turns out this book doesn’t analyze all that deeply and is unnecessarily wordy. The author uses sentences to describe things that could be simply displayed in a table or listed as bullet points. For example, if you want to know if a strategy is bearish or bullish or neutral, you might have to read more than one page into the analysis if it bothers to tell you at all and also the formulation of the strategies like what to buy/sell is not listed out but instead described in a lengthy paragraph. To top it all off, the math is incorrect in many places and a lot of items end up backwards such as the delta on the greeks being positive rather than negative. It’s actually kinda important! Even simple math which they spell out manage to be botched such as this example: 36.00 – 32.00 = 3.00. 3.00!? Really?!
Don’t trust this book!! It’s going to confuse the heck out of you.
