Just what it should be.......2007-10-11
Straight to and through the basics. I am a rookie option trader. This book spoke to me. I have already saved more than the price of the book, using the information in it. Some of the charts though, did not speak to me. I still don't know what a standard deviation is.
Excellent book on option trading.......2007-04-07
this book is one of the best I have read on option trading and I have read probably atleast 50. Very well written, with a great emphasis on timing and volatility.

Trade Options Online.......2007-01-16
FRom your description this sounded like a very good book since I am interested in trading options. Lo and behold I find out this book was published in 1999 and in 8 years lots of new things have been developed. You should have mentioned in your promo that this book was written 8 yrs. ago. I got ripped off. Just be honest with your descriptons. Les Lerner
Good primer but not very useful for traders.......2003-07-08
This text contains a lot of information on online trading in general and trading of options in particular. But be careful, you need to know more than that to succeed in this business. Although this book will tell you how to go about placing your orders and which option strategy is good for which situation, making money comes down to predicting the behavior of your stock price and volatility, something you will have to learn elsewhere. Incidentally the book was most likely written to increase subscriber base of the author's website, so don't let your guard down.
Time value of that book is zero.......2002-03-16
First 8 chapters give you a very superficial introduction to the options trading and some strategies. Let me repeat - very superficial. If you want to learn that matter, you definetely need another book.
So, I was trying to get usefull info on the WEB resources. Let me tell you - two years make a big difference in the Internet world. Many sites do not exist. Some of them have nothing in common with the description, which you find in a book. Chapter 9 - "cybervesting from A to Z" is a complete waste of time and is full of frustration. It guides you through interfaces of nonexisting web pages. The pages, which, according to th author, answer the crutial questions of a trade. I lost most of time just to verify nonexistence of the referenced resources.
Decent Introduction to the Options Arena.......2001-11-27
I won't pretend to be an expert option trader. I'm in my third year of seeking a bachelor's, and the degree will not be very finance or investing related. This is the first book I read about options, and it successfully heightened my interest by introducing me to some basic option strategies. Another success of the book is the advice it gives on how to initiate and monitor trades throughout the trading day.
Unfortunately, the only people with time to check these complex positions each and every minute are multi-million dollar hedge fund managers (such as the author). The rest of working class America and I can only check our investments on occasional evenings. My guess is the average reader does not have the time or the stomach to sit on pins and needles every day wondering if it's time to exit their risky positions. The only advice the author lends about early exits from trades is that if the stock looks poised to move against you then get out.
Also, the author tells us to start looking for trades based on increased media coverage, high volume, and/or price volatility. This sort of herd following mentality is what I think leads to the massive market swings which cable commentators and industry insiders pretend to understand but incorrectly predict on a daily basis. If the author could truly capture these wild swings, writing this book would not be necessary.
Even the author's own website (after buying expensive extra services) does not search through all optionable stocks to find volatility skews that would make the pie in the sky trades illustrated throughout the book possible. The "platinum" site lets you pick a stock and then see what you can do with it. The odds of randomly finding a stock where you can risk less than $75 and possibly gain over $400 with a 15 point spread of profitability (chapter 8, long condor), are close to a needle in a hay stack.
Applicable advice to average investors is something this book truly lacks. Modifying simple stock ownership with options is not discussed. All of the option strategies included contain absolutely no stock positions (long or short). Trading within IRA's was important before the maximum contributions started being increased, but now they will become more important than ever. I suspect the rankings of brokers in the book and on the author's website are based more on advertising compensation than usefulness to individual traders. The rankings refuse to recognize the lowest-commission-charging online brokerages, and left out completely is the issue of assignment and exercise fees. Assignment and exercise fees can range from 15 to 30 dollars - per contract ... emphasis on per contract. I chose my current broker (not on any ranking list) only because they do not charge those fees.
In a final derogatory note, the seventh chapter contains text that contradicts itself when explaining the ratio call spread and the call ratio backspread. I had to reread the chapter a few times to sort out where the errors are, and what those positions entail.
Again, the book did shed light on an area of investing I knew little about, and intrigued me enough to want to learn more. Yet by sporting a sexy neon cover and depicting life from the point of view of someone managing millions, this book and others like it will probably keep average people thinking of options as risky, scary, and strange. Other than giving me a basic understanding of some common ways to trade, all this book really accomplished was motivating me to write a better one.
Please Read This Review Carefully.......2001-09-29
This book is only a decent overview of options trading. Its pluses include its concise descriptions and profit/loss graphs of different option strategies and invaluable information on finding an online options broker. HOWEVER, it leaves the reader with unrealistic expectations (like all of Fontanills' and Optionetics' materials) in that ALL of the trades in the book are profitable. Take it from someone who has learned this personally -- options trading is NOT a "get rich quick" scheme. Should you choose to try it you will have MANY unsuccessful trades. A book which is very easy to understand, yet which provides valuable guidance on WHAT CAN GO WRONG is Max Ansbacher's _The New Options Market_. I sincerely recommend that book because it is able to describe the pitfalls of options trading in a manner which I've not found in other books. Good luck!

Not pragmatic. Too much talk........2007-07-28
The ratio of talk to concrete examples is 85% to 15%. I like straight to the point books, that can and should reinforce important points but keep the fluff to a minimum...
Option Trading for the Conservative Investor.......2007-07-21
Great book if you are considering doing options in your IRA or Roth. Author is very straight forward in pointing out pit falls with a number of option stradegies that could get one into trouble and on the flip side those that work that will build your portfolio over time. I also liked that the author spent some time on tax implications of Options that other authors never speak about. Author could have spent some time on how one searches for stocks that fit the conservative option stradegey, i.e. how to use filters and screeners in various web sites.
Not so conservative.......2007-06-17
Overall lots of information, but Thomsett does not fully explain the risks involved with selling covered calls. Essentially all of his model portfolio would have been in the money after selling the Leaps wtih in weeks. Rolling would not be practical as one could only roll up for the 27 month Leaps. Selling a Pepsico 27 mo. Leap at 50 with a current price (in Sept of '02) of 48.48 netted a $4.30 premium. The stock hit $50 within a month or so and was at about $63 by expiration. The only way out would be to roll up (at an ever increasing cost), hold for two years, or buy back the call. For the average investor (including myself) seems a bit complicated. If after selling a call, the price falls, the risk is even greater. One would need to close out the call by purchasing it back before selling the shares or risk having a naked call. The stradles described later in the book may reduce risk but for most trading accounts managing margin is not for the faint of heart. Definitely read this book with a large grain of salt and thourghly understand the risks associated with such options trading.
Conservative in Some Respects.......2007-05-28
Essentially a book that attempts to frame options trading in a world where your fundamental analysis of a company will drive strategy. The basic assumption of this book is that you can effectively analyze the fundamental strength of a stock and that you can execute several options strategies to increase the income generated from the stock. However, many of the strategies presented still require one to utilize technical analysis (e.g., choose strike prices based on support-levels), as well as provide little in the way of strategy modiifcation if the company's fundamentals change during the life of a call. This is a good book for developing some new investment strategies, however the reader will benefit if they have a good understanding of technical analysis as well.
Good advice but too repetitive.......2007-05-20
This is one of those books that while it has good advice and might actually be nice for someone not knowing that much about options (of which I am one) the book repeats itself over and over. The same ideas could have been presented in one fourth the number of pages. The author's other book "Getting Started in Options" covers more basics, gives better examples, is much better for beginners, and is a much much better way to spend your money.
Book Description
Originally published almost a decade ago, LeRoy Gross's authoritative, yet highly accessible book has been the only resource available for conservative investors looking to further their investment goals with options. Now, with a new Introduction by the bestselling author Larry McMillan, The Conservative Investor's Guide to Trading Options has been updated to help market practitioners of the present garner the same rewards reaped by investors of the past.
Using the clear, balanced approach he used with his clients during a long career in the securities industry, Gross explores the various options strategies most frequently employed with individual stocks, examines the risk factors associated with each, and offers a unique perspective on how to use options as a hedging tool. From buy stock/write call to sell stock/buy call, the strategies covered are designed to help investors be better able to increase stock income, reduce stock risk, and seek stock profits. In addition to recommended systems, Gross also points out those that conservative investors should avoid, including naked cal writing, calendar spread, and call option butterfly spread.
With clear, easy-to-understand explanations, here's where you'll find complete details on:
* Reading and understanding option tables.
* Entering option orders.
* Negotiating commission discounts.
* Understanding the language of options trading with a complete glossary.
Filled with practical examples and no-nonsense information, this is essential reading for all those who want to expand their portfolios using conservative option strategies.

Good Book That Covers Things Other Text Don't Mention.......2005-09-23
This is one of the better texts on conservative options strategies. It's the only book I've read that discusses the time and record keeping requirements needed to implement options strategies. This is particularly relevent to those interested in covered call writing.
Some specific recommendations in the text have been made obsolete since the emergence of online ($8 commission) trading. This has greatly increased the profit potential of shorter term positions in covered call writing. In past times, longer holding periods, and rolling of options was needed to overcome the effects of high commission prices. Now, shorter holding periods, even on in the money positions, usually yields higher profitability; contrary to the advice in the book.
This is still a very good text, and well worth reading.
Practical and Conservative Option Trading.......2005-08-05
This book does a good job of identifying the less risky types of option trades an individual investor would want to do. It goes through the various strategies with mathematical examples in a common sense approach. It does not, however, go into the theory of options which I think is necessary to use them effectively and to assure their pricing is reasonable. Larry McMillan on Options is an excellent in-depth book on option theory.
Well-Written, Crisply Edited.......2002-02-13
Before reading this, or any, options book, one should go to [website] and study the subject thoroughly. Once you know the basics, this book can be appreciated. Note: unless one has at least about $5000, someone should quite probably stick to buying calls or puts (which the author, the late Mr. Gross rightfully labels as an 'aggressive' strategy), depending on the market's and a stock's overall outlook.
This book is at its best when used by someone with more than $5000 (and preferably more like $10,000) who can use the time-tested hedging strategies effectively detailed here. Investors on a tighter budget would likely do better with Charles Caes'"Tools of the Bull" or "Tools of the Bear" (the "Bear" book can be easily adapted to using in a bull market also). Options investors should also know some technical analysis, John Murphy's "Charting Made Easy" is a good, cost-effective source.
The layout of this book is clean and makes it easy to read. Gross was a good writer, relaying his ideas clearly to the reader. Any options book will confuse a beginner, learn them first at [website].
This is a great one.......2000-09-07
Most trading books give you well chosen examples of how great their methods work. Rarely the risk and downside. This one shows you the strategies, and the risks if it all goes wrong, as well as the potential profits. It walks you through clear examples and describes over a dozen strategies in a simple manner. Some I surprisingly wasn't familiar with. For example, this is one of the few option texts that mentions and walks though calendar spreads.
If you can't understand this book, you shouldn't be trading options. It is one of only 4 option texts I have kept in my library. The only criticism I have is that this book was written before discount brokers, the commissions weren't updated in the examples. You should not be without this one. Larry McMillan wouldn't be involved if it wasn't first class.
Another good one is Trester's "The Complete Option Player".
Difficult to read........1999-10-02
The idea for this book is a good one, but the execution is not. It is hard to read and follow. Options are confusing enough anyway without confusing writing about them.

A Nice Surprise .......2007-10-08
I wasn't sure what to expect from this book but it was recommended to me by a friend so I ordered it. When I got it, my first thought was
"Wow. Short book is right." But don't let its length fool you. It is for people new to options and it's a very condensed volume of information that focuses on covered calls and touches on a few variations of them. It starts out with an overview of options and gives good easy to understand examples. It then moves into buying and selling options and finally focuses on covered call writing. It gives very good examples of various trades and the affects of yields and volatility.
You can use this book to get started on covered call writing with good confidence. I really liked this book a lot because it was very focused on teaching one very effective and conservative options strategy instead of trying to teach several confusing strategies all at once.
The Short Book on Options .......2007-05-09
The book is unquestionably the best book on writing covered calls available. The writer is efficient without bias and without the use of puffery to make a point.
Excellent.......2003-09-16
This book delivers, I did not know about options prior reading, the simple and yet comprehensive presentation allows to develop a good grasp of how to use options on a conservative and solid fashion.
What he advocates (protection and enhancement) of a portfolio is well presented and plan to use his advice.
More likely will now seek more information and knowledge with more elaborated books (not sure is really needed) but the basics are here.
thank you Wolfinger
Clear concise primer for understanding options.......2002-11-08
I found this book to be just what I was looking for. After a complete introduction to the topic, Mr. Wolfinger helps the novice options investor clearly understand one conservative strategy. The author is very dedicated and thorough in explaining the concepts. He makes no assumptions that the reader has previous knowledge of what he teaches, yet he is never condescending. I also appreciate the easy to read font size. The text is large enough that I can read it without my glasses! Many thanks to the author for having the patience and know-how to start a beginner from "square one". I look forward to other books on the subject by this author.
I am a satisfied options novice.......2002-11-08
Enjoyed this book! It delivers as promised. I picked it up hoping to get a clear understanding of options and how they work. I was more than pleased, as this book provided all I was looking for, and more. The author presents material in pleasant, easy to grasp language. I now have a very clear understanding of options. The covered call writing strategy sounds good to me. I never knew it was so easy to obtain some safety for my stocks. I have already opened my options account and my broker is offering encouragement.

marketing exercise.......2005-03-18
There are cheaper and better written books on the subject. In the last chapter, the author describes his business success, not in trading though, but in selling options software. The whole book is marketing tool for selling his product, with some option basics in between.

Product Description
In recent years, the level of legal, accounting, and regulatory complexity associated with employee stock options has only grown. This book, written by attorney Alisa Baker, a leading equity compensation expert, presents a straightforward, comprehensive overview of both the big-picture issues and the technical details related to designing and implementing stock option plans. The book also looks at "hot" issues and provides illustrative exhibits, a glossary, a bibliography, and primary source materials, plus a seminal article by Corey Rosen on plan design. The seventh edition incorporates changes made in prior updates and supplementary materials, and covers the latest developments in the equity compensation field. There are new chapters on stock-related legislation, case law, and accounting. Additionally, the book has been reorganized for easier navigation and comprehension, and material has been segmented into shorter chapters, with endnotes at the end of each chapter rather than at the end of the book.
Customer Reviews:
A good overview, targeted towards the tax professional.......2006-02-26
This was a good, concise overview of stock options, but most of the detail concerned tax treatment of various situations. Not being a tax person or accountant, I could still get some good information about my company's stock option plan but I would recommend this book only to people with a good basic understanding of accounting and tax rules.
All aspects of stock options succinctly explained.......1999-09-15
This book is an invaluable reference for any business owner or advisor contemplating the use of stock options to improve a company's performance, motivate employees and create an ownership culture. The National Center for Employee Ownership, the impetus behind this book, is a national treasure, as far as I'm concerned. Their mandate is to democratize the workplace to best reflect the demands and dynamics of the 21st Century Global Economy. This book uniquely addresses everything a company needs to consider regarding stock options: the business, financial, accounting, legal, securities and human resources/organizational development aspects. You cannot find a better resource or more accessible book in the stock options arena.
Exclusively centered on US law.......1999-07-30
The book is of very limited value for any company outside the US. All explanations are given with regard to US laws and regulations.
very educational.......1999-07-10
Excellent book. Though the title doesn't sound as hot as "Ectrepreneu's guide to equity", it covers much more and in depth with the same price. It covers all the pros and cons and tax issues for stock option and empolyee stock ownership plan and other incentive plans. The bottom line, after reading the book, you won't be any more confused about each plan. To an employee, it is very helpful in deciding if you want to stay with present employer or change to another one with a better incentive plan. To an entreprenur, this is the Bible. It will benefit your business and your staff enoumously. I wish I had bought this book first. It could have saved me time and money in shipping $ handling fees and returing back to Amazon the "Entrepreneu's Guide to Equity"
A valuable and authoritative book about stock options........1999-06-22
The Stock Option Book is a valuable source of authoritative current knowledge and thinking about stock options for readers whose background may be business, professional, academia, or government. To be effective, a book of this nature should offer a broad perspective. The experiences of a broad range of experts is more important than that of a single expert. Editor Scott Rodrick of the National Center for Employee Ownership has chosen some of the best known stock option experts to contribute to this book. All have been actively involved in the evolution of employee stock option plans. Each chapter in the book stands alone and is complete in itself. While this produces some overlap in certain of the chapters, it eliminates the need for the reader to refer to other chapters, and it provides valuable reinforcement of important concepts. This book is another excellent publication about employee ownership and participation published by the National Center for Employee Ownership.

A trading book without sugarcoat.......2007-10-24
I wish I'd read this book along with other book of Elder, 'Come into my trading room, when I first started out in trading business. This book thoroughly explains the cold harsh reality of the nuts and bolts of trading business. I highly recommend this book to anyone contemplating venturing into trading business.
Excellent Place to Begin Your Trading, Covers it all........2007-05-24
Dr. Elder has put together in Trading for a living, the most comprehensive 'soup to nuts' book I have read on the broad subject of trading. Ok, even Dr. Elder would tell you that to trade after having read ONLY his book would be the act of a fool, I can tell you now that I have read dozens of books, that there is certainly NO BETTER book to get a broad understanding of trading. Dr. Elder focuses on the three aspects of trading that a trader must master: Your Psychology, Your Money-Management, and then the Analytics. His psychology stuff is very good, a bit harsh, kind of like an old Russian dude might sound like in real life, but sound. And certainly less harsh than a big hit to your capital position on a loss in the markets. His money management section is powerful, which was perhaps the most concise and helpful that I have read on the subject. The money management section gave you a solid foundation for knowing what 'money management' is, and how it should be understood in the world of trading. And lastly, the analytics. Wow. He covers alot of them. And in greater depth and with more proficiency than many of the books that cover just "one" analytic. He tells you how each analytic would be used proficiently, and when it would be dangerous to use. Keep in mind that all of the tools he describes are not recommended, but part of a broader suggestion on how to build your own trading system. Lastly, his covering of the Miscellaneous Analytics is worth the price of the book. It was not the best part of the book, however, it covered areas like Market Vane and CFTC Committments of Traders! In that same section he talks about trading against the herd, (being contrarian) and how to discern who the 'big money' is in Futures Markets. NO ONE has ever mentioned this information in any of the other books I have read. If there was a single book that one could read to begin from there to trade, I would say this is it...although, I would strongly recommend against that. Anyway, this book is in the top 3 of books that cover this subject in the broadest of terms. I do not know what the other two are, but if you are interested in trading for a profession, then read this book.
Forget this one.......2007-05-23

One of the best book on trading I've read........2007-05-12
I am a "professional" floor trader of over 15 years. Although I have been very successful, this book has given me more ideas on improving- not just my trading- but my life also.. and I haven't even read 1/2 the book yet!
I'm also using some of Dr. Elder's principles to improve my girlfriends 9 year old son's outlook on bettering his life. He is very emotional and I'm trying to teach him about controlling his emotions as Dr. Elder teaches in this book.
The book was recommended to me by a successful trader/trading instructor. Boy am I glad I got it. Thanks Nelson! I recommend it to anyone who wants to improve their financial status through trading.

After having read the book, readers will better understand the underlying theory and the opportunities for applying real option theory in corporate decision-making."
-Chris D. Treharne, President, Gibraltar Business Appraisals, Inc.
"This text provides an excellent follow up to Dr. Mun's first book, Real Options Analysis.

-Charles T. Hardy, PhD, Chief Financial Officer & Director of Business Development, Panorama Research, Inc.

-Robert Fourt, Partner, Gerald Eve (UK)
"Mun provides a practical step-by-step guide to applying simulation and real options analysis-invaluable to those of us who are no longer satisfied with conventional valuation approaches alone."
