What did you love best about Options Trading: QuickStart Guide?

Overall it had some great basic information to get a foundation in trading.

If you’ve listened to books by ClydeBank Finance before, how does this one compare?

Better and more useful that others because it covers all the metaphorical bases

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

This book was easy to listen to in one sitting

This book is a great starting point

“Full Disclosure: I received this book for free in exchange for my honest and unbiased review” I have been looking to get into options trading for a long time. This book has been the bridge to desire and action.

this book was great I taught me alot about options

I would read this book over again gives great advice on how to trade

Excellent Options Trading audio book

Would you listen to Options Trading: QuickStart Guide again? Why?

The Options trading quick start guide audio book is really good. The narrator is very clear, concise and speaks in a nice, deliberate tone that is easy to follow.

I have a basic understanding of options trading and have made some option trades in the past, but haven’t been actively trading in a while now.

I found this audio book to be really informative and helpful. It explains the essential basics of options including their history, different kinds of options that are available and the different option trading methodologies that can be used.

Some of the methodologies explained include: buying calls and puts and covered and naked calls.

The audio book also provides probably the best explanation of what a market maker is and why they do what they do that I have ever heard. It also explains very simply what options terms like in/out of the money, historical and implied volatility and why these terms are important to you as an investor.

The section I found most helpful and enjoyable is the one on the “Greeks”. I was never able to gain an understanding of what these terms meant or what they were used for since they can be a little complicated to understand. This audio book did a good job of explaining them simply and what they are useful for including: Delta, Gamma, Theta, Vega and Rho.

I also really liked the section on trading strategies including calculating breakeven prices and using the “Greeks” and historical/implied volatility to fully understand and execute your trade plans.

I think this audio book is a great reference to gain not only a basic understanding of options trading but also to gain confidence in your ability to find and execute successful trades.

Great addition to the World of Stocks and Trading

Would you listen to Options Trading: QuickStart Guide again? Why?

Yes, I will and I have repeated listening to the book by itself and in conjunction with other information from Clyde Bank. The information is broken down for the novice and the non traditional student, those that have ventured into this interest at a later time in life and may not have the skill level for the Jargon used by advanced brokers, traders and such.

Who was your favorite character and why?

N/A

Have you listened to any of Peter Bierma’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Yes, as previously stated Peter brings a non monotone characteristic to this audible book. It is as though you are listening to your educated friend and not a monotone professor. which is important in keeping the interest of the listener.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Leaning about the 6 Option Trading Websites – Amex.com, Boston Option Exchange, d Chicago board Exchange, International securities Exchange, New York stock Exchange, Philadelphia stock exchange, European Style option and American Style Options; however this book focuses on American. There is so much information in this audible, but it is laid out in an interesting format and explicit detail is given where all can understand.

Any additional comments?

First and foremost this book was purchased by me at a heavily discounted price for a honest review of its content. I choose to receive this book as I have always had interest in Trading and Options Trading by Clyde Bank was my first choice as I have purchased books from this business and they have all been extremely educational and the books that have will remain in my repertoire of income options.

awesome

I struggle to understand the concept at 1st but with repeated listen and taking notes you'll have at least the basics. Only, downfall. Is you have to remember to email the company for the PDF accompaniment. Should have a direct link for paying customer. But the audible book is on point!
