Option Trading: Pricing and Volatility Strategies and Techniques

My brother said he thought it was great

Cover every fundamental about option Greeks and where it come from.Is not directly a set of recipes to deal Option trading. But Option trading is very complex and if you can't ready such a book you better avoid it.A very good reference book by a guy who know enough the matter to shed light and truths on some myths about Options TradingThe one to read before going on web to complete your training with all recipe like Iron Condor etc ...

There are a handful of must-read books on Options trading and this book and the author's earlier book Volatility Trading are 2 must-reads for anyone interested in trading options. The book can be useful for anyone -from the beginner to the professional. While the author has kept the options mathematics to a minimal level, it does require some basic level of comfort with mathematical concepts. Sinclair is clear, concise and very practitioner oriented. It's rare to see a trader write (and write well) a book for traders. I enjoyed the chapters on Pin Risk and Options Market-Making, topics not discussed in many options books.

This book deals more with options and how they are priced based on mathematical equations rather than on strategies to take advantage of market situations. The author also covers the history of the option market, the greeks but just misses the meat which I was looking for. Great book for math students. I skipped over most of that part. This was the wrong book for myself but may work better for a class room of students learning the theory. Obviously the writer is highly intelligent, but would make a better reading book if he could relate to a wider population selection.
