A technical book that’s informative on appropriate strategies that can be taken to earn income from options trading.

The author advocates strongly for risk management and advises against taking on unsuitable trades that might expose one to unlimited losses.

What I also liked was how the author explains the various levels to consider in a trade, how to manage winners and losers.

What I think could have been better would be to include charts to show the various trades. I’m a visual learner and would have absorbed the contents easier in that way.

A good read for intermediate learners on the options strategies.
