A good introduction to options and various strategies involved. The author writes also about the profiles of various strategies and what one would see on their screens as they go through the trades.

I learnt that some strategies are traded mainly intra day, e.g. iron butterfly, which is more likely to have one leg closed within a short period of time to capture the profit.

Overall good read.
