Course Outline

Options are simple, directional instruments, but the fact that they offer more flexibility to investors also makes the transaction of these instruments more complicated than transactions of stocks. If you start transacting without understanding how the market operates, you run the risk of making an "unforced error." This mini-course will keep you from doing that! Download Syllabus
Course Goal: Understand the details of transacting options on an exchange, the players in the space, and the information given by option volume data.
