Don’t start trading options until you’ve read about these 4 proven strategies…

Are you looking for a straightforward way to increase your income?

Are you thinking about starting a side hustle that could eventually grant you financial freedom?

Do you want to make money on the stock market, without the risk of actually owning stocks?

If you’re struggling to build a reliable stream of extra income on the side, then investing in options could be your ticket to earning steady and consistent returns.

Because unlike other popular investment assets like crypto, real estate, and even stocks… trading options allow you to generate income from assets without owning them.

Which is like turning profit on real estate properties you didn’t buy.

So even if you don’t own shares in big-name stocks like Tesla or Facebook… you can still make extra money on the side simply based on how they perform.

In fact, you could stand to gain as much as a 25% return on your investment in your first year of trading… which is more than twice what you’d expect to make trading stocks on average.

Now, you may have heard that trading options are risky and extremely complicated. And it’s true — you can lose more than your shirt if you don’t use the right options trading strategies.

That’s because many traders don’t even use strategies and merely buy and sell options like gamblers at a casino.

So as long as you’re using a proper options trading strategy and understand the correct ways to minimize your risk and maximize your profits… then it’s absolutely possible to make a reliable income trading options.

And the best part is you don’t have to know anything about investing or trading to get started. Because everything you need is right inside.

In this guide, you’ll discover:

  • How options are actually less risky and more profitable than trading stocks
  • The 6-step “DIVERS” method for finding the right option to trade
  • 8 dos and don’ts of options trading — avoid these rookie mistakes
  • The difference between US and European “style” options
  • What every investor should do before they even think about trading options — do this before every trade
  • An “automated” tool you can use to help you pick the perfect stock for your options trading strategy
  • Why more volatility can actually be more beneficial when trading options
  • How to get better at trading options using “fake” money
  • What are the “Greeks” and how they can help you “predict” the future
  • 4 beginner-friendly trading strategies anyone can use to start making money with options

And much more.

Whether you’re simply searching for a steady side hustle or want to turn options trading into your full-time job, this book lays the foundation for you to start earning money.

Don’t waste your hard-earned money trying to “learn” your way through options trading. By following the proven strategies provided in this book, you can avoid the pitfalls that most beginners make.

So even if you’ve never read a single book about the stock market… you can begin investing and generating returns like a seasoned pro.

If you’re ready to trade your way to financial independence, then scroll up and click the “Add to Cart” button right now.

This book offers a very informative, systematic approach to understanding the terminology and inner workings of option trading. It takes the mystery out of a lot of confusing terms and details a step-by-step approach for beginners wishing to become option investors vs gamblers.

Even though this is written for the beginner, I still found some of the material to be fairly complicated. As such, I think this book makes a really good reference and starting point to support further education on the topic.

I attended a great Options Trading class through TD Ameritrade years ago and lost the book and they don't have that training anymore so I was looking for a replacement. This book fit the bill. Best chapter by far was chp 13 : Trade Secrets. It basically hammered home that you should paper trade first and go for small and consistent wins, don't aim for or worry about the "home run" trade... that is a recipe for epic failure (and losing a lot of $$). Their term definitions and trade examples are great to get your feet wet, and the technical analysis chapters are enough to get you started with some really good boundaries (as long as folks pay attention to the boundaries and don't trade from emotion). Thanks for a great refresher, or beginning book, depending where you are in your trading journey.

Having dabbled in stock trading for some time, I was keen to explore the world of options trading, but the complexity often felt overwhelming. Luckily, I came across this book, and it was a game-changer. The author's ability to explain intricate concepts in a clear and concise manner is truly commendable. Trying to open paper trade account to see it how it really works.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great guide to put into practice
Reviewed in the United States on August 9, 2023

I've dabbled here and there in the markets, made some money and lost some money. Others around me were betting (let's call the stock market what it is - legalized gambling) fortunes on options, and some made a boatload and then lost a boatload. I'll tell you that options are not for the faint of heart, you have to pay attention to options trading when you're doing it. The author provides great information, I don't know if it's all that simple for a brand new person to options to pick up on though. Options trading is more like "guessing", even though the author explains things very well. This book would be excellent for a seasoned options trader as that person will have already known the principles and terminology.

I found this book to be insightful, whilst giving you the information you need. It is written with the novice in mind, without it seeming patronising. If you want to learn more about how this world works, and maybe even take a punt, I – in my capacity as a laymen – would recommend reading this.
