Publisher's Note
Although professional options traders sometimes make huge profits, very few ordinary investors trade options successfully. Many investors simply stay away from options because they are intimidated by the high-level mathematics found in most options books. Others, armed with an inadequate or incomplete knowlege of options, end up losing a large portion of their trading capital. Written by veteran trader and options instructor Ronald Frost, Options on Futures is an attempt to level the playing field. Dispensing with theory and emphasizing practical information, Options on Futures is the most down-to-earth, easy-to-understand guide to profitable options trading available today. Options on Futures focuses on strategies which can be applied by every trader in every market. Covering the full range of techniques, from the basics of buying and selling puts and calls to sophisticated strategies such as strangles, straddles and various spreads, the book is both comprehensive and authoritative. All the strategies discussed in the book are fully evaluated, from the risk/reward parameters, to breakeven points, to the effect of time on the position. As a result, the reader gets a very precise picture of the advantages and disadvantages of each strategy and can easily compare one strategy versus another. Most importantly, the reader can choose which strategies best match his or her risk tolerance, profit objective and time commitment. In other words, the reader can evaluate the entire range of options strategies and make the most intelligent choice possible. Filled with examples, simulated exercises and tests, Options on Futures is designed to function much like a workbook. Although important conceptslike volatility and time decay are fully covered, the emphasis is on hands on practical information that will enable someone to quickly grasp the essentials of options trading. No other book captures the excitement of options trading like Options on Futures. By encouraging readers to take positions in simulated markets, readers are made to feel the ecstacy of winning, the agony of losing and the constant risk which is an inescapable part of trading options. For someone who wants a market savvy and easy-to-understand approach to trading options, Options on Futures is a perfect book.

Through real-market simulations, the book helps readers understand the strategies, risks and rewards of options trading. Renowned trading educator Ronald Frost reveals how different strategies perform in different market environments and recommends approaches to fit an individual's risk tolerance, patience and time commitment. A great book for someone seriously interested in trading options. Topics include: The factors influencing options price; Strategies to profit from chages in volatility; Combining options strategies with technical anlaysis; Cutting losses, increasing profits and managing accounts; The best strategies for traders at different risk levels.

Industry Reviews
For private investors who want to cash in on the huge profits professionals make on trading futures options, a practical tutorial and guide that bypasses the deep theory and high mathematics most explanations contain. Covers getting started, factors affecting price, the major strategies, and choosing strategies. Includes market simulations throughout that demonstrate the interactions of risk, reward, breakeven points, time decay, and other factors. Expanded from the 1989 edition.
