Does anyone have an recommendations for learning how to trade options? I've just started, so I'm trying to get the basics down, but eventually, I'd like to learn more advanced trading like straddles and strangles. Is there one book that is comprehensive and also easy to read?
I'm looking at Michael Thomsett's book Getting Started In Options, but some reviews on Amazon say it's too basic.
One of the options books I'm reading right now is "The Volatility Edge in Options Trading." By Jeff Augen
It gives good info on trading with Vega and Volatility for earnings reports, has graphs showing how delta and gamma change as the expiration of the option approaches, and has some good examples of options trades going good and bad. Alot of it is still over my head but over all it has good info.
