Some books you pick up and you know from the first page that the author
really knows what he is talking about. Trading experience quickly shows through when
writing books about trading and trading methods.
Katiforis knows the options market and it shows. This is an excellent discussion of
options trading strategies for stock index, commodities, interest rates, currencies and
other futures markets using a range of option instruments. He includes strategies and
tactics for trading directional and flat markets as well as trending markets.
Each section includes a discussion of the characteristics of the market
and the major factors which effect price behavior. Each of the strategies discussed
includes comprehensive notes on risk characteristics, profit potential, the effects of
time decay and implied volatility. This is a very practical book.
He uses OptionVue software to set up and analyze the trading
opportunities. Later sections of the book show screen shots of these processes. This is
high end trading, and not suitable for the beginner. These are markets dominated by the
professionals, and Katiforis outlines some major principles in options trading used by
professional traders but usually unknown to many private traders.
This is an excellent book for traders interested in trading options in
general, and options on futures in particular. For Australian traders this provides the
most comprehensive coverage of options instruments available.
