Rating: Summary: Best Options Book on the Market Review: I really liked this book. Easy to understand, cuts through to the heart of the matter so that you can grasp how to trade options.I hope Mr. Fontanills writes more. I would certainly buy it.
Rating: Summary: Best book I have ever read on options Review: Unlike many options books, I actually understood this one. I have been trading for a while and never understood options trading. Now I truly believe I can trade options like a pro.
Rating: Summary: Try to avoid of mathematics. Review: First, I read a copy in a library, it might be old. However, the error seems not a typo. Maybe, he is good at investment. Maybe he could teach others how to avoid of mathematics. But if when he is talking in Mathematics, he'd better say it correctly. This guy don't know how to calculate "Expect Value"! If one use his formula to calculate risk, one may believe he is going to win while he is more likely to lose. So, it might be a good book. But better read it with caution.
Rating: Summary: Must Read for all Options Traders Review: I saw Fontanills on CNBC and bought his book. It is an easy to understand options book that talks about how to find high profit low risk trades. At last a book on options that is positive and I could understand.
Rating: Summary: Great introduction to option trading Review: As a new trader I really liked the easy to read format of the book. I had heard about Fontanills from a friend that had done well following his strategies. I hope to do the same. Book sets out step by step how to trade. Cuts through the jargon. Nice book. If I can understand it anyone can!!
Rating: Summary: Makes Option Trading Easy to Understand - At Last Review: I recognized GF on a plane. He was trying to sleep and I asked him about the markets. I was amazed at his knowledge and the time he would take to answer my questions. He is just a regular guy that taught himself how to trade. I bought his book and thought his story amazing. A cancer victim, told he was going to die and fought back. Refused to accept the doctors advice. Taught himself how to invest and became a money manager and author. The book covers the basics and then explains in easy to understand format how to trade options. Finally it all made sense for me and I started trading. Following Fontanills advice from the book I doubled my money in 5 days in a Microsoft trade. Thank goodness that people like George Fontanills are around to explain things so everyone can understand. I have read all the books on option trading and think this the best. It is so simple and does not waste time with detail that you don't need to know. It is not as complicated as McMillan on options .. which is a great book-end for me. Only complaint. I wanted more of it and would buy the next book in an instant.
Rating: Summary: Wow! Learn to use options to take advantage of volatility. Review: Thank you so much for writing a book that clearly explains how options can be used to take advantage of the ridiculous volatility of today's markets. The strategies in this book are clearly understandable and make sense. Making money on options is all about doing the risk, reward and breakeven calculations to find the most profitable scenario. I can't wait to see what George writes next...
Rating: Summary: Exceptional for traders of any level Review: As a professional trader I have read every book on trading stocks and options. This book has opened my eyes to the world of risk management techniques using options strategies. A must read for all traders and investors.
Rating: Summary: Excellent introduction to options Review: This is an incredible book. Fontanills introduces the world of options in an easy to follow format. I bought the workbook too for the exercises that compliment the course book. It is an easy to follow guide to get you involved in options. At last the laymans guide to options. Megan
Rating: Summary: A "must" introduction for the novice in options trading. Review: Give a man a fish (trade) and you will feed him for a day, teach him to fish (trade)and you will feed him for life. This is THE introduction to sensible options trading (or any other trading). It does not cover everything but it does give you the correct path to follow. An excellent introduction to risk control and low stress trading. It is also a very good introduction to the excellent seminars conducted by George Fontanills. Stan Graham -- Sunnyvale CA.
