Is it a coincidence that every review that has given this book 5 stars are from users that have never reviewed another book? Suspicious anyone? The author should be ashame of himself. I can't believe there isn't a better system on Amazon to prevent such abuse from authors and associates. If you read the reviews the writing style even resemble each other and always address the author by his first name or full name in the beginning of the review. I'm giving this ONE big fat star!

I found this book so helpful in my trading because it helped me grasp the concept of volatility in options trading and explained it in such a simplistic manner. I also appreciated the way the author walked you through the trades step by step with pictures so that i could understand his thought processes behind each trade. The best part was how he would give examples of the same trade with a conservative trade approach and an agressive trade approach since i enjoy learning the agressive trading approach right away.There was a ton of valuable information in this book and I especially liked how he explained in detail how to exit the spread trades. sincerely , mary oneil

This book is a must for all investors in the stock market whether you are an option trader or stock buyer for your portfolio. It is written very clear and is very easy to understand. He takes a complicated trade and takes you thru the steps of how and what he is doing. He makes it look so easy. His indicators are explained step by step on how to use them and what they mean. I have had the pleasure of attending several of his workshops on technical indicators and trading and find himto be a very sincere and dedicated teacher of matters relating to trading and the stock market.

The book helps investors of all types understand various ways to use options to trade either a bullish or bearish market. The first chapter about technical indicators is priceless showing why on January 2nd 2008 the writer called for a bear market. Readers will not only learn more about Technical Indicators and Option Strategies, they will also be helping the Alzheimer's Foundation as proceeds from the book are going to the Foundation on behalf of the writers Father who passed away in 2005.

This book has been instrumental in helping me to create my trading plan. It's clear, concise, and much more of a how-to book than theory. I know what an option is. What I need to know is how to trade them. So many other books just give you definitions without explaining how to build a profitable trading strategy. Mark Larson explains how to use options to make consistent profits. Detailed explanations, examples, and charts help to make his sytem of trading clear. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is trying to bridge the gap between theory and actual profits!

Mark is a great teacher and the book has good material that's worth reading over and over as you will pick up more each time. I would also suggest checking out other works he's done, they are of equal quality and offer some diverse perspectives on approaches to trading.

Mark Larson is a gifted trader. I respect Mr. Larson's success not only as a great trader, but his willing spirit to "give back" to the community. Mark teaches how to trade successfuly from a retail traders understanding of the market.

Marks book will open your eyes of how the wealthy build and maintain their wealth. By using leverage with options its opened a new world of trading to me of how to maximize every dollar invested and make big money.

Not only does this book break the code of silence that option traders usually stick to but it translates the code into a simple language that every person can easily understand. Great Job! Mark.
Thank you for another great book.

I really like how Mark explains how to trade options in a bullish and bearish market. I like that he uses technical indicators. I am glad Mark has Fibonacci Retracements in his book to show support and resistance in his book. Thanks Mark for writting Big Money, Less Risk.
