5.0 out of 5 stars Good tips
After reading a lot of technical options strategy books, what I like about this book is that it is to the point, does not repeat itself much, and offers good ideas and tips. This book is good for someone that already knows the basics of options. It describes a lot of options strategies and list which ones the author thinks is most powerful. The author lists the...

2.0 out of 5 stars Marketing material?, April 27, 2005

This review is from: 101 Option Trading Secrets (Paperback)
I thought this title would be great seeing as how it was the only options book wrapped in plastic on the shelf. It's just ok. The secrets are more like "nuggets" of information and indeed, there is a bit of product hype in every secret.

After reading a lot of technical options strategy books, what I like about this book is that it is to the point, does not repeat itself much, and offers good ideas and tips. This book is good for someone that already knows the basics of options. It describes a lot of options strategies and list which ones the author thinks is most powerful. The author lists the advantages and disadvantages of the different strategies. It is up to you to decide which strategy is best suited for your risk-to-reward zone and then do some more research. This book is like a list of 101 tips. If you do not like to read books with chapters that can be summarized into a few paragraphs then this book is for you.

1.0 out of 5 stars If there was an option for negative stars I would select it., January 16, 2006

This review is from: 101 Option Trading Secrets (Paperback)
This book was a major disappointment and the author has given nothing new or important to the arena of Options Trading. Given that his highest recommendation is to buy out of money options in hope of a "long shot" as he puts it, I think I will look elsewhere to find better risk / reward set up's and a more strategic plan.

His "secrets" are 1 page of non-sense followed by his unwarranted bragging about how he profited from a trade similar to the strategy he explained.

All in All, this book is a joke and waste of time to anyone serious about trading options.

5.0 out of 5 stars Book is straight to the point., January 4, 2010
This review is from: 101 Option Trading Secrets (Paperback)
Having read many options books, this book stands out from the crowd in a way that it takes you straight to the point on trading options. If you are a beginner or have a little bit of experience this is the book to get. If you are an expert or have been trading options for a while there is nothing new to learn apart from a few secrets here and there. I would recommend this book to anyone who is tired of reading books on options that tell you nothing important including a lot of emphasis on what options are and has no real secrets on how to hit home runs in options. Again I have been paper trading options for a while and this is the best book so far out of about 50 that I have had. If you are brand new to options just get the basics elsewhere and get this book once you are ready to trade. You will not be disappointed.

1.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely Pathetic, December 6, 2008

This review is from: 101 Option Trading Secrets (Paperback)
OK first of all I have 100's of books, and there are a lot of them I don't like. Only this one made me mad enough to get out of bed and write a review. I probably bought it over a year ago, so I just decided to check it out tonight and I could not believe what I was reading.

The ENTIRE book is like a breif description of a strategy and THATS IT!!!
Every chapter is 1 to 2 pages!

This book has to be the biggest con I've ever seen.

Ever chapter title leads you to believe that you're in for such a treat, and you are so let down when you find it's 1 to 2 pages long MAX!!!!

DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!!!!

All I can say is "Ken what were you thinking??"

Could you not at least try and impress us??

Rather than tell us about 101 strategies why don't you go into detail on 3 that would be much more effective, and people wouldn't be so pissed off.

1.0 out of 5 stars waste of time and no value, October 14, 2011
This review is from: 101 Option Trading Secrets (Paperback)
I can't imagine that there could be a worse book than this on this subject; what a waste of time. The entire contents could be summarized in one chapter, the rest is pointless and misleading waffle. It really is a waste of time to read a 310-page book that offers neither insight nor knowledge. Indeed, I'd be bankrupt if used his methods. I concede that the author is an expert in the field, but unfortunately in this book he doesn't want to teach readers anything real or useful from his own experience; instead he spends almost the whole book marketing himself and his services.
