Product Description

Product Description

From the nation′s top options expert and best–selling finance author––the very latest strategies in option trading

McMillan on Options is like Buffett on stocks––savvy, street–wise, and always ahead of the investment curve. Which is why results–hungry options traders, institutional investors, and portfolio managers snapped up more than 100,000 copies of his first book, Options as a Strategic Investment, and tens of thousands more exhaustively study his three advisory newsletters. In this eagerly–awaited book, one of the financial world′s leading market makers reveals the very latest in options pricing strategies and hedging techniques. Traders will welcome the definitive coverage of volatility, pricing strategies, hedging techniques, and, of course, the author′s personal options philosophy.

LAWRENCE G. McMILLAN (Randolf, New Jersey) is the editor of The Option Strategist Newsletter. He writes a weekly investment advisory letter, Hedged Options Strategies, and as well as Thompson MacKinnon′s Options Letter, and How to Make Money with Stock Options. He was formerly senior vice president of the Equity Arbitrage Department at Thomas MacKinnon Securities.


From the Inside Flap

McMillan on Options is savvy, streetwise, and always ahead of the investment curve. That’s why results–hungry options traders, institutional investors, and portfolio managers made his Options As a Strategic Investment a bestseller. Now, Lawrence G. McMillan, the country’s top options expert, has written his definitive guide on options trading strategies. Information is the most vital tool an investor can possess, and McMillan on Options is packed with thorough, up–to–date coverage of pricing strategies, hedging techniques, options philosophy, volatility, and risk control. In short, exactly the information you need to stay on top in a continually evolving marketplace. This eagerly awaited book illustrates how to establish self–contained strategies, substitute options for other instruments, and protect your position—whether it’s in stock, index, or futures options. McMillan will help you discover ways of applying options that you may not even be aware of. With revealing insights on the predictive power of options, trading systems, and strategies, both short– and long–term investors will appreciate McMillan’s in–depth coverage of:
  • stock, index, and futures options
  • a wide range of strategies—and how they can help you make money
  • numerous case studies, figures, and examples that illustrate key concepts and ideas
  • the methodology of trading, from order entry to data sources
  • the integration of theoretical issues with practical applications of techniques, strategies, and trading methods
Illuminated by the author’s personal options philosophy, McMillan on Options is the most up–to–date, innovative, and complete options strategy resource available.

5.0 out of 5 stars Intermediate to Expert text on Options, 6 Jul 1999
By A Customer
Having never traded options before but having an engineering background, I found the text as dry as my college engineering textbooks, but as informative as ever. I finally got the hang of it by the last chapter, and found it more informative reading the second time.

I CANNOT IMAGINE TRADING OPTIONS W/O A FULL UNDERSTANDING OF THE CONCEPTS HE PRESENTS. It is not, however, intuitive to the novice options trader. It may take reading a second time to get the hang of it.

4.0 out of 5 stars A lot of valuable information on practical options trading, 15 Oct 1998
By A Customer
This book is quite easy to follow if one pays sufficient attention. The math content that is present in most books on options is kept to a minimum in this volume.There is a lot of great practical trading advice, especially in the section dealing with locked-limit moves. McMillan also shows the reader how to dynamically interpret the put-call ratio and implied volatility levels.Good information on OEX and SPX options trading as well. This is great book for both futures and stock traders and of course, for options traders.

This is all theory and no application. McMillan's broker states that he loses money and makes money from his books. Show us your trades and not the theory.
