I like to look for option strategy ideas, so this highly ranked, inexpensive book should be perfect right? Unfortunately one of the downsides is that the book really doesn't say anything about Option Strategies. The words "Call Option" appear in just one table, when he lists the trades produced by his method for one year.It mostly talks about market cyclicality, esp about the work of WD Gann. There is some brief technical analysis & candlestick charts but too much vague arm waving to really get anything concrete from it. Much of the cycle talk is too crazy for me. Cycles of the moon and "heliocentric movements of Saturn" don't impress me even when he has some scientific papers to back it up.So he does list the rules for his method that he trades. I don't know if its any good or not, I wouldn't trust it from reading this book. He does advertise his seminars, but fair play this isn't just a sales brochure.Finally the book is listed as 105 pages, but half of that is appendices which are a copy of WD Gann's writings, including his predictions for 1929 which you can thankfully skip.I hate leaving 1 star reviews, but I have to for this book. The 5 star reviews have to be fake. At least I learned Kindle does refunds!
Haven't read the book yet so I'll update later. Just an FYI though. This is a 99¢ hook to move you on to an online video which at the end offers you a $1,997 options cycle training dvd package. So there you go.
Julian Sebastian shares another cycle based trading strategy. My guess is that this is one piece of his complete trading plan. What I liked the most is his forecasting ideas and how he shared the specifics of his entry process. Making sure trades meet certain profit criteria based on his forecast before he would consider taking the trade. With this book you get the complete strategy.
The learning curve of trading stock options can seem like a daunting, endless climb. That being said you ABSOLUTELY NEED to educate yourself before jumping it head first. There are sharks out there looking to eat up the smaller fish like us. Read this book before you get started trading, it will get you going in the right direction and give you the information you need in order to get started. Don't risk any money before reading this book and as many other books as you can
This book attempts to predict future market price and time targets, using a technique that has been previously explored with some success by Stevenson,for use with trading e-minis, and once again suggests the notion of stock market cycles, although a much better understanding can be gained through the work of J M Hurst. His approach to drawing the appropriate vector is the easiest I have seen, and the rules of engagement for entering and exiting the market are clear. Retrospective analysis looks pretty good, but I wouldn't put real money on the table without doing some forward testing with practice accounts, I think using index funds is key.
"Stock Options Trading Strategies" by Julian Sebastian JD is a very valuable acquisition for serious investors who seek to do things more scientifically. The author begins with large amplitude cycles prediction which demonstrates the huge regions for a stock to rise. Next, he develops the concept of a cycle vector to explain the movement mathematically. The discussion moves to a price trend which explains the dynamics of the price and time of two trade bars.The chapter on forecasting reaches a crescendo when the author demonstrates how the data mirrors the last complete cycle. Lastly, the book goes through the particulars of high probability success trading. As a stock market enthusiast, this reviewer can tell readers that "Stock Options Trading Strategies" by Sebastian is a valuable book on how to trade for profit.There are other pointers that aren't in this book; however, implementing these steps will really cement the probability of a successful and profitable trade. Investors should always study the published "insider activity" on any given stock because insiders usually know what is about to happen with a stock movement before anyone else. The other thing is to study what the industry is doing by peeking at the SEC filings for each stock under consideration. Log onto the Edgar System of the SEC to do this.Overall, ""Stock Options Trading Strategies" by Julian Sebastian JD is a valuable book which every investor should have. Buy it before the price goes up which will be sooner rather than later.America's Elder Boomers: (Learn How To Live Life Better In Old Age)
Good parts: briefly, I can say, that it's a good book for its price. It reveals a concrete options strategy, based on authors experience, market cycles theory and work of W.D.Gann (and I like concrete strategies in opposite to prolixity). The strategy is pretty simple, so it is a good fit for DIY.Bad parts: simply, I don't think this strategy will work out as excitingly as it is described in the book. Authors take a period of 2015 for SPY and claim that his strategy won 7 times of total 9 entrances, and the gain was huge several times, comparing to limited losses. I checked out it a little bit further for SPY (starting in 2013). And I got 23/16 win/loss ratio, which is not so impressive, right? Also, I think that 100% and more gain is not so frequent for this strategy. Therefore, I think one should barely have a break even following this strategy blindly. What I also found is that it works much better for call options than for put options. Of course, this is just my findings and my sample can be not representative at all. Also, what I didn't like is that the last part of the book is just a print of W.D. Gann work whcih can be interesting to look at the museum, but not in the options trading book, I guess.
