 Lives up to its billing November 16, 2008
M. E. Nahl (Virginia Beach, VA)
This book lives up to its billing. It methodically explains and evaluates the gamut of options techniques from most simple to most complex. In doing so, it explains the rationale for using the strategy, the risks and rewards,how to set it up and how to unwind it. It provides useful examples and good common sense advice. Best book on options trading I have ever seen.
The Bible of Options Strategies: The Definitive Guide for Practical Trading Strategies October 9, 2008
Christopher Hanson (St. Louis MO, USA)
This is the sixth book I have read on Options Strategies and by far it is the best I have read. Guy walks you through the construction an unraveling of strategies in a down to earth approach. First he explains how to build your strategies from a single option trade, and then to more complex strategies one leg at a time; to improve profits and reduce costs. He then explains how to monitor the strategy and best of all how to exit the strategy when it is doing well, and if not so good. I love his continual reminders of "don't be greedy". He does a very nice job explaining which strikes to pick for the strategy and why. Guy does a great job explaining the Greeks and how each Greek affects each strategy. This book is an absolute keeper for any options library.
Outside academia, this is the only option book you'll need September 10, 2008

I have several books on options, but this is the one book that I keep on using. Most option books spend too much time on how to price an option. Unless you are active in thinly traded options, the market will dictate the current market price. This book gets right into why you are interested in options. Each option situation is broken down so anybody with a basic understanding will understand. For each situation, he discusses the Greeks (the new hip way of talking about options), risks, pros and cons, as well as an example. The only subject this book seems to fall short is what to do when your position is not going your way and how to minimize your loss.
I have a coworker that is interested in options and this was the only book I suggested he read.

This is more a dictionary of options strategies than a regular book. But it organizes and explains each strategy well.
Complete and Well Organized July 15, 2008
Brian Kendenthal (Coconut Creek, FL)
This book is a complete description of all option strategies. It is totally organized. Each strategy is described in exactly the same manner to facilitate comparsion of one strategy to another. It should be on any option player's bookshelf as a quick reference and guide.
