THE SECRET TO PROFITING FROM OPTIONS:
THINK LIKE A PROFESSIONAL OPTION TRADER, NOT A STOCK TRADER!
Want to win in options? You must think like a professional option trader. Step #1: Get rid of the habits you learned in stock trading: they're killing you! Step #2: Understand the real dynamics of options markets: they are radically, fundamentally different.
Example: When stock traders look at price, they see information. Option traders see probability, time, and volatility. Example: Stock trading is about having an information advantage. Option trading can be about exploiting a lack of information. Example: Stocks either go up or they don't. Option trades can be structured for a 90% probability of success.
With dynamics like these, option trading is like nothing else. Through practical, simple examples, Michael Benklifa will help you understand what's really going on here...so you can consistently build trades that earn profits and control risk!

Dateiformat: ePUBKopierschutz: Wasserzeichen-DRM (Digital Rights Management)
Systemvoraussetzungen:
Das Dateiformat ePUB ist sehr gut für Romane und Sachbücher geeignet - also für „fließenden” Text ohne komplexes Layout. Bei E-Readern oder Smartphones passt sich der Zeilen- und Seitenumbruch automatisch den kleinen Displays an. Mit Wasserzeichen-DRM wird hier ein „weicher” Kopierschutz verwendet. Daher ist technisch zwar alles möglich – sogar eine unzulässige Weitergabe. Aber an sichtbaren und unsichtbaren Stellen wird der Käufer des E-Books als Wasserzeichen hinterlegt, sodass im Falle eines Missbrauchs die Spur zurückverfolgt werden kann.
