Description
Unlike most books on derivative products, Options Explained 2 is a practical guide, covering theoretical concepts only where they are essential to applying options on a wide variety of assets. Written with the emphasis on a practical, straightforward approach, Options Explained succeeds in demystifying what has traditionally been treated as a highly complex product. The 2nd edition also includes over 100 pages of new material, with sections on exotic options, worldwide accounting practices and issues in volatility estimation.
