It also includes a glossary of industry terms and jargon to help you along the way.

“From the visuals to the content which has been influenced by our research and hands-on experience, our goal was to create a trader’s almanac,” Battista says. “It was written for new traders and as a reference for veterans looking for new options strategies.”
