A great many people figure they can learn options trading a similar way they learned stock trading, which is merely purchasing options on stocks they think would progress nicely. It's just that straightforward would it say it isn't? Indeed, the straightforwardness closes when they find that there is not one sort of option but rather two and some choice has incalculable strike prices and expiration dates! Truth is stranger than fiction! They all of a sudden understand that there is a whole lot more to options trading than stock trading.
