"The Volatility Course" ist ein praktischer Wegweiser durch das Labyrinth der heutigen instabilen Märkte. In extrem schwankungsanfälligen Märkten geht es schnell mal eben in einer Woche oder an einem Tag 10% rauf oder runter. Um hier erfolgreich zu handeln, ist ein spezielles Know-How erforderlich. Dieses Buch vermittelt Aktien- und Optionshändlern genau dieses Know-How. Zunächst geben die Autoren eine fundierte Einführung in das Thema Marktvolatilität einschlie lich ihrer Ursachen. Sie entwickeln eine umfassende Übersicht, aus der genau hervorgeht, wie man Schwankungen erkennt. Darüber hinaus vermitteln sie bewährte Strategien und Tools, mit deren Hilfe man die Schwankungsbreite messen und Pläne erstellen kann, die auf verschiedenste Marktbedingungen zugeschnitten sind. Das begleitende Arbeitsbuch "The Volatility Course Workbook" enthält eine Fülle von Übungsaufgaben, die den Leser Schritt für Schritt mit den erläuterten Strategien vertraut machen, bevor er sie in den Märkten praktisch umsetzt.
Like The Options Course by the same author this is a very detailed publication with lots of examples. However it does become a bit heavh going the further you get into it. The message early on is worth the read but with the amount of detail in some of the examples one does tend to lose interest.
Great book

If you have done the optionetics course or read the Options Course then you will love this book. It only covers a few chapters on Volatility, which I would have liked there to be more, however, there were a number of chapters on practical ways to trade it. I particularly liked some of the indicators to trade volatility such as bollinger bands and ATR. Overall a good read and a clear, understandable approach to help improve you as an options trader. Its probably worth a second read, as its full of a lot of great information.
Perfect Compliment

This book is the perfect compliment to The Volatility Course by George Fontanills. It uses real case studies and guides you through step-by-step just like the main book. It tests your knowledge learned from the main coursebook. As with any new subject, learning options takes time and this book really helps the time you spend feel more productive.

As an Options Trader I was always overwelmed by all the tools available to me, and by the barrage of financial news. I had information paralisys. Where do I start? What kind of stock behavior should I be trading in this current market? And once I found a stocks I liked, What kind of strategy needs to be applied? Exactly how do I find the best options for this stock?This book is the real thing. I am a "follow the checklist" kind of person, and I have always been looking for sensible process to look for trades. Something simple yet able to give me consistent results.Knowing that Implied volatility is such a factor in option pricing, I now can navigate thru tha maze of option chains and pick exactly what is required for my trades, because now I know what trade needs to be done.This book is fascinating and it has the "See thru the eyes of the trader" approach I was looking for. This book has now taken the place of about five other books that I will be auctioning online.A Masterpiece!!!
