Title: Options on the side for meat and potato investors
Product review: A simple, straightforward overview of options of every flavor and combination. Bittman advocates use of options as a complement to regular, non-speculative stock investing. He relies heavily on profit-loss diagrams to make the performance of option positions crystal clear. Only elementary math is involved, which may be a disappointment to those who are not scared off by the mere mention of standard deviations.The software included is based upon the Black-Scholes theory of option value and pricing. It's useful for playing around with the numbers, but don't expect a sophisticated user interface with lots of analytical capability. For that you'll probably have to dish out some real bucks
