We wanted to start actively trading options and need some basic training on concepts. Does anyone know who I can contact for this? thanks

sorry....you made me even more confused now....:-) if you have traded in the Futures Market than you surely understand the concept of the options... what has day-trading to do with this ? you can daytrade currencies, shs, futures, options etc etc ....

Hi Socalgirl, Why do you say that day trading is more dangerous ?

yes, Lenochka, I've day traded for years in the futures markets. I feel that day trading is alot more dangerous than trading options. I have a whole course on options available to me. I just need someone to spend a few hours with to learn the real basics of options and I'll move on to strategys from there myself. Hope this clarifies a little more. thanks

Not sure if I understand you right....do you have experience in trading shares and Fixed Income (Bonds) products ? or other relevant market knowledge ? Don't want to dampen your enthusiasm but options are HIGH RISK and ALL aspects need to be understood in depth. I would not advice anybody to trade options or futures, or any other derivative for that matter, with just basic knowledge/training on concepts... unless you want to gamble - but then maybe a casino is more fun ! :-) Seriously, beware...the risk is big and you can easily use all the premium invested (in simple scenarious, such as buying a call/put option....on others, even worse scenarious/products/strategies you will be asked for margin calls...i.e. cough up more money....and then the risk us UNLIMITED !!!
