Below is my review of Options, Futures, and Other Derivatives...
It's a must
Options, Futures and Other Derivatives is a must for anyone seeking to seriously study derivative markets. The publication is written in the style of a text book (no surprise seeing that the author is a university professor) and contains many illustrations, headings and published content that helps the reader understand what is being taught. The topics in this publication can be hard to understand, the publication does better than most others at explaining to the novice.
It covers everything
You will find no other publication that is so comprehensive. Options, Futures, and Other Derivatives contains whole sections on Futures, Futures for Hedging, Forward Contracts, Swaps, Interest Rate Futures, Options, Stock Options, Trading Strategies for Options, Currency and Stock Index Options, Risk Management, Exotic Options and other material. The book offers everything you need to know for a general and basic understanding of the titled financial products.
Summary
If you are looking to trade Forex or stocks, this book will probably not be for you. If you are seeking to trade Options and/or Futures or wanting to gain a clear understanding of those markets, then this book is for you. You will find no other text that provides greater insight and teaches with as much clarity. I highly recommend Options, Futures, and Other Derivatives.
