"As a veteran reader of some 500+ trading and investing books and
having interviewed hundreds of authors, I never take the approach
that you can believe what you read or hear about how to make money
in the market, so I try their theory, system, or ideas. Jeff
Augen's book lays down clear guidelines to his intraday options
strategy that I can report were profitable in the style I trade."
--Vincent M. Rowe, President, Online Trading Academy, Texas
"Augen's book breaks new ground with an indispensable and unique
approach to evaluating option prices in different time frames. It
also presents a new charting technique for evaluating very
short-term trends lasting just a few minutes-a valuable technique
for anyone who follows intraday markets. The statistical analysis
and associated discussions around high-frequency trading are
especially relevant in the modern financial world, which has come
to be dominated by supercomputers and algorithmic trading. No
serious stock or option trader should be without this book." --Sean
Sztern, Alternative Strategies Group, Desjardins Securities,
Montreal, Quebec "Jeff Augen's work on day trading options pulls
the curtain back and reveals insights from the world of very
short-term options trading. In doing so, he reveals insights
beneficial even for the longer-term option trader. Specifically,
Chapter 3 on trading volatility distortions introduces the idea of
3-D implied volatility surfaces. Far from being too advanced, this
chapter addresses complex volatility issues in plain English that
every option trader can understand. I wholly recommend this book."
--Steve Lentz, DiscoverOptions Minimize Your Exposure to Market
Risk and Increase Profits by Trading in Very Brief Time Frames In
today's turbulent markets, traditional trading strategies have
failed to provide protection from the rapid and violent changes
that have swung the Dow down 330 points one day, up 280 points the
next, and down 250 points at the open on the next. Fundamental
analysis based on company performance and financial predictions has
proven meaningless. Technical traders must now compete with
institutional trading programs utilizing supercomputers that
analyze and execute trades in millisecond time frames. So, how can
a private investor compete in this environment? In Day Trading
Options, expert option trader Jeff Augen shows you how to continue
to profit even in these chaotic times. You'll learn to structure
short-term trades that exploit well characterized price distortions
and anomalies. You'll discover a breakthrough technique for
utilizing volatility to identify the beginning and end of
short-lived trends. And, you'll gain the knowledge to use this
innovative technique to take advantage of financial news and
planned events, rather than being at their mercy. Abandon outdated
trading strategies and conventional "wisdom" Minimize your exposure
to market risk and increase your profits by trading in very brief
time frames and structuring positions that are direction neutral
Understand why your once-reliable technical analysis and charting
techniques are failing Explore new statistical evidence to discern
how new advances in institutional program trading affect the
private investor Discover new models for analyzing volatility in
different time frames Learn to evaluate option prices by comparing
overnight, intraday, and traditional measures of volatility Learn
to identify and exploit short-lived volatility changes Use a newly
