IONOPTIONS.COM is where Ron Ianieri teaches Option Theory and Trading.

It doesn't get any better than this.

When used correctly, options can greatly enhance your profits. The leverage they provide allows small accounts to trade like big ones, without the normally associated risks. And, in times of financial turmoil, options can keep you from incurring catastrophic losses.

There are many ways in which options can both protect your portfolio and help you profit - but in order to take advantage of these opportunities, you must learn how to properly use options in your investment endeavors.

Ron Ianieri has probably trained more options floor traders and market makers than anyone else on the planet.

As a former market maker for DELL Computer Options on the Philadelphia Exchange, in my opinion, you couldn't get a better authority to study under.

For instance, many option instructors teach options completely backwards. They treat option theory as an 'advanced topic' while the strategies based on that theory are taught first. These topics should be taught the other way around. Logically, option theory should be, and needs to be, first in instruction... before the strategies.

IONOPTIONS.COM understands option theory is the foundation upon which strategies should be built. Those who do not fully understand the theory first never fully understand options. If you do not fully understand options, then you cannot truely understand the strategies based on options. And those who do not understand their positions in all market situations are not around for too long.

The topics of option theory are the cornerstones, the foundations of understanding an option. When investors understand options, they are able to select the optimal strategy on a consistent basis and to construct that strategy in the most cost-efficient way. Understanding options helps when things do not go the way you thought they would. Remember, we all have losing trades from time to time. Understanding options allows you to be in a position to cut losses quickly. Understanding will let you know where your risks are before you put on the trade and will give you the tools to counter those risks.

Professional traders understand 'equivalent positions', otherwise known as 'synthetics'. They know how to use a call to construct a put or vice versa. Do you?

What are the 'Greeks'? The Greeks are measures of an option's sensitivity to certain output variables of an option pricing model. As such, they can tell you if an option you are considering will work for the particular strategy you are considering. Isn't that worth knowing before you blindly commit your capital to a trade?

IONOPTIONS.COM understands the 'Greeks' will guide you to the best option like a laser guided missle.
