...By the way, I just wanted to give you a little success story and ask you a question about mentoring. Your book "Options Trading: The Hidden Reality", I read, 3 times in the 1st week and it really assisted me in seeing the whole picture. In July, I really started to apply the principles of the book in earnest. Since then I have increased my $19,000.00 to over $53,0000 today (November 27th). Before that, I struggled with many different strategies for over 3 years while losing over 50K.

First I need to point out that i know the author and worked with him on the floor of the Chicago Board of Trade during the late 1980's. Charles was a superb trader but is an even better teacher. Options can be daunting because of all the associated terminology. This book will give the motivated reader numerous tools for understanding and choosing strategies for using options to control risks and achieve trading objectives. I know of no book that better serves a user of options as opposed to those whose interest is theoretical or academic.

After several false starts, I started studying options seriously a few months ago and burned through a lot of books I had seen recommended in various place. Some were fairly good, some not, but I feel they all pale in comparison to this book. Charles brings clarity to this often obfuscated field, and for the fisrt time I feel I have 'grokked' options.

Parts of the book are not an easy read and have to be worked at before things click, but when they do you know you have really learned something new. Other parts of the book are fascinating stories of what can go wrong (very very wrong) when trading options. It's hard to imagine many authors spilling the beans on some of their really bad trades as honestly as Charles has. He also recounts some really brilliant trades he has made. The key is that the disasters were not in accord with 'the hidden reality' of options, whereas the victories were taking advantage of it.

"Having attended many options seimnars I can honestly say that your Webinars has been revolutionary to my options education. Unlike many other so called "options gurus" you do not try to attract people by promising them astronomical returns in fact you almost say the opposite...which is that if I am not prepared to put in the work to educate yourself about the pitfalls in options trading it can be a very expensive mistake and I should better forget about trading options altogether. This was the first time I had heard anyone say this to me.

The bottom lime is that as an ex-market maker and trader you have practiced what you preach......unlike many people out there who have never traded but are more than happy to sell people courses on how to trade. The way you examine, dissect and manage your risk in your trades has given my trading a significant edge.

The weekly webinars provide a great interactive platform to discuss and review new and old trades directly with you every week! I only wish I had found out about you sooner. In the past I have paid a lot more money to learn a lot less than what you have taught me.THANK YOU!

'Since I have been a derivatives trader, there is no one who has given me as many ideas about trading concepts as the author of Options: Perception and Deception. Besides teaching me new ways to scrutinize positions and their risk profiles, Charles Cottle taught me how to learn from the markets. This book provides the reader with with deep insights into options trading. It is exciting, inspiring, and far from being dry.'
Olaf Pilz, West Deutsche Landesbank, Dusseldorf


'Charles explains strategies and risk in ways that most traders today have never imagined. If you're managing an options position by deltas, gammas, vegas, and thetas alone, Charles shows that imperfections in the models hide certain risks. A trader must understand his or her position beyond the popular measures of risk'
Thomas R. Preston, thinkorswim


My goal this past year was to master and gain a deeper understanding of options. I am a practicing physician and a trader. It was a stroke of luck to come across the Risk Doctor, Charles Cottle, a true genius of options.

For those who are serious about perfecting their option trading skills, RD's Webinar series is like an exciting roller-coaster ride through the ups and downs of the options markets. I do not know of any other place that offers such a unique market ride.

From understanding the synthetic relationships inherent in options positions, to managing myself as a trader...Charles has been critical in my development.

Having a professional in my corner like Charles gave me the confidence to truly discover my trading personality and potential. I don't think I'd be trading for a hedge fund had I not worked with Charles. Don't find yourself asking Coulda Woulda Shoulda!
