Archive for February, 2009

We just received word from our publisher that Option Trading in Your Spare Time will hit book shelves in July 2009, if all goes as planned.  We had hoped it would be released in February, but hope often unseats its rider. For those who have taken advantage of the savings offered at Amazon by pre-ordering, we appologize for the delay, but rest assured your patience will be rewarded.

We are so excited to share the possibilities that option trading has to offer. Whether you are are a stay-at-home mom, retiree, a woman wanting to suppliment her income by working from home (or anywhere else) in your spare time, or  if you are looking to broaden your knowledge of the stock market, perhaps to add insurance against loss in your other investments, option trading holds the key. After learning the basics, it truly can be done in a few minutes a day (any time during the day or night) from anywhere where you have access to a computer.

When you listen to the analyists on TV, the language and concepts can seem overwhelming, but, in truth, the techniques are no different than those required to learn to cook. Understanding and proficiency comes in layers, one technique builds upon another. First comes understanding basic terms (knowing the difference between the measurement of a tablespoon and teaspoon), learning how to select the best ingredients, understanding and practicing techniques like frying, boiling, sauteing and knowing when each method is appropriate to use, and, last and perhaps most important, to know when the dish is done. 

Option Traading in Your Space Time starts with the basics and build layers of understanding, step by step, until by the end of the book, you know and understand how to trade options, know how to set up a trading account, know how to chose stock candidates to trade, and know how to practice trading, allowing your confidence to grow until you are ready for the real thing.   

Once you begin reading the book and become involved, you have a community of like-minded women who are eager to share their experiences and understanding to help you reach financial independence. Knowing where many women succeed in reaching their goals, we can all succeed.

For those who are new to option trading and Women Option Traders, we look forward to meeting and welcoming you to our Inner Circle.
