The spreadsheets are extremely useful.
Graphs update automatically when the strikes etc. are input. The spreadsheets can easily be tailored to include additional data. The profit-loss graphs clearly illustrate the option concepts for each spread strategy.

Best of the lot
I'm brand new to options, and I bought 4 different books on options trading, along with reading dozens of articles and taking a handful of video on the Internet from various brokers and sellers, and this book is the best of the lot. It's a quick read, but contains the basic definitions that you need to understand options fairly well, and it doesn't overdue it. Some books spend too many pages on intrinsic value and time decay. But what really sets this book apart is it gives you real-life advice all over it's pages, at the right level for a beginner. It's the only book where I feel comfortable enough to actually be doing the strategies it talks about. After reading the few pages on bull spreads, I was like, "Holy sh?t, I'm glad I didn't do a bull spread using any of the other book's or video's advice and play book. I would have been a kid in a candy store and probably lost money until I ran across the advice that this author gives you. Only drawback, for an American reader, is that the example scenarios are for an Indian options trading, but other than having to ignore the Indian money values, it's a great, great book for a beginner. Best of the lot.

This book ROCKS in clarity, simplicity and help, for an intimidating subject - Options.
This book is a very worthwhile resource - A quite small book, written in a personal manner, it accomplishes very well what it sets out to do - clarify, simplify and make information on trading options comfortably understandable. I'd say it's worth its weight in bitcoins . . . .Of the dozen or so books on my interests in option trading, which are at arms reach - this book by Roji A. is now on my short list of "go to" for clarity, simplified understanding and recall. Many of the other books I have, going back many years, now serve better as (heavy) paperweights, rather than useful sources of useable information.I really do think he has pulled off an important accomplishment. The material focuses on the basics, then builds using simple examples (of what's really going on with options trading), then cleverly and clearly walks through understandable details of about a half dozen popular options trading strategies. Given how confusing, complicated, convoluted etc., options trading can seem; to make the subject user friendly, clear, understandable as well as digestable - absolutely, hats off to this person. Warm and fuzzy - - thank you for this book.Shifu-T, Abacas.

Great intro to options
This was perfect. It was exactly what i was looking for. I was struggling with the terminology and general strategies and my internet searches didn't help with that. This book made all the terms crystal clear by using plain English and great examples and analogues. The strategies he described look easy enough to execute and we'll be a great reference. I also appreciate how short the book is. I read it on an afternoon. He definitely didn't add any fluff. Just easy to understand basics of options trading. Highly recommended!!!!

Good book for learning a few options strategies
Good book for learning a few options strategies. Gives case study for each strategy for Indian markets. Simple easy to understand language.I wish the author would have explained how to adjust your options strategies when you get the direction of movement wrong so that you can at least not incur a loss if not make a profit and still remain in the trade. Eg. Rolling down or rolling up one of your calls or puts in your strategy. Or converting a bull call spread into a bear call spread etc.But overall a nice read and worth buying.

I felt needed more examples and candlestick readings too
This book is very good for beginners. The trading strategies in this book can help you be a safe traders but this book is not for those you are ready to take risks. I read this book completely. But i felt i needed some more information. overall good for people who jas zero knowledge and not for the one who is already in option trading and looking for depths
