Options Trading Tutorial

How do forex options affect forex market? Anybody can tell me how forex options affect forex market? Do they actually affect the market only when they are exercised? Does an exercise of a forex option occur at the same time as a sell-off of the option? (My understanding is that when an option expires, you have to exercise it then sell it to make profit) OK, for more clarification, my understanding is that, when an option is exercised, you open a position at the stated price. But I don't know if the opened position has to be closed immediately. Correct me if I am wrong.

What is the minimum capital needed for forex, options and futures trading ? Free and recommended simulators ? Hello guys, I'm interested in learning more about forex, options and futures trading. I heard that there are mini or micro account that can go as little as US$ 200 or 300 dollar. Is it true ? Also, any recommendations for free forex, options and futures trading simulators ? I know that some websites provide this service but usually the virtual capital is too high (10K or up), and I want to set the initial capital to small amount like US$ 300 or 500. If possible, is there any recommendations for courses/books ? I'm not aiming for those "fancy" amount of income, several thousand/month is OK. Of course I'm not looking for courses that cost hundreds or thousands of dollars... Thanks for the input. I agree that it's a bit too much to expect thousands of returns for such a small amount of capital. But, if I expect my capital which is around 300 or 500 to be doubled by around 1-2 month. Doesn't is sound possible ???? My plan is actually something like this : The capital will be 300 or 500. The goal is to double the capital by around 1 - 2 mounth(s). When I have more money, I will buy more lots... To make it safer, every time I manage to double the previous capital, I will do one more time before I plan to use more capital to trade. It will be something like this (US$500 capital) : 500 - 1000 - 1000 (don't use for trading) - 2000 - 2000(don't use for trading) - 4000 and so on ... Now the problem is to find the system that are able to do this... Any recommendations ? I personally distrust systems that cost hundreds or thousands or dollars. There are simply too many scams...

Why are there no standardized forex options? Hi, Its hard to find a broker that offers forex options. The one I know is Saxobank. When I tried the demo account, it lets you choose the exact strike price (5 pip increments) and the expiry date, day by day. They are way to customized and the pip spread is always 15 pips on most of them. This tells me one thing, saxo bank is trading against their clients, so its in their interest to manipuate the spread and win when client loses. Why are there no standardized options for forex like they have with stock options (expiry month, fixed strikes) they would be SO MUCH more liquid than those phony currency futures options. Or correct me if Im wrong, do they exist?

In your opinion what is a better way to trade currencies for a living; spot-forex or currency options? Also...? I am 18 years old and I have been practicing spot-forex trading for several months now with FX Club and I am quite good at it and have learned a lot about currency trading from my demo account and some books and internet article sites on currency & options trading. Its become my passion actually. I also know something that actually is a secret to FX trading success; the trends are usually long term, lasting from several months to several years meaning you are best to trade for the long term on currency pairs to enjoy the ride of making money. You can't do this with spot-FX because you are trading on margin and if a trading position is left open too long, you will be wiped out within so long. What I would like to know is if currency options trading is a good way to trade currency by simple vanilla call & put options as I know that spot-FX is essentially a mugs game? Also is there anybody out there who trades currency options for a living at all? Also, what is an easy to use currency options trading brokerage that can be used by a UK based investor? Please help advise. Thanks. P.S. Sorry my question is too long.

Stock options or forex trading, which is better? In terms of profit? In terms of safety?

Shares, commodities, options, emini's, forex? For many years I have wanted to start investing but education is holding me back. There is soooo much information available that it's difficult to sift the chaff from the grain and I get bogged down with a brain overload. I could do a course like Lifestyle trader which has components on all these areas but for $11,000 before you even place a trade, it seems incredibly steep, especially with no iron clad promise of success. I'd get a better warranty on a new kettle. So, my question requires a lot of thought from those who will answer. If you were to design a course educating rank newbies in shares, commodities, options, emini's and forex, where would you begin and how would you build on that information-references, websites, books etc. Remember you learn addition and subtraction before vectors and matrices so it's a slow build not sink or swim.

Do currency options work differently than stock options? I've traded options before with US stocks and I understand that if I buy 1 contract for 100 shares priced at $.50 they are going to charge me $50 plus commission. Is that basically the same for forex? For example, I was looking at options on CME for EUR. One contract covers 125,000 of Euros. If I buy one contract at a price of .0010 do they charge my account $125 plus commission? Is that the most that I can lose on that position or am I somehow leveraged 50:1 like a regular forex trade and I can lose a lot more than $125?

What's with the sudden explosion in forex trading? It seems to me I can't visit a finance related site without seeing something about forex trading to the point that I see ads for $250 "mini accounts." It seems to me that trading currencies is exceedingly risky and only for the very sophisticated investor. I trade in options but I moved into that from equity investing. At least in that area I can still look at fundamental corporate performance and detailed economic forecasts to research my options activity. In the world of currencies, however, no such audited, published information exists. While I am sure there are huge amounts of money to be made, it seems as though the average investor has less chance of being successful in the long term with forex than even options trading. Are people just being drawn in to forex like all the late night "Flip this house" infomercials?
