1. Please continue your options education. Here is a good site for learning safe methods of trading options: http://www.safe-options-trading-income.com/
2. Go to http://www.optionetics.com. They have plenty of free stuff about options on the site as well as courses you can pay for. Their is no need to buy anything, the free information is more than enough for most. Check out http://followmytrades.viviti.com to see the mindset of how a trader places his options trades. You will follow not only what is traded but will also see the reasoning behind the trades. You will see both the successes and failures all in front of you daily. Find sites where you can get into the mind of an actual trader and where you can ask questions of them. That will help more than most of the $1,000+ courses sold out their.
3. To be successful at trading options in the stock market, you'll need practice. The best way to get practice is through paper trading, that's where you follow a stock and pretend you are actually putting trades in and then taking them out, hopefully for a profit. You can also find books on the subject, like on amazon or barnes and noble. You'll need a good foundation on the basics. There are also different strategies when it comes to trading options so you'll need to learn those first as well. For more advanced ways on how to trade options, there are sites that offer guidance. The advantage with these sites is that they will take you beyond the basics and offer you a better chance at higher returns on your trades. I've listed some sites below that you can check out, they are for information purposes only and not a recommendation. However, you will learn a little more than what you can get from reading books. http://www.stockoptiontradingsystems.com http://optionsexpress.stockoptiontradingsystems.com http://tradeking.stockoptiontradingsystems.com I think if you start your learning this way, you will be able to succeed in trading options. Others have done it so there's no reason why you can't learn how to do it too. Hope that helps and good luck!
