The Void

I would like to leave a 5-star review for the Udemy instructor. I took his course on options trading and was highly impressed with his teaching style. This was the sixth course I completed from this instructor. After taking the course, I gained a clear overall idea of the subject matter. Now, I am ready to start the next course in the series.

amazing course. I liked it very much. The concepts have been very nicely explained in a very simple manner which any person without any financial knowledge can understand provided all lessons are watched in sequence without skipping the initial basic lessons. And I must say, this course is truly conceptual in nature and valid across the globe. I have been in Germany, Luxembourg, and France and I find the teachings are as much applicable here as may be in the instructor's own country. I would strongly recommend it to learners.

The course was very well structured and minor details also were very well explained. It would have been nice to have some preliminary discussions on exiting the options trade. Further, when it came to Greeks it would have been nice to include a few graph plots to show how the Greeks moved relative to each other (overlap of plots / multiple Y-axis) as expiry day approaches or spot price changes over the days or even volatility changes. Nevertheless, I enjoyed the course and it definitely helped in filling quite a few knowledge gaps I had in understanding Options.
