Larry McMillan's option bibles

I got the his 2 books "Options As Strategic Investment" and "McMillan On Options". Is it absolutely necessary to read them cover to cover or should I use them like a dictionary to look up only the strategies than interest me? Thanks!

 

are you required to take a test at the end?

 

yes

 

While you are at it, you can read Natenberg's bible as well.
After you have done all three, go pick up optioncoach's handbook. It is a must for advanced traders.

 

Yes, I have read "Options as a Strategic Investment" and so should you.....!

 

Depending on how well versed you already are in options I found the workbook that goes with "options as a strategic inv" which covers the 1st 25 chapters very helpful. Definitely the 1st 25 chapters then the rest later on. Natenberg's was more helpful the second time around when I understood a little more.

 

After you've read that fluff, you'll have to read Cottle's books.
