Yes. Do the doughjo at dough.com.

It's free, will take you about 20 hours and is a very good intro to beginner strategic options trading.

If I were you, I would do that free one first to get an idea and learn the terminology. Learning the terminology of options trading is half the battle.

There are a lot of predatory vendors in the marketplace, and it is very easy to waste a lot of money on vendors. Instead of spending money on vendors, spend it on commissions.

I think it is better to do the free course, get small options account and start trading immediately, restricting yourself to 1-lot trades only.

Plan to lose some money but try to learn as much as possible from each 1-lot trade.

Give yourself a goal of doing 100 trades.

Once you have your first 100 trades under your belt you will understand a lot better whether you want to spend money on a vendor.

As for me personally, since I am only interested in Volatility trading, I am very much interested in Options Pit.

This is not a recommendation, because I have not used their service.

Options Pit's Mark Sebastian is an expert on VIX options and it sounds like they have a systematic approach to trading the VIX that I would like to learn more about.

As a beginner options trader your basic neutral trade is the iron condor.

If you go up and do a long march through

and watch everything, you will understand many things.

Yer welcome.

Are you planning to trade options on the Shanghai exchange or some other Chinese exchange?
