The Options Guide

Understand options, explore strategies, and see how an example position behaves as the underlying price changes.

The Options Guide brings its learning library and interactive calculators to iPhone and iPad. Start with the basics, study a strategy, then try its example in a payoff calculator.

LEARN AT YOUR OWN PACE Browse 774 bundled articles covering options, futures and related markets. Follow an eight-lesson foundation, search the guide, bookmark useful articles, and keep track of completed lessons. The reading library works offline.

EXPLORE 87 STRATEGIES Browse strategies by bullish, bearish or neutral outlook. Filter by risk, read explanations and study payoff diagrams. Move directly from a strategy article into its calculator example.

MAKE EXAMPLES YOUR OWN Adjust option legs, premiums, strikes, position size and fees. Inspect modeled profit and loss, maximum risk and reward, and break-even values where defined. Save scenarios on your device and return to them later.

TOOLS FOR UNDERSTANDING Estimate theoretical option prices and Greeks, or compare position size with a risk budget. Enter numbers and arithmetic using the built-in calculator keypad. Tools marked Website open separately and require an internet connection.

BUILT FOR READING Choose light or dark appearance, enlarge article text, explore tables and diagrams, and share article links. No account is required. Your bookmarks, reading progress and saved scenarios stay on your device.
