Key takeaways

  • This record is the June 2008 edition.
  • Hedging and trade size sit beside the volatility math.
  • A volatility forecast is not a guaranteed options result.
Wiley dates ISBN 978-0-470-18199-7 to June 2008, 224 pages. The product includes companion website material from that edition. Sinclair covers option pricing, volatility forecasts, hedging, money management, and the biases that show up when a trader reviews a volatility book. This is not the later Sinclair options book, and it is not a current software manual. The spreadsheets of 2008 are teaching tools. A forecast in the text is the author's method, not a claim that implied volatility will do what the reader expects. Read it when the question is how a volatility trader defines the trade. Do not read it as a hedge that removes risk.
