Mastering the Market

di Hanley Thomas (Autore)

Hanley Thomas, 2026

Whether you have never traded a derivative in your life or you already dabble in options and want to understand what you are actually doing — this book will take you from first principles to professional-level understanding in a single volume. Written by a veteran NYSE broker with two decades of floor experience, Mastering the Market covers every major class of derivative instrument — call and put options, futures contracts, forward agreements, interest rate and credit default swaps, warrants, convertible bonds, CFDs, and exotic options — with real worked examples using Apple, Tesla, Amazon, Nvidia, and Microsoft. But this book goes further than most derivatives guides dare to. It covers the six cognitive biases that cause most retail traders to lose money, and gives you a systematic framework to counter them. It explains market microstructure — the order book, bid-ask spreads, dark pools, and who is actually on the other side of your trade. It teaches you to read both price charts and company financials, and shows you how professional trading desks manage portfolio-level risk dynamically, not just position by position. Every chapter includes practical examples, worked scenarios, and reference tables you will return to again and again. The glossary alone covers over 70 essential terms. By the time you finish this book, you will understand not just what derivatives are — but how to use them.
