Chapter Four

Simple Options and the Futures Market

Options in financial markets have been around for a long time. However, until relatively recently they were bought and sold exclusively over-the-counter. This changed soon after the futures exchanges expanded their commodities trading to include financial products. In 1973 the Chicago Board of Trade organized a new exchange for trading options on stocks. Called the Chicago Board Options Exchange, it standardized the terms of options contracts and assumed the credit risk of the option writer. Its success led to the development of a standardized options market o

I would heartily recommend Solomon for anyone studying for the Series 3. The materials are comprehensive, the bank of questions vast and the responsiveness to questions incredibly impressive and detailed. I passed first time and that in no small part is down to Solomon.

Great service, practice questions and mock exams were the key to passing. (Series 3)

I initially studied using a different exam prep course (The Securities Institute of America). I waited until I consistently passed the practice exams with a score over 90% before I took the actual exam and unfortunately I failed the exam on my first attempt. I discovered and purchased the Solomon Exam Prep and immediately noticed the studying material was more in depth. I waited until my practice exam score was consistently over 85% and I went to take the actual exam and passed. Thank you so much!! (Series 3)

I have to commend everyone at Solomon Exam Prep in getting me ready for and helping me pass my "Series 65" State Securities Law exam. I did not have a securities background nor did I work in the industry, and at 51 years old it was a challenge for me to go back to hitting the books. In addition to studying for the exam I was running my full time business and working 60+ hours a week. But with their help and support I passed on my first attempt.

Excellent exam preparation! Passed on my 1st attempt! SIE EXAM DO LOTS OF PRACTICE EXAMS, AND FLASHCARDS. I found the real exam question easier than the Solomon's ones. Thank you!

Gil Malamut, Prudential. New York, NY

When I first signed up for the SIE I was overwhelmed. The topic range was so broad. I began studying the study guide and listened to the audiobook. I also watched the video lectures. The information began to sink in. What really put me over the top was when I signed up for and attended the live class. Our instructor, JD Page, helped me to remember the most important pieces of information for the test. He not only gave us facts, but the reasons behind the facts. It really helped to cement the material into my mind. When I went in for the SIE Exam, I was able to move through the questions quickly and even had enough time to go through every question again. Thank you Solomon Test Prep!
