4.3.1. Hedging Long Positions

Unlike speculative strategies, hedging strategies are generally made, not to increase income, but to reduce investment risk.

TESTIMONIALS

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)

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

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.

I passed the Series 50 on the first attempt thanks to Solomon's materials. Although the questions on the exam were much more difficult and complex in structure and format than the Solomon practice exams, the study materials & practice exams did enforce the concepts that the actual exam was testing. Thank you Solomon!!!

For the Series 6 exam, I used the Solomon 4-week study schedule. I really didn't do anything special, I just stuck to the study schedule each day. I used the app on my phone quite a bit for convenience.

The Solomon Live Class was timed perfectly one week prior to my exam, so it turned out to be somewhat of a review session, which is what I had hoped it would be. The concepts covered in the Live Class were helpful because McCallister broke them down into plain English and real-world examples.

The one place I varied from the study schedule was in the number of times I took the Exam Simulator. I took the Exam Simulator Practice Test 36 times and monitored my Pass Probability. Once I had my Pass Probability at 90%, I felt I was ready.

I passed first try! Three hours and forty-five minutes might seem like a long time, but it flew by. The Solomon Exam Prep conditioned me very well. Utilizing the chapter quizzes and practice exams really helped apply my learning, and also helped with time management. (Series 7)
