Join John Jagerson, renowned author and forex trader, as he shares his deep insight into the forex market and explores how you can control risk and make profits using FX options strategies. John will show you how to take advantage of this important trading instrument to speculate on market volatility instead of market direction and how to hedge against a specific FX trade's risk without having to resort to a stop loss that could lead to a whipsaw. Because this kind of trading has only become available to most traders recently, very few people are aware of the amazing opportunity to use options.

While Forex trading offers fantastic benefits for leverage or gearing, income opportunities and massive liquidity, it also has some serious disadvantages. It can be very difficult to create an effective hedge in a volatile FX market and the market's inherent volatility makes whipsaws a common occurrence. Forex options can be used to reduce or eliminate these problems. Come find out why institutional and retail traders are using options to speculate, control risk and make income in the FX market.
