One of the best places to clearly understand the options. Dr. Shabbar Shahid has delivered a great course, that is engaging, easy to understand and super informative. The instructions are crystal clear, the text and diagrams are engaging and informative. Options trading is not an easy topic to understand and the instructor has done a wonderful job in making it easy for the students. Overall, a superb course I recommend for anyone interested in learning the basics and fundamentals of Options.

By Anonymized User on 10/25/2025

The course clearly delivered what it promised. The instructor’s teaching style makes the sessions engaging. The lectures are concise and easy to understand. A bit more coverage of hands-on trading would have made it even better.

By Akamatsu of Amba on 7/31/2025

Col (Dr) Shabbar Shahid has truly unlocked my understanding of options and the often-confusing Options Greeks. He explains complex concepts in a simple and engaging way, making it easy for anyone to grasp. I especially appreciated the graphic illustrations and real-world, down-to-earth examples used throughout the course. His teaching style is clear, methodical, and practical. Whether you're a beginner or looking to solidify your options knowledge, this course is a great investment. I highly recommend it to anyone serious about learning options trading.

By Jacob Rhoades on 5/20/2025

Wonderful course. The instructor is very knowledgeable and his explanations are clear and concise. I especially enjoyed the content about the Greeks, very well explained. Impressed that the instructor continued to add content as students asked questions. Also he is very quick to respond to questions, I asked one and got a detailed response in a very short time. Definitely recommend, and I am interested in exploring more of his courses in the future.

Excellent for learning the basics of Derivatives .

By Arindam Rakshit on 9/3/2024

Each lesson were very clear and the concepts were explained very well. Also, I would like to do a course for Intraday option buyer with practical illustrations, please suggest if any. Thank You to Sir for conducting such a good course!

By Ranjith L on 8/25/2024

The course is very progressive and detailed. Very clear with each and every topic to every tip of the contents and details. And the instructor is also nice and very dedicated to explaining all your doubts and concerns to the at most extent by reaching out to every single student. Rather than just seeing some patterns and making a trade this course makes sure that we are clear about every detail that are visible in the options trading.

By Ranjeet Singh on 1/16/2024

It has been a great experience, I have long wanted to know more about trading, investing and hedging, I have worked hard over the last few years in my spare time to get knowledge but never felt empowered with that information due to lack of structured learning, that is one of the thing i have found in all of your courses, of course, I still am not actually feeling ready to step in but it has been a very important milestone to be able to listen your lectures.

By Sagar Jambukar on 10/12/2022

The course was very well structured and minor details also were very well explained. It would have been nice to have some preliminary discussions on exiting the options trade. Further, when it came to Greeks it would have been nice to include a few graph plots to show how the Greeks moved relative to each other (overlap of plots / multiple Y-axis) as expiry day approaches or spot price changes over the days or even volatility changes. Nevertheless, I enjoyed the course and it definitely helped in filling quite a few knowledge gaps I had in understanding Options.

By nostromos 1 on 7/1/2022

Instructor prepares well in advance and is very organized, which saves me time. This is perhaps the best explanation of option basics. Instructor really cares about his students. Strong accent, but he enunciates so well that I could increase speed to 1.25 and still follow along. I also read along the accompanying script, though the script doesn't always translate correctly. I'm glad I took this course.
