About the Author
Charles M. Cottle while both education and development of new strategies are Charles passion, his expertise is the result of over 25 years involvement in all aspects of option trading. Beginning his career as a Pit Trader he has traded at a variety of exchanges including the Chicago Board of Trade, the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, and the Chicago Board Options Exchange. His trading expertise led to an involvement in training where he was instrumental in the development of Trade$tar II, an options market simulator. He trained market makers, brokers and programmers in the USA and Europe when exchange based electronic trading was in its infancy. Charles also developed software for Risk Analysis.
Book Synopsis
“Options Trading: The Hidden Reality” is written from the market maker perspective and is an expanded revision of "Options: Perception and Deception" and "Coulda Woulda Shoulda". O:PD was published by McGraw Hill in Hardback and I obtained the rights back to self publish the derivative CWS to give away at my brokerage firm from 2001 to 2003. Because they are out of print, O:PD sells from for $300 or more while CWS has fetched over $100 where rare books are sold. "Options Trading: The Hidden Reality" not only printed in color has 100 more pages and features more dissection illustrations on popular wingspread (stretched-out condors, Slingshot Hedges and skip-strike-flies) and calendarized spread (double diagonals, straddle strangle swaps and double calendars) configurations. I think what made OP:D in such demand were the 3D graphics and the Skew Library. They are both brought back in full color along with the appendix proving Chapter 2's Options Metamorphosis. Color has always been key to helping my students understand the esoteric nuances of options and I was very pleasantly surprised at how well the color printing came out.

Raising the Consciousness with Advanced Options Education Charles M Cottle brings to the world a unique approach to options education (targeted towards retail traders/investors/hedgers, market makers, hedgefunds, brokers, account reps, fund managers, industry regulators, exchange staff, sales people, etc.). His content is not really available anywhere else. The purpose of his education is to enhance the productivity of existing traders, of course, but the bigger picture is to engage the dormant, otherwise out-of-the-options-gameinvestors, who own stock and really need options. Unlike many other options educators Cottle does not promise OEpie in the sky returns¹. Instead, he empowers his students to tap into their hidden potential and teaches them to maneuver comfortably through what they currently view to be an extremely volatile and hostile environment. Cottle has written and published three books on option trading. (...)
