The idea of “mastering” options trading is actually unattainable since the markets are forever changing. There are some things that can be done to come as close as possible to mastery however. These include becoming familiar with all the basic options trading strategies, because without knowing what strategies are possible there’s no way to become a master. It also includes becoming familiar with all the different markets you can trade options on, and then choosing the one that is most suited to your trading philosophy. Finally, becoming a master of options trading, like becoming the master of anything, relies on constant study and practice.
