I’m going to be completely honest with you. I’ve always found options the way they’re traditionally taught to be utterly confusing — and dare I say irrational. So, I’ve never really bothered. I know the basic Greeks and even then, I’m a little shaky.
So, it raises the obvious question: if I’m not intimately familiar with the Greeks (and I’m not because I have to look them up to know what others are talking about), why do I write so much about options? The answer: my methodology, which is a discrete-event analysis based on the work of Russian mathematician Andrey Markov, seeks to overcome the epistemological flaws of traditional western methodologies.
