Ryan,

If you are interested in learning options, I suggest you sign up for TradeKing.com, ThinkorSwim.com and TradeMonster.com. All these brokers have all kinds of free lessons on options. They are pretty good.

Also, go into CBOE.com and you can get a lot of free webinars.

Ultimately, you need to trade for a while to get a feel on how it works. Technically, these webinars provide you a foundation but you need to learn it practically by paper trading yourself.
