Description of Derivatives Diary |
After seven years at GlobalBank Thomas R. Jones leaves to strike out on his own as an independent fund manager. Gone is the security of his job to be replaced with the thrill of running his own business. Thomas believes that other fund managers do not maximise their performance with the best instruments available to them and, with a plan to use derivatives to react with more speed to the markets, Thomas R. Jones is ready to take on the world.
Thomas's first year is chronicled in this diary portrait together with the techniques that improved his performance. Read about the highs, the lows, the deals that worked, and listen to the stresses as he tries to beat the market, keep his wife happy, keep his investors happy and keep to his dietary regime.

Introduction: Thomas introduces himself with the help of his wife, Amanda.
Prologue Thomas breaks up from a successful career at GlobalBank to start his own independent fund management business.
1 - The first Board meeting in Thomas R Jones Investments Ltd. He revisits the old schoolbooks to refresh his understanding of derivatives (the Greeks and much more). Thomas learns what it takes to get started with derivatives trading.
2 -Thomas engages in a maths session to assess a number of different portfolio 'strategies'.
3 - Thomas moves on to focus on different options strategies and when to use them. Some in bullish markets, some in bearish market, some in undecided markets and some never. It may be better sometimes just to wait and see.
4 - Thomas takes a firm grip on risk, encounters the beast of beats, faces some domestic problems and does a fair bit of networking.
5 - Thomas puts his theory into practice. Will his Fund fly or crash? Will he master the market and reach cloud nine?
