Books Jaime Swartz Loves
We asked Jaime if she had any recommendations for books that would explain her job. Options trading is pretty complex, and as Jaime told us, requires intense focus and quick decision-making. For a primer on options trading, check out these books.
Options, Futures, and Other Derivatives by John C. Hull
Options for the Beginner and Beyond by W. Edward Olmstead
Option Volatility and Pricing by Sheldon Natenberg
Jaime Swartz was a competitive kid, in school and on the volleyball court. She went on to major in applied math at Northwestern. At a college career fair, Jaime read a trading job description and says that, "every single bullet point was a description of me." Being a trader lets her be competitive and use math, and draw on her background as an athlete. And she's still an avid volleyball player.
