Hi Electra: This is what I have done.I have read a lot books on options,started trading options,watched and listened to people who trade options,and try to come up with a trading plan that is unique to me. I am still working on that part.That was a long sentence.The internet is great as you know to get information from a lot of sources on many subjects including options on stocks and commodities.SI is one source.Go to any of the web browsers, and search under stock and commodities options.You will get a ton of reference stuff.Ask other people at SI like you are asking me.The fact you are here at SI is a great start to learn about options. Good luck in your quest.

Options education.

CBOE site has an excellent educational section that covers basics and more advanced strategies. Check it out at

cboe.com

The site has links and a list of books that are helpful. One that I used to learn a is called "Getting Started In Options" by Michael C. Thomsett. Good for some basics, well written, and very easy to understand.

Finally, check out the Ameritrade site for some downloadable options trading game called Darwin, survival of the fittest. Haven't played but I hear it's a good teacher.

Good luck,
