“Options trading is a zero-sum game, why should I join…”

Feedback in:

Hi,

I am considering to purchase the Essentials course but I have the following doubts: I am located in Spain, and the number of available ETFs are much less in Europe than in USA. Is the ETF module of your course still worthed it? Since options trading is a zero-sum game, why should I join it? (everybody will have more experience than me).

Thanks.
