The reality: Options alone can be 25-30% of your questions. If you're not comfortable with max gain/loss/breakeven calculations, you're not ready.
The strategy: Master calculations first. The formula sheet exists for a reason -- these need to be automatic. Then layer in the conceptual stuff.
Time investment: Plan for 100-150 hours over 8-10 weeks. Prioritize options content (Chapters 9-10).
