Hello, I've been looking into expanding my knowledge on the stock market. Is there any books or websites best for learning? Also, should I focus more on the stock market in general before I expand on options trading?

So I did a 1 month recap on my options orders and I found a gain of $1,000. It may not be a lot, at least it's still a profit. Most of my options are Microsoft, Apple, Nvidia, and AMD. The last two weeks have been a loss, however I am still keeping an eye on what my losses and gains are. For...

I understand man, but at the same time I can make about a 2-3 thousand gain one week and then the next lose all profits. I'm actually curious on if I choose to use one stock for options, what type of economic information or news updates should I be attentive to for gains or losses?

I profited around 5,000 three weeks ago and the past couple weeks have been nothing but losses. I made about 1,000 profit on Tuesday and lost it all and more since then. I'm new and I would appreciate helpful feedback on how to read charts and when is the best time to place calls.
