This is not a forum where you ask questions for just fun... this is where real money people will respond to you. Give them time, the USA folks are coming off a three-day weekend. I am sure the first bit of your questions will be answered very soon, like starting in 8 hours or so.
The only people who consider today a holiday work for the government, and based on how long it took me to renew my drivers license I'd say every day is a holiday for them!
I am considering and will start trading options. BUT I know real little about this concept.
So if some one or any one will give me a hand that will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

A lot. Once you understand simple strategies (Long calls/puts, verticals, condors) your best teacher will be Mr. Market, and he will happily take your tuition.
EDIT:
I'd like to add a footnote about TastyTrade because someone will recommend it. Their introduction videos are good but their strategy is to sell premium and only sell premium no matter what. This strategy is fine, but not really great for a beginner and requires specific market conditions to make it work for you. They will sell it to you as a panacea of profit and for that it would be useful for you to
read the story of optionsellers.com to learn how following this strategy (naked short positions) blindly is fraught with peril.
