4.3.1. Hedging Long Positions

Unlike speculative strategies, hedging strategies are generally made, not to increase income, but to reduce investment risk.

Great service, practice questions and mock exams were the key to passing. (Series 3)

Darragh Lenihan, Global Commodities Holdings Limited. Singapore

I would heartily recommend Solomon for anyone studying for the Series 3. The materials are comprehensive, the bank of questions vast and the responsiveness to questions incredibly impressive and detailed. I passed first time and that in no small part is down to Solomon.

David Woolfenden Totem London

I initially studied using a different exam prep course (The Securities Institute of America). I waited until I consistently passed the practice exams with a score over 90% before I took the actual exam and unfortunately I failed the exam on my first attempt. I discovered and purchased the Solomon Exam Prep and immediately noticed the studying material was more in depth. I waited until my practice exam score was consistently over 85% and I went to take the actual exam and passed. Thank you so much!! (Series 3)

Joshua Turner, J.D. Turner Capital, LLC, Baltimore, MD

I utilized a competitor's product and failed the first time I took the Series 53. It wasn't from the lack of studying. After researching what other courses to buy, I luckily found Solomon. The exam material was up to date and the practice exams were much more challenging than the other program. I would highly recommend Solomon and plan on utilizing them if I should have to take another exam. Thank you.

Your Series 79 book was great and your practice questions were spot-on. I passed the first time. Thanks!

I passed the Series 79 (on my first attempt) with help from Solomon Exam Prep. I found the study book and online exams to be quite helpful, and would recommend Solomon as a study resource for anyone.
