Hi Fab,

There is some excellent discussion and material posted in this forum on that exact point, use the search tool to bring up the resources, use keywords and phrases that interest you. The ASX can send you a warrants booklet, good starting point: www.asx.com.au

All the best,
Rich

This is the link to the ASX Warrants page.

btw 2006 is the 15th anniversary of warrants trading on the ASX- the first ever warrant was a call on Boral.

If you are new to warrants, be careful of barrier warrants (I think also called turbo warrants) which disappear along with your money if the strike price is touched. If your not sure how barrier warrants work and how to value them, then stay away.

Actually that advice applies to any trading instrument.
