AN INVESTORS INTRODUCTION TO TRADING OPTIONS
1 Options Can Provide Leverage Options typically move more than their underlying stocks and ETFs and because they control a right to buy or sell shares at a certain price If the desired value — known as the strike price — isn’t reached they will expire worthless Options usually cost less than the underlying stock or ETF |
Are options a good investment?
Options can be an important tool for retail investors and traders. They can yourself in specific companies and exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Options? Options convey the right to buy or sell an underlying stock or ETF at a certain price over a certain time period. Because they derive their price from something else, options are known as derivatives.
How do I choose the best stock options?
Choose options with adequate liquidity; open interest should be at least 100, preferably 500. Strike—Look for either the ATM or ITM (higher) strike above the current stock.
How do you calculate option premiums?
To calculate the total premium cost, traders need to take the price in cents times the multiplier. An option contract quoted at $1.20 would cost $120 to buy ($1.20 x 100). Option premiums are higher for high volatility stocks which reflects the chance of higher movement in the underlying over the course of the options life.
How do you sell a put option if a stock falls to zero?
A compromise is to consider it unlimited until the stock falls to zero—in other words, unlimited until the stock falls to zero. 1. Sell the put option with a strike price lower than the current stock price. Remember that for option contracts in the U.S., one contract is for 100 shares.

Proficiency Level
Each strategy is assigned a “value” in term of its suitability for different levels of trader. Each level is given an associated icon. Strategies suitable for novices Strategies suitable for intermediates Strategies suitable for advanced traders Strategies suitable for expert traders The allocations are defined according to a subjective view of com
Market Outlook
This is where we define whether a strategy is suitable to bullish, bearish, or direction neutral outlooks. Strategies suitable for bullish market conditions Strategies suitable for bearish market conditions Strategies suitable for sideways market conditions ptgmedia.pearsoncmg.com
Volatility
Volatility is one of the most important factors affecting option pricing and therefore option trading. You really should familiarize yourself with the concept, which, for-give the plug, is dealt with in my first book, Options Made Easy. Here, we define whether a strategy is suitable for trades anticipating high volatil-ity or low volatility in the
Reward
Following the risk scenarios described previously, the strategies also have potential reward scenarios, too. Just because a strategy has unlimited reward potential doesn’t mean that it’s nec-essarily a great strategy, and just because it may have capped reward doesn’t mean it’s necessarily a bad strategy. Strategies with capped reward Strategies wi
Strategy Type
Strategies can be used for income purposes (usually short-term) or to make capital gains. Many traders like the Covered Call because it’s suitable for novices and because it’s an income strategy that they can use every month. Income strategies Capital gain strategies ptgmedia.pearsoncmg.com
Strategy Legs
Each strategy contains different legs. Some have just one, and others have up to four. Each leg must be composed of any one of the basic four option strategies (long or short call or put) or a long or short stock position. Here’s how we identify them: Long stock Short stock Long call Short call Long put Short put All strategies contain real-life ex
Chapter by Chapter
In terms of structure, I’ve tried to make this book as easily navigable as possible, and much of that is solved by matrix-style tables of contents. Each chapter contains strategies that are commensurate with a specific style of options trading. Inevitably there’s some overlap between chapters for certain strate-gies, which we address in the appropr
Gamma:
Gamma is mathematically the second derivative of the underlying asset’s price, or the first derivative of Delta, and can be viewed in two ways: either as the acceleration of the option position relative to the underlying stock price, or as the odds of a change in probability of the position expiring ITM (in other words, the odds of a change in Delt
Theta:
Theta stands for the option position’s sensitivity to time decay. Long options (i.e., options that you have bought) have negative Theta, meaning that every day you own that option, time decay is eroding the Time Value portion of the option’s value. In other words, time decay is hurting the position of an option holder. When you short options, Theta
Vega:
Vega stands for the option position’s sensitivity to volatility. Options tend to increase in value when the underlying stock’s volatility increases. So, volatil-ity helps the owner of an option and hurts the writer of an option. Vega is pos-itive for long option positions and negative for short option positions. ptgmedia.pearsoncmg.com
Rho:
Rho stands for the option position’s sensitivity to interest rates. Apositive Rho means that higher interest rates are helping the position, and a negative Rho xiv eface Pr means that higher interest rates are hurting the position. Rho is the least important of all the Greeks as far as stock options are concerned. ■ x.y.5 Advantages and Disadvantag
