Options offer an investor the right but not the obligation to buy or sell a security at a set price.
Options thus can protect share ownership from under-performing and can make money when market conditions are extreme.
To invest in options, you must, however, take time to learn about them. Know the difference between a call and a put, strike price and all the rest of arcane terms.
There is no quick options course. Take your time because of the complex nature of this aspect of the securities business.
Do not attempt to get involved unless you learn the subject, both academically and in practice. Therefore, initially run through fantasy dry-runs with no funds, just to see how you would have done with real money. Then use your own capital. (See the Earl J.
