The Concept:

THE RISK OF OPTIONS TO PROMINENCE

Options are hardly a new instrument.  Puts and calls were long traded on the alleys of Pine Street to which York Stock Exchange crowd relegated such trading.  Also Callable bonds have a long history; and that ubiquitous instrument, the home mortgage, has traditionally incorporated a prepay without penalty.

 

Nonetheless, options gained wide attention and also became the subject of relentless analysis only after developments brought them to the fore.  One was the creation in 1973 of the CBOE to trade listed options on equities.  Events have come full circle.  Single Stock Futures have regained its prominence in the Asian region.  Understanding options will give all players a definite competitive advantage.

 

Options come into two flavors, puts and calls; and to every option transaction, there are two parties, a buyer and a seller, usually referred to as the holder and the writer, respectively.  The holder of a call option has the right to buy the Underlier ( a commodity, a financial instrument, or the notional principal on a rate agreement), from the counterparty (the writer) at a specified price (the strike price) until the end of a specified period (the expiration date).'  In contrast, the writer of a call option has the contingent obligation to sell the Underlier of the option to the counterparty at the strike price until the expiration date.

 

Puts work the other way round from calls.  The holder of a put has the right to sell to the counterparty, whereas the writer of a put has the contingent obligation to buy the Underlier from the counterparty.  

 

Note that a put is not somehow the reverse of a call.  Puts and calls are two distinct instruments, each of which may be brought or sold.  Thus, whereas futures quotes just one price per instrument per period, options quotes give-for each strike price and for each expiration date traded-two prices: one for the relevant put, one for the relevant call.

 

This one day appreciation program is designed with one objective - to dispel the myths surrounding options using plan uncomplicated language.
