Option Trading

96
In trading, an option is a contract that gives the holder the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell an underlying asset (like a stock) at a specified price (the strike price) by a certain date (the expiration date). This right is purchased for a premium, and the holder can choose to exercise the option, sell it before expiration, or let it expire worthless.
