Options Trading

While unfolding the topic of options trading, we first need to have a clear understanding of what the term 'options' signify. Options to an investor is an investment option very much like mutual funds, stocks and bonds but at the very same time options differ from the other types of securities listed above in being a bit more complex than these. Options can be defined as a contract that gives the owner the right to buy or sell an asset at a specific price on or before a specific date. It is called options because the buyer has the right but not the obligation to trade his stocks and thus enjoys the advantage of limited risks but unlimited profit potential.
