Understanding Options Trading

The financial market can generate great gains and losses, so understanding options trading is essential for any investor. Recent financial reports indicate that the majority of contracts on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange expired without posting a gain for the option buyer. This data is surprising proof of the lack of understanding of this kind of investing. At Optioneer, we teach investors of all levels how to manage the risk of these contracts while aiming for a greater premium.

This type of trading involves the sale and purchase of contracts that allow the holder to buy an underlying security at a pre-determined price. This value is known as the strike price. The Optioneer methodology involves selling and holding index options with strike prices that are outside of market values. This means that when the contract expires, the entire premium is retained by the seller.

The risk of loss in trading commodity futures and options can be substantial. Before trading, you should carefully consider your financial position to determine if futures trading is appropriate. When trading futures and/or options, it is possible to lose the full balance of your account. It is also possible to lose more than your initial deposit when trading futures and/or granting/writing options. As a result, selling/writing "uncovered" options exposes the seller/writer to the possibility of margin calls and virtually unlimited risk. All funds committed should be purely risk capital. Past performance is no guarantee of future trading results.
