Options Trading 101 - How to Sell a Call Option on Etrade? - How to Trade Derivatives?



I bought 100 shares of SNAP yesterday. In this video I sold 1 call option contract on SNAP with a strike of $23 and an expiration of Oct 20, 2017. That means I sold someone the right to buy SNAP from me for $23 anytime on or before Oct 20, 2017. If SNAP stock price never hits $23 by Oct 20, 2017 then the person who bought the call option from me would never exercise their right. If that happened then I collect the $190 in premium and hold on to my stock. If the price of the stock went to $24 then I would be forced to sell it at $23 (loss of $100) but I would still make money because I collected the $190 premium. I only lose money if the stock goes past $25 because the option would be exercised and my premium of $190 would be less than my loss on the stock sale. buying a call option gives an investor the right, but not the obligation, to buy a stock, at a specified price within a specific time period. selling a call option gives someone the right to buy stock from you at a specified price within a specific time period. this means you may be forced to sell stock to someone. buying a put option gives an investor the right, but not the obligation, to sell a stock, at a specified price within a specified time period. selling a put option gives someone the option to sell stock to you at a specified price within a specified time period. this means you may be forced to buy stock from someone. if you think a stock will go up you can: (i) buy the stock, (ii) buy a call option or (iii) sell a put option. if you think a stock will go down you can: (i) sell the stock if you own it, (ii) sell a call option or (iii) buy a put option. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Win money every Tuesday and Friday.
