Understanding Basic Options• First we need to understand what an option instrument is just like

derivatives futures, options too is an derivative product where the buyer holds a right to execute option of either buying or selling of shares or another underlying at a certain pre-determined price (also known as the strike price) during a pre-determined time period.

• The 2 types of Options are Call Options i.e. the Right to Buy and Put Options i.e. the Right to Sell.

• A Call option gives buyer an option to “BUY” underlying asset at an agreed upon price with a expiry date on this contract. Likewise Put gives buyer an option to “SELL” at agree upon price with a expiry date on this contract. Hence, Call buyer would want prices of the underlying to go up and put buyers would like to see prices of underlying falling.
