Options trading may sound risky or complex for beginner investors, and so they often stay away. Some basic strategies using options, can help a novice investor protect their downside and hedge market risk. Options trading is meant to provide a process that defines the selling and buying of options by a trader. The options trading strategies are what make up the options trading. There are various ways that a trader can use the options trading strategies to their advantage. Options trading is a great way to increase your returns as an investor. You will be able to generate profits when the market goes up or when it goes down. However, with so many options trading strategies on offer, you may find it difficult to know which one to choose. This post is showing ideas of the different options strategies and help you choose the right one based on your views. What Are Options Strategies? Options are one of the most flexible and powerful way for investing in the stock markets. Investors can utilize stocks in many ways, including buying and holding onto them to long-term appreciation in value or short-term trading to make a quick buck. However, the stock market is huge, and investors can utilize many sophisticated strategies. The first complex strategy is called a call option. Call options are contracts that enable the holder to purchase a stock or other asset at a specific price within a specific time frame. If the price goes above the strike price, the owner can buy the stock at a lower price and then sell it at a higher price. This can result in a great return, but a loss is possible if the stock doesn't move or move in opposite direction. Types of Options Strategies There are four ways to trade options strategies : call, put, spread, and straddle. First, let's start with the call and put. A call is a contract that gives the owner the right to buy a stock at a specific price on or before the option's expiration date. On the other hand, a put is a contract that gives the owner the right to sell a stock at a specific price on or before the option's expiration date. Spreads and straddles are both strategies used to manage risk. A spread is created by buying the same type of option with the same expiration date but with a different strike price. The strike price is the underlying stock price when the option is exercised. A straddle is created by buying an option with a lower strike price and an option with a higher strike price with the same expiration date. Pros and Cons of Options Strategies Just like selecting a stock to trade or invest in, selecting an options strategy can be a difficult task with risks and potential payouts. The pros and cons of options strategies help you decide which is best for your investing style. Pros: - Lower investment costs​ - Stock options can be used as a way to hedge your investment or portfolio risk Cons: - High risks and losses can occur if you don't research your options strategy​ - Options can only be exercised at the expiration date​ Conclusion Traders can use Options strategies to take advantage of both rising and falling prices of stocks. We hope you have gained a deep understanding of what options strategies are this post. See you all next week. 🙂 RK_Charts Most investors treat trading as a hobby because they have a full-time job doing something else.

FIIs are slowly exiting Long positions and retail participants are buy calls and puts in expectations of big movements. For any underlying to move, we need strong volumes, which is missing. These are signs of distribution happening. In our previous post also we had highlighted a range bound movement scenario for markets. And that is precisely what we are seeing. Nifty yo-yoing between 13400-13600. If blue line is taken out, we might see another move towards 13400 - 13380 level.
