STOCKS OPTIONS TRADER

Options trading is a form of derivatives trading where contracts are bought and sold to gain a right, but not an obligation, to buy or sell an underlying asset at a predetermined price on a specific date. It's a popular strategy to hedge against risk and can also be used for speculation. Options trading requires a solid understanding of the market and associated risks. It can be a powerful tool for investors but also carries significant risks.
