OptiOn Fundamentals
|
||||
This chapter introduces what an option is and how to visualize options in
|
||||
an intelligent way while hinting at the great flexibility and power a sensible
|
||||
use of options gives an investor. It is split into three sections:
|
||||
1. Option Overview: Characteristics, everyday options, and a brief
|
||||
option history.
|
||||
2. Option Directionality: An investigation of similarities and differ -
|
||||
ences between stocks and options. This section also contains an
|
||||
introduction to the unique way that this book visualizes options
|
||||
and to the inescapable jargon used in the options world and a bit
|
||||
of intelligent option investor–specific jargon as well.
|
||||
3. Option Flexibility: An explanation of why options are much more
|
||||
investor-friendly than stocks, as well as examples of the handful of
|
||||
strategies an intelligent option investor uses most often.
|
||||
Even those of you who know something about options should at the
|
||||
very least read the last section. Y ou will find that the intelligent option
|
||||
investor makes very close to zero use of the typical hockey-stick diagrams
|
||||
shown in other books. Instead, this book uses the concept of a range of
|
||||
exposure. The rest of the book—discussing option pricing, corporate
|
||||
valuation, and option strategies—builds on this range-of-exposure concept,
|
||||
so skipping it is likely to lead to confusion later.
|
||||
This chapter is an important first step in being an intelligent option
|
||||
investor. Someone who knows how options work does not qualify as be-
|
||||
ing an intelligent option investor, but certainly, one cannot become an
