Strategy Sullllllary
|
||||
Except for arbitrage strategies and tax strategies, the strategies we have described
|
||||
deal with risk of market movement. It is therefore often convenient to summarize
|
||||
option strategies by their risk and reward characteristics and by their market out
|
||||
look-bullish, bearish, or neutral. Table A-1 lists all the risk strategies that were dis
|
||||
cussed and gives a general classification of their risks and rewards. If a strategist has
|
||||
a definite attitude about the market's outlook or about his own willingness to accept
|
||||
risks, he can scan Table A-1 and select the strategies that most closely resemble his
|
||||
thinking. The number in parentheses after the strategy name indicates the chapter in
|
||||
which the strategy was discussed.
|
||||
Table A-1 gives a broad classification of the various risk and reward potentials
|
||||
of the strategies. For example, a bullish call calendar spread does not actually have
|
||||
unlimited profit potential unless its near-tenn call expires worthless. In fact, all cal
|
||||
endar spread or diagonal spread positions have limited profit potential at best until
|
||||
the near-term options expire.
|
||||
Also, the definition of limited risk can vary widely. Some strategies do have a
|
||||
risk that is truly limited to a relatively small percentage of the initial investment-the
|
||||
protected stock purchase, for example. In other cases, the risk is limited but is also
|
||||
equal to the entire initial investment. That is, one could lose 100% of his investment
|
||||
in a short time period. Option purchases and bull, bear, or calendar spreads are
|
||||
examples.
|
||||
Thus, although Table A-1 gives a broad perspective on the outlook for various
|
||||
strategies, one must be aware of the differences in reward, risk, and market outlook
|
||||
when actually implementing one of the strategies.
