20 • The Intelligent Option Investor
|
||||
Any time a gain of exposure overlaps another gain of exposure,
|
||||
the potential gain from an investment if the stock price moves into that
|
||||
region rises. We will not represent this in the diagrams of this book,
|
||||
but you can think of overlapping gains as deeper and deeper shades of
|
||||
green (when gaining exposure) and deeper and deeper shades of red
|
||||
(when accepting it).
|
||||
Now that you understand how to graphically represent gaining and
|
||||
accepting exposure to both upside and downside directionality and how to
|
||||
represent situations when opposing exposures overlap, we can move onto
|
||||
the next section, which introduces the great flexibility options grant to an
|
||||
investor and discusses how that flexibility can be used as a force of either
|
||||
good or evil.
|
||||
Flexibility
|
||||
Again, the main takeaway of this section should be obvious from the title.
|
||||
Here we will see the only two choices stock investors have with regard to
|
||||
risk and return, and we will contrast that with the great flexibility an option
|
||||
investor has. We will also discuss the concept of an effective buy price and
|
||||
an effective sell price—two bits of intelligent option investor jargon. Last,
|
||||
we will look at a typical option strategy that might be recommended by
|
||||
an option “guru” and note that these types of strategies actually are at
|
||||
cross-purposes with the directional nature of options that makes them so
|
||||
powerful in the first place.
|
||||
Jargon introduced in this chapter is as follows:
|
||||
Effective buy price (EBP) Covered call
|
||||
Effective sell price (ESP) Long strangle
|
||||
Leg

||||
Stocks Give Investors Few Choices
|
||||
A stock investor only has two choices when it comes to investing: going
|
||||
long or going short. Using our visualization technique, those two choices
|
||||
look like this:
