What are options?

An option is a contract that gives you the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell an asset at a specific price (the "strike") before a set date (the "expiration").

Call option

The right to buy at the strike price. You profit if the stock rises above the strike. Think of it as a bet that the stock goes up.

Put option

The right to sell at the strike price. You profit if the stock falls below the strike. Often used as insurance to protect a portfolio from losses.

Options are priced using models that factor in the stock price, strike price, time to expiration, and implied volatility (IV) — the market's expectation of how much the stock will move.
