What are #options ?

For intermediate and expert traders.

For newbies just read it, only trade with what you understand.

I just found that and it is different from futures. Some details:

⚪ Traditional market´s volume of Options are higher than futures and spot together

⚪ Contracts between two parties to buy/sell an asset in the future at a given price

⚪One party has the right, but NOT the obligation, to carry out the transaction at that fixed price (with Futures you have to buy or sell it)

⚪Similar to futures, BUT no risk of liquidations (with Futures, high risk)

⚪Have to pay some fee (Futures don´t assume previous costs)

⚪Loose value as expiry date approaches (in futures, time doesn´t affect them)

⚪More flexible and you can adapt them (futures are more standarized)
