OPTION CALLS TYPE

Short-Term Call Options
When an option trader buys a call option, trader has the right to buy the underlying at strike price before expiration. Keep in mind that just because the option trader has the right to buy the stock, doesn’t mean that trader has to necessarily do so. The call option just like a put option can be sold anytime up until expiration for a profit or loss
Bull Call Spreads
When implementing a bull call spread, an option trader purchases a call option at one strike and sells the same number of calls on the same stock at a higher strike with the same expiration date.
By implementing a bull call spread, traders can hedge their bets limiting the potential loss. This is the advantage when comparing to purchasing a call outright. Remember that there are no sure-fire ways to make money by using options. However, knowing and understanding the strategy is a good way to limit losses.
Long-Term Call Options
The long call option strategy is the most basic option trading strategy whereby the options trader buys call options with the belief that the price of the underlying security will rise significantly beyond the strike price before the option expiration date.

HOW TO TRADE IN OPTION CALL & PUT

Definition of option
The right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell specific amount of a given stock,  index, at a specified price  during a specified period of time.
The price of the option depends on the price of the underlying, plus a risk premium.
Medium of exchange for options contracts allowing the holder the right to sell or buy an underlying commodity on an open market. The option contracts define the trading limitations of the market, including the option type and the expiration date.
Options are derivatives, which mean their value is derived from the value of an underlying investment. Most frequently the underlying investment on which an option is based is the equity shares in a publicly listed company. Options are traded on securities marketplaces among institutional investors, individual investors, and professional traders and trades can be for one contract or for many. Fractional contracts are not traded.

Butterfly Spread

All the strategies up to this point have required a combination of two different positions or contracts. In a butterfly spread options strategy, an investor will combine both a bull spread strategy and a bear spread strategy, and use three different strike prices. For example, one type of butterfly spread involves purchasing one call (put) option at the lowest (highest) strike price, while selling two call (put) options at a higher (lower) strike price, and then one last call (put) option at an even higher (lower) strike price.

The calendar spread refers to a family of spreads involving options of the same underlying stock, same strike prices, but different expiration months. They can be created with either all calls or all puts.  Also known as time spread or horizontal spread.
Call Calendar Spread
Using calls, the calendar spread strategy can be setup by buying long term calls and simultaneously writing an equal number of near-month at-the-money or slightly out-of-the-money calls of the same underlying security with the same strike price.
The idea behind the calendar spread is to sell time, which is why calendar spreads are also known as time spreads. The options trader hopes that price of the underlying remains unchanged at expiration of the near month options so that they expire worthless. As the time decay of near month options is at a faster rate than longer term options, his long term options still retain much of their value. The options trader can then either own the longer term calls for less or write some more calls and repeat the process.

Covered Call


Aside from purchasing a naked call option, you can also engage in a basic covered call or buy-write strategy. In this strategy, you would purchase the assets outright, and simultaneously write (or sell) a call option on those same assets. Your volume of assets owned should be equivalent to the number of assets underlying the call option. Investors will often use this position when they have a short-term position and a neutral opinion on the assets, and are looking to generate additional profits (through receipt of the call premium), or protect against a potential decline in the underlying asset's value.

WHAT ARE OPTION ? AND TYPES OF OPTION

OPTION
An option is a contract that gives the buyer the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell an underlying asset at a specific price on or before a certain date. An option, just like a stock or bond, is a security. It is also a binding contract with strictly defined terms and properties.

CALLS AND PUTS
The two types of options are calls and puts:
call gives the holder the right to buy an asset at a certain price within a specific period of time. Calls are similar to having a long position on a stock. Buyers of calls hope that the stock will increase substantially before the option expires.
put gives the holder the right to sell an asset at a certain price within a specific period of time. Puts are very similar to having a short position on a stock. Buyers of puts hope that the price of the stock will fall before the option expires.
Participants in the Options Market
There are four types of participants in options markets depending on the position they take:
·              Buyers of calls
·              Sellers of calls
·              Buyers of puts
·              Sellers of puts
People who buy options are called holders and those who sell options are called writers; furthermore, buyers are said to have long positions, and sellers are said to have short positions.
