In the past, trading options has gotten a bad rap but with education and a sound trading plan, they can be a VERY profitable way to invest. Words like “risky” or “dangerous” have been incorrectly attached to options trading and we would like to state the advantages to dispel these statements.
1. Leverage – An investor can buy a option position to mimic a stock position at a huge cost savings. For example, in a stock position a purchase of 200 shares at $100 per share would cost $20,000. A similar option position would be to purchase 2, $20 calls (each call equals 100 shares) which would control the same 200 shares for $4,000. Then the investor can use the other $16,000 to invest elsewhere.
2. Lower risk – An investor can protect their position by use of “puts” and “stop-loss orders”. Stop losses will automatically put an order in to exit a position at a predetermined price and puts can make money if the stock goes down.
3. Greater returns – By spending less for a call than for the actual stock, you could make almost the same profit, which translates into a higher percentage return.
4. Profit in any type of market – With the use of puts, options traders can play the downside of the market. This is definitely a benefit!

Do you want to control large amounts of stock for pennies on a dollar? Well who wouldn’t? With call and put options you can!
Each option that is purchased controls 100 shares of stock. For example the cost of an option might be $3 per share, so to control the 100 shares of stock it would cost $300. To purchase that stock, it might be $160 per share, so to purchase that same 100 shares would cost $16,000. With options you have the power of leverage!
Call and put options give you the right to buy (call) and sell (put) a stock at a specified price for a certain period of time. Always remember there is a time element to these options and you will recognize a gain if the stock price goes up (call) or down (put) enough to cover your costs (the stock price plus the cost of the option). If the option expires at or below the stock option price they are worth nothing. Zero, zip, nada! Keep your eye on those options…

An important part of stock trading is conducting technical analysis. This analysis must include support and resistance levels. These are important because they tell you what range a stock’s value has historically traded at.
The support level is the price at which the stock generally does not go below. It is where the demand for the stock keeps the price from going any lower. Of course support breaks can happen, (bummer L) which will then create another support at a lower price point.
The resistance level is the top price for a stock. It is expected that the price will not rise any higher. Again a resistance break can happen, (Yay! J) which will create a higher top price.
Know these levels and use them in your technical analysis so you can win!
