has reached an important milestone.According to Elon Musk, the company has produced over 3 million cars.TSLA stock is rising today as the electric vehicle leader celebrates.Investors have been watching Tesla stock closely since the company confirmed its 3-for-1 stock split. But this weekend brought more good news in a different category. On Sunday, Aug. 14, Elon Musk tweeted that the number of Tesla vehicles produced worldwide has surpassed 3 million.Given the supply chain and production constraints that the electric vehicle leader has faced this year, that is no small feat. TSLA stock is rising today on a steady, upward trajectory. This growth may have more to do with broader market forces than company-specific news, but Tesla’s milestone still hints at a more prosperous future.The 3-million benchmark demonstrates that the company will not be held down, no matter how many supply chain and labor constraints it encounters.Let’s take a look at the bigger picture.What This Means for TSLA StockTesla crossed this important production threshold at its Shanghai Gigafactory, a facility whose doors were closed only a few months ago. Yesterday, Musk tweeted the following, acknowledging its efforts:Investors should that Tesla reached the 3-million mark with two only factories doing most of the work for much of 2022. Barron’s reports that the Shanghai and Fremont factories were the driving forces that pushed production this far. As the outlet notes:Tesla started shipping vehicles out of Shanghai around the start of 2020. It took that plant less than two years to hit 1 million units shipped. The Fremont plant took almost 10 years to ship the same amount. Of course, Tesla added new, lower-priced models, starting with the Model 3 back in 2017.It added, though, that Tesla is working hard to ramp up production both in Austin and Berlin. If the company can successfully do that, it can scale production significantly in the months ahead. This should be particularly encouraging for investors. InvestorPlace analyst Louis Navellier recently weighed in on concerns about slow growth at these two facilities:Looking beyond the headline quote, the idling at Tesla’s Berlin and Austin Gigafactories is a classic, short-term challenge. These factories aren’t white elephants. They may indeed be burning through billions of dollars at the moment, but that is because of a specific issue — and it’s not lack of demand.Tesla’s recent production success indicates that his forecast has held up. Less than two months later, TSLA stock has soared above $900 per share. As Navellier noted, EV demand has only increased and Tesla is redoubling its efforts to meet it.Investors should take the 3 million milestone as a sign that TSLA stock is back on the path toward long-term growth.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"TSLA":1}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2032,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9999532643,"gmtCreate":1660548926985,"gmtModify":1676534065782,"author":{"id":"4090392463899480","authorId":"4090392463899480","name":"Goldcrest","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/d92bbdede71966c82138d73e56651f5b","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"4090392463899480","idStr":"4090392463899480"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"👍","listText":"👍","text":"👍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9999532643","repostId":"1118303564","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1118303564","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1660546996,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1118303564?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-08-15 15:03","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Options Trading Strategies: 5 Strategies for Beginners","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1118303564","media":"Investopedia","summary":"KEY TAKEAWAYSOptions trading may sound risky or complex for beginner investors, and so they often st","content":"<html><head></head><body><p><b>KEY TAKEAWAYS</b></p><ul><li>Options trading may sound risky or complex for beginner investors, and so they often stay away.</li><li>Some basic strategies using options, however, can help a novice investor protect their downside and hedge market risk.</li><li>Here we look at four such strategies: long calls, long puts, covered calls, protective puts, and straddles.</li><li>Options trading can be complex, so be sure to understand the risks and rewards involved before diving in.</li></ul><p>Options are a form of derivative contract that gives buyers of the contracts (the option holders) the right (but not the obligation) to buy or sell a security at a chosen price at some point in the future. Option buyers are charged an amount called a premium by the sellers for such a right. Should market prices be unfavorable for option holders, they will let the option expire worthless and not exercise this right, ensuring that potential losses are not higher than the premium. On the other hand, if the market moves in the direction that makes this right more valuable, it makes use of it.</p><p>Options are generally divided into "call" and "put" contracts. With a call option, the buyer of the contract purchases the right to <i>buy</i> the underlying asset in the future at a predetermined price, called exercise price or strike price. With a put option, the buyer acquires the right to <i>sell</i> the underlying asset in the future at the predetermined price.</p><p>Let's take a look at some basic strategies that a beginner investor can use with calls or puts to limit their risk. The first two involve using options to place a direction bet with a limited downside if the bet goes wrong. The others involve hedging strategies laid on top of existing positions.</p><p><b>Buying Calls (Long Calls)</b></p><p>There are some advantages to trading options for those looking to make a directional bet in the market. If you think the price of an asset will rise, you can buy a call option using less capital than the asset itself. At the same time, if the price instead falls, your losses are limited to the premium paid for the options and no more. This could be a preferred strategy for traders who:</p><ul><li>Are "bullish" or confident about a particular stock, exchange-traded fund (ETF), or index fund and want to limit risk</li><li>Want to utilize leverage to take advantage of rising prices</li></ul><p>Options are essentially leveraged instruments in that they allow traders to amplify the potential upside benefit by using smaller amounts than would otherwise be required if trading the underlying asset itself. So, instead of laying out $10,000 to buy 100 shares of a $100 stock, you could hypothetically spend, say, $2,000 on a call contract with a strike price 10% higher than the current market price.</p><p><b>Tip: </b>A standard equity option contract on a stockcontrols100 shares of theunderlying security.</p><p><b>Example</b></p><p>Suppose a trader wants to invest $5,000 in Apple (AAPL), trading at around $165 per share. With this amount, they can purchase 30 shares for $4,950. Suppose then that the price of the stock increases by 10% to $181.50 over the next month. Ignoring any brokerage commission or transaction fees, the trader’s portfolio will rise to $5,445, leaving the trader with a net dollar return of $495, or 10% on the capital invested.</p><p>Now, let's say a call option on the stock with a strike price of $165 that expires about a month from now costs $5.50 per share or $550 per contract. Given the trader's available investment budget, they can buy nine options for a cost of $4,950. Because the option contract controls 100 shares, the trader is effectively making a deal on 900 shares. If the stock price increases 10% to $181.50 at expiration, the option will expire in the money (ITM) and be worth $16.50 per share (for a $181.50 to $165 strike), or $14,850 on 900 shares. That's a net dollar return of $9,990, or 200% on the capital invested, a much larger return compared to trading the underlying asset directly.</p><p><b>Risk/reward</b></p><p>The trader's potential loss from a long call is limited to the premium paid. Potential profit is unlimited because the option payoff will increase along with the underlying asset price until expiration, and there is theoretically no limit to how high it can go.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/ed43525aed99dba37e990ddd8a9e733b\" tg-width=\"660\" tg-height=\"418\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Image by Julie Bang © Investopedia 2019</span></p><p><b>Buying Puts (Long Puts)</b></p><p>If a call option gives the holder the right to purchase the underlying at a set price before the contract expires, a put option gives the holder the right to<i>sell</i>the underlying at a set price. This is a preferred strategy for traders who:</p><ul><li>Are bearish on a particular stock, ETF, or index, but want to take on less risk than with a short-selling strategy</li><li>Want to utilize leverage to take advantage of falling prices</li></ul><p>A put option works effectively in the exact opposite direction from the way a call option does, with the put option gaining value as the price of the underlying decreases. Though short-selling also allows a trader to profit from falling prices, the risk with a short position is unlimited because there is theoretically no limit to how high a price can rise. With a put option, if the underlying ends up higher than the option's strike price, the option will simply expire worthless.</p><p><b>Example</b></p><p>Say that you think the price of a stock is likely to decline from $60 to $50 or lower based on bad earnings, but you don't want to risk selling the stock short in case you are wrong.

It is essentially an upside call that is sold in an amount that would cover that existing position size. In this way, the covered call writer collects the option premium as income, but also limits the upside potential of the underlying position. This is a preferred position for traders who:</p><ul><li>Expect no change or a slight increase in the underlying's price, collecting the full option premium</li><li>Are willing to limit upside potential in exchange for some downside protection</li></ul><p>A covered call strategy involves buying 100 shares of the underlying asset and selling a call option against those shares. When the trader sells the call, the option's premium is collected, thus lowering the cost basison the shares and providing some downside protection. In return, by selling the option, the trader is agreeing to sell shares of the underlying at the option's strike price, thereby capping the trader's upside potential.</p><p><b>Example</b></p><p>Suppose a trader buys 1,000 shares of BP (BP) at $44 per share and simultaneously writes 10 call options (one contract for every 100 shares) with a strike price of $46 expiring in one month, at a cost of $0.25 per share, or $25 per contract and $250 total for the 10 contracts. The $0.25 premium reduces the cost basis on the shares to $43.75, so any drop in the underlying down to this point will be offset by the premium received from the option position, thus offering limited downside protection.</p><p>If the share price rises above $46 before expiration, the short call option will be exercised (or "called away"), meaning the trader will have to deliver the stock at the option's strike price. In this case, the trader will make a profit of $2.25 per share ($46 strike price - $43.75 cost basis).</p><p>However, this example implies the trader does not expect BP to move above $46 or significantly below $44 over the next month. As long as the shares do not rise above $46 and get called away before the options expire, the trader will keep the premium free and clear and can continue selling calls against the shares if desired.</p><p><b>Risk/reward</b></p><p>If the share price rises above the strike price before expiration, the short call option can be exercised and the trader will have to deliver shares of the underlying at the option's strike price, even if it is below the market price. In exchange for this risk, a covered call strategy provides limited downside protection in the form of the premium received when selling the call option.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/060c4075ba84fa8406865044327bb21a\" tg-width=\"660\" tg-height=\"418\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Image by Julie Bang © Investopedia 2019</span></p><p><b>Protective Puts</b></p><p>A protective put involves buying a downside put in an amount to cover an existing position in the underlying asset. In effect, this strategy puts a lower floor below which you cannot lose more. Of course, you will have to pay for the option's premium. In this way, it acts as a sort of insurance policy against losses. This is a preferred strategy for traders who own the underlying asset and want downside protection.</p><p>Thus, a protective put is a long put, like the strategy we discussed above; however, the goal, as the name implies, is downside protection versus attempting to profit from a downside move. If a trader owns shares with a bullish sentiment in the long run but wants to protect against a decline in the short run, they may purchase a protective put.</p><p>If the price of the underlying increases and is above the put's strike price at maturity, the option expires worthless and the trader loses the premium but still has the benefit of the increased underlying price. On the other hand, if the underlying price decreases, the trader’s portfolio position loses value, but this loss is largely covered by the gain from the put option position. Hence, the position can effectively be thought of as an insurance strategy.</p><p><b>Example</b></p><p>The trader can set the strike price below the current price to reduce premium payment at the expense of decreasing downside protection. This can be thought of as deductible insurance. Suppose, for example, that an investor buys 1,000 shares of Coca-Cola (KO) at a price of $44 and wants to protect the investment from adverse price movements over the next two months. The following put options are available:</p><p><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/0b1cae54dd9829363240190149f81ae7\" tg-width=\"884\" tg-height=\"487\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/></p><p>The table shows that the cost of protection increases with the level thereof. For example, if the trader wants to protect the investment against any drop in price, they can buy 10 at-the-money put options at a strike price of $44 for $1.23 per share, or $123 per contract, for a total cost of $1,230. However, if the trader is willing to tolerate some level of downside risk, choosing a less costly out-of-the-money (OTM)option such as the $40 put could also work. In this case, the cost of the option position will be much lower at only $200.</p><p><b>Risk/reward</b></p><p>If the price of the underlying stays the same or rises, the potential loss will be limited to the option premium, which is paid as insurance. If, however, the price of the underlying drops, the loss in capital will be offset by an increase in the option's price and is limited to the difference between the initial stock price and strike price plus the premium paid for the option. In the example above, at the strike price of $40, the loss is limited to $4.20 per share ($44 - $40 + $0.20).</p><p><b>Long Straddles</b></p><p>Buying a straddle lets you capitalize on future volatility but without having to take a bet whether the move will be to the upside or downside—either direction will profit.</p><p>Here, an investor buys both a call option and a put option at the same strike price and expiration on the same underlying. Because it involves purchasing two at-the-money options, it is more expensive than some other strategies.</p><p><b>Example</b></p><p>Consider someone who expects a particular stock to experience large price fluctuations following an earnings announcement on Jan. 15. Currently, the stock’s price is $100.</p><p>The investor creates a straddle by purchasing both a $5 put option and a $5 call option at a $100 strike price which expires on Jan. 30. The net option premium for this straddle is $10. The trader would realize a profit if the price of the underlying security was above $110 (which is the strike price plus the net option premium) or below $90 (which is the strike price minus the net option premium) at the time of expiration.</p><p><b>Risk/reward</b></p><p>A long straddle can only lose a maximum of what you paid for it. Since it involves two options, however, it will cost more than either a call or put by itself. The maximum reward is theoretically unlimited to the upside and is bounded to the downside by the strike price (e.g., if you own a $20 straddle and the stock price goes to zero, you would make a max. of $20).</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/99417c09afae347175e4c7c0a2b17fcd\" tg-width=\"660\" tg-height=\"418\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\"/><span>Image by Julie Bang © Investopedia 2019</span></p><p><b>Some Basic Other Options Strategies</b></p><p>The strategies outlined here are straightforward and can be employed by most novice traders or investors. There are, however, more nuanced strategies than simply buying calls or puts. While we discuss many of these types of strategies elsewhere, here is just a brief list of some other basic options positions that would be suitable for those comfortable with the ones discussed above:</p><ul><li><b>Married put strategy:</b> Similar to a protective put, themarried putinvolves buying anat-the-money (ATM)put option in an amount to cover an existing long position in the stock.

They will have the same expiration date, but they have different strike prices: The put strike price should be below the call strike price. This involves a lower outlay of premium than a straddle but also requires the stock to move either higher to the upside or lower to the downside in order to be profitable.</li><li><b>Vertical Spreads</b>: A vertical spread involves the simultaneous buying and selling of options of the same type (i.e., either puts or calls) and expiry, but at different strike prices. These can be constructed as either bull or bear spreads, which will profit when the market rises or falls, respectively. Spreads are less costly that a long call or long put since you are also receiving the options premium from the one you sold. However, this also limits your potential upside to the width between the strikes.</li></ul><p><b>Advantages and Disadvantages of Trading Options</b></p><p>The biggest advantage to buying options is that you have great upside potential with losses limited only to the option's premium. However, this can also be a drawback since options will expire worthless if the stock does not move enough to be in-the-money. This means that buying a lot of out-of-the-money options can be costly.</p><p>Options can be very useful as a source of leverage and risk hedging. For example, a bullish investor who wishes to invest $1,000 in a company could potentially earn a far greater return by purchasing $1,000 worth of call options on that firm, as compared to buying $1,000 of that company’s shares. In this sense, the call options provide the investor with a way to leverage their position by increasing their buying power. On the other hand, if that same investor already has exposure to that same company and wants to reduce that exposure, they could hedge their risk by selling put options against that company.</p><p>The main disadvantage of options contracts is that they are complex and difficult to price. This is why options are often considered a more advanced investment vehicle, suitable only for experienced investors. In recent years, they have become increasingly popular among retail investors. Because of their capacity for outsized returns or losses, investors should make sure they fully understand the potential implications before entering into any options positions. Failing to do so can lead to devastating losses.</p><p>There is also a large risk selling options in that you take on theoretically unlimited risk with profits limited to the premium (price) received for the option.</p></body></html>","source":"lsy1606203311635","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\" />\n<meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0,minimum-scale=1.0,maximum-scale=1.0,user-scalable=no\"/>\n<meta name=\"format-detection\" content=\"telephone=no,email=no,address=no\" />\n<title>Options Trading Strategies: 5 Strategies for Beginners</title>\n<style type=\"text/css\">\na,abbr,acronym,address,applet,article,aside,audio,b,big,blockquote,body,canvas,caption,center,cite,code,dd,del,details,dfn,div,dl,dt,\nem,embed,fieldset,figcaption,figure,footer,form,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,header,hgroup,html,i,iframe,img,ins,kbd,label,legend,li,mark,menu,nav,\nobject,ol,output,p,pre,q,ruby,s,samp,section,small,span,strike,strong,sub,summary,sup,table,tbody,td,tfoot,th,thead,time,tr,tt,u,ul,var,video{ font:inherit;margin:0;padding:0;vertical-align:baseline;border:0 }\nbody{ font-size:16px; line-height:1.5; color:#999; background:transparent; }\n.wrapper{ overflow:hidden;word-break:break-all;padding:10px; }\nh1,h2{ font-weight:normal; line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:.6em; }\nh3,h4,h5,h6{ line-height:1.35; margin-bottom:1em; }\nh1{ font-size:24px; }\nh2{ font-size:20px; }\nh3{ font-size:18px; }\nh4{ font-size:16px; }\nh5{ font-size:14px; }\nh6{ font-size:12px; }\np,ul,ol,blockquote,dl,table{ margin:1.2em 0; }\nul,ol{ margin-left:2em; }\nul{ list-style:disc; }\nol{ list-style:decimal; }\nli,li p{ margin:10px 0;}\nimg{ max-width:100%;display:block;margin:0 auto 1em; }\nblockquote{ color:#B5B2B1; border-left:3px solid #aaa; padding:1em; }\nstrong,b{font-weight:bold;}\nem,i{font-style:italic;}\ntable{ width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;border-spacing:1px;margin:1em 0;font-size:.9em; }\nth,td{ padding:5px;text-align:left;border:1px solid #aaa; }\nth{ font-weight:bold;background:#5d5d5d; }\n.symbol-link{font-weight:bold;}\n/* header{ border-bottom:1px solid #494756; } */\n.title{ margin:0 0 8px;line-height:1.3;color:#ddd; }\n.meta {color:#5e5c6d;font-size:13px;margin:0 0 .5em; }\na{text-decoration:none; color:#2a4b87;}\n.meta .head { display: inline-block; overflow: hidden}\n.head .h-thumb { width: 30px; height: 30px; margin: 0; padding: 0; border-radius: 50%; float: left;}\n.head .h-content { margin: 0; padding: 0 0 0 9px; float: left;}\n.head .h-name {font-size: 13px; color: #eee; margin: 0;}\n.head .h-time {font-size: 11px; color: #7E829C; margin: 0;line-height: 11px;}\n.small {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.9); -webkit-transform: scale(0.9); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.smaller {font-size: 12.5px; display: inline-block; transform: scale(0.8); -webkit-transform: scale(0.8); transform-origin: left; -webkit-transform-origin: left;}\n.bt-text {font-size: 12px;margin: 1.5em 0 0 0}\n.bt-text p {margin: 0}\n</style>\n</head>\n<body>\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<header>\n<h2 class=\"title\">\nOptions Trading Strategies: 5 Strategies for Beginners\n</h2>\n\n<h4 class=\"meta\">\n\n\n2022-08-15 15:03 GMT+8 <a href=https://www.investopedia.com/articles/active-trading/040915/guide-option-trading-strategies-beginners.asp><strong>Investopedia</strong></a>\n\n\n</h4>\n\n</header>\n<article>\n<div>\n<p>KEY TAKEAWAYSOptions trading may sound risky or complex for beginner investors, and so they often stay away.Some basic strategies using options, however, can help a novice investor protect their ...</p>\n\n<a href=\"https://www.investopedia.com/articles/active-trading/040915/guide-option-trading-strategies-beginners.asp\">Web Link</a>\n\n</div>\n\n\n</article>\n</div>\n</body>\n</html>\n","type":0,"thumbnail":"","relate_stocks":{".IXIC":"NASDAQ Composite",".SPX":"S&P 500 Index",".DJI":"道琼斯"},"source_url":"https://www.investopedia.com/articles/active-trading/040915/guide-option-trading-strategies-beginners.asp","is_english":true,"share_image_url":"https://static.laohu8.com/e9f99090a1c2ed51c021029395664489","article_id":"1118303564","content_text":"KEY TAKEAWAYSOptions trading may sound risky or complex for beginner investors, and so they often stay away.Some basic strategies using options, however, can help a novice investor protect their downside and hedge market risk.Here we look at four such strategies: long calls, long puts, covered calls, protective puts, and straddles.Options trading can be complex, so be sure to understand the risks and rewards involved before diving in.Options are a form of derivative contract that gives buyers of the contracts (the option holders) the right (but not the obligation) to buy or sell a security at a chosen price at some point in the future. Option buyers are charged an amount called a premium by the sellers for such a right. Should market prices be unfavorable for option holders, they will let the option expire worthless and not exercise this right, ensuring that potential losses are not higher than the premium. On the other hand, if the market moves in the direction that makes this right more valuable, it makes use of it.Options are generally divided into \"call\" and \"put\" contracts. With a call option, the buyer of the contract purchases the right to buy the underlying asset in the future at a predetermined price, called exercise price or strike price. With a put option, the buyer acquires the right to sell the underlying asset in the future at the predetermined price.Let's take a look at some basic strategies that a beginner investor can use with calls or puts to limit their risk. The first two involve using options to place a direction bet with a limited downside if the bet goes wrong. The others involve hedging strategies laid on top of existing positions.Buying Calls (Long Calls)There are some advantages to trading options for those looking to make a directional bet in the market. If you think the price of an asset will rise, you can buy a call option using less capital than the asset itself. At the same time, if the price instead falls, your losses are limited to the premium paid for the options and no more. This could be a preferred strategy for traders who:Are \"bullish\" or confident about a particular stock, exchange-traded fund (ETF), or index fund and want to limit riskWant to utilize leverage to take advantage of rising pricesOptions are essentially leveraged instruments in that they allow traders to amplify the potential upside benefit by using smaller amounts than would otherwise be required if trading the underlying asset itself. So, instead of laying out $10,000 to buy 100 shares of a $100 stock, you could hypothetically spend, say, $2,000 on a call contract with a strike price 10% higher than the current market price.Tip: A standard equity option contract on a stockcontrols100 shares of theunderlying security.ExampleSuppose a trader wants to invest $5,000 in Apple (AAPL), trading at around $165 per share. With this amount, they can purchase 30 shares for $4,950. Suppose then that the price of the stock increases by 10% to $181.50 over the next month. Ignoring any brokerage commission or transaction fees, the trader’s portfolio will rise to $5,445, leaving the trader with a net dollar return of $495, or 10% on the capital invested.Now, let's say a call option on the stock with a strike price of $165 that expires about a month from now costs $5.50 per share or $550 per contract. Given the trader's available investment budget, they can buy nine options for a cost of $4,950. Because the option contract controls 100 shares, the trader is effectively making a deal on 900 shares. If the stock price increases 10% to $181.50 at expiration, the option will expire in the money (ITM) and be worth $16.50 per share (for a $181.50 to $165 strike), or $14,850 on 900 shares. That's a net dollar return of $9,990, or 200% on the capital invested, a much larger return compared to trading the underlying asset directly.Risk/rewardThe trader's potential loss from a long call is limited to the premium paid. Potential profit is unlimited because the option payoff will increase along with the underlying asset price until expiration, and there is theoretically no limit to how high it can go.Image by Julie Bang © Investopedia 2019Buying Puts (Long Puts)If a call option gives the holder the right to purchase the underlying at a set price before the contract expires, a put option gives the holder the right tosellthe underlying at a set price. This is a preferred strategy for traders who:Are bearish on a particular stock, ETF, or index, but want to take on less risk than with a short-selling strategyWant to utilize leverage to take advantage of falling pricesA put option works effectively in the exact opposite direction from the way a call option does, with the put option gaining value as the price of the underlying decreases. Though short-selling also allows a trader to profit from falling prices, the risk with a short position is unlimited because there is theoretically no limit to how high a price can rise. With a put option, if the underlying ends up higher than the option's strike price, the option will simply expire worthless.ExampleSay that you think the price of a stock is likely to decline from $60 to $50 or lower based on bad earnings, but you don't want to risk selling the stock short in case you are wrong. Instead, you can buy the $50 put for a premium of $2.00. If the stock does not fall below $50, or if indeed it rises, the most you will lose is the $2.00 premium.However, if you are right and the stock drops all the way to $45, you would make $3 ($50 minus $45. less the $2 premium).Risk/rewardThe potential loss on a long put is limited to the premium paid for the options. The maximum profit from the position is capped because the underlying price cannot drop below zero, but as with a long call option, the put option leverages the trader's return.Image by Julie Bang © Investopedia 2019Covered CallsUnlike the long call or long put, a covered call is a strategy that is overlaid onto an existing long position in the underlying asset. It is essentially an upside call that is sold in an amount that would cover that existing position size. In this way, the covered call writer collects the option premium as income, but also limits the upside potential of the underlying position. This is a preferred position for traders who:Expect no change or a slight increase in the underlying's price, collecting the full option premiumAre willing to limit upside potential in exchange for some downside protectionA covered call strategy involves buying 100 shares of the underlying asset and selling a call option against those shares. When the trader sells the call, the option's premium is collected, thus lowering the cost basison the shares and providing some downside protection. In return, by selling the option, the trader is agreeing to sell shares of the underlying at the option's strike price, thereby capping the trader's upside potential.ExampleSuppose a trader buys 1,000 shares of BP (BP) at $44 per share and simultaneously writes 10 call options (one contract for every 100 shares) with a strike price of $46 expiring in one month, at a cost of $0.25 per share, or $25 per contract and $250 total for the 10 contracts. The $0.25 premium reduces the cost basis on the shares to $43.75, so any drop in the underlying down to this point will be offset by the premium received from the option position, thus offering limited downside protection.If the share price rises above $46 before expiration, the short call option will be exercised (or \"called away\"), meaning the trader will have to deliver the stock at the option's strike price. In this case, the trader will make a profit of $2.25 per share ($46 strike price - $43.75 cost basis).However, this example implies the trader does not expect BP to move above $46 or significantly below $44 over the next month. As long as the shares do not rise above $46 and get called away before the options expire, the trader will keep the premium free and clear and can continue selling calls against the shares if desired.Risk/rewardIf the share price rises above the strike price before expiration, the short call option can be exercised and the trader will have to deliver shares of the underlying at the option's strike price, even if it is below the market price. In exchange for this risk, a covered call strategy provides limited downside protection in the form of the premium received when selling the call option.Image by Julie Bang © Investopedia 2019Protective PutsA protective put involves buying a downside put in an amount to cover an existing position in the underlying asset. In effect, this strategy puts a lower floor below which you cannot lose more. Of course, you will have to pay for the option's premium. In this way, it acts as a sort of insurance policy against losses. This is a preferred strategy for traders who own the underlying asset and want downside protection.Thus, a protective put is a long put, like the strategy we discussed above; however, the goal, as the name implies, is downside protection versus attempting to profit from a downside move. If a trader owns shares with a bullish sentiment in the long run but wants to protect against a decline in the short run, they may purchase a protective put.If the price of the underlying increases and is above the put's strike price at maturity, the option expires worthless and the trader loses the premium but still has the benefit of the increased underlying price. On the other hand, if the underlying price decreases, the trader’s portfolio position loses value, but this loss is largely covered by the gain from the put option position. Hence, the position can effectively be thought of as an insurance strategy.ExampleThe trader can set the strike price below the current price to reduce premium payment at the expense of decreasing downside protection. This can be thought of as deductible insurance. Suppose, for example, that an investor buys 1,000 shares of Coca-Cola (KO) at a price of $44 and wants to protect the investment from adverse price movements over the next two months. The following put options are available:The table shows that the cost of protection increases with the level thereof. For example, if the trader wants to protect the investment against any drop in price, they can buy 10 at-the-money put options at a strike price of $44 for $1.23 per share, or $123 per contract, for a total cost of $1,230. However, if the trader is willing to tolerate some level of downside risk, choosing a less costly out-of-the-money (OTM)option such as the $40 put could also work. In this case, the cost of the option position will be much lower at only $200.Risk/rewardIf the price of the underlying stays the same or rises, the potential loss will be limited to the option premium, which is paid as insurance. If, however, the price of the underlying drops, the loss in capital will be offset by an increase in the option's price and is limited to the difference between the initial stock price and strike price plus the premium paid for the option. In the example above, at the strike price of $40, the loss is limited to $4.20 per share ($44 - $40 + $0.20).Long StraddlesBuying a straddle lets you capitalize on future volatility but without having to take a bet whether the move will be to the upside or downside—either direction will profit.Here, an investor buys both a call option and a put option at the same strike price and expiration on the same underlying. Because it involves purchasing two at-the-money options, it is more expensive than some other strategies.ExampleConsider someone who expects a particular stock to experience large price fluctuations following an earnings announcement on Jan. 15. Currently, the stock’s price is $100.The investor creates a straddle by purchasing both a $5 put option and a $5 call option at a $100 strike price which expires on Jan. 30. The net option premium for this straddle is $10. The trader would realize a profit if the price of the underlying security was above $110 (which is the strike price plus the net option premium) or below $90 (which is the strike price minus the net option premium) at the time of expiration.Risk/rewardA long straddle can only lose a maximum of what you paid for it.

On the other hand, if that same investor already has exposure to that same company and wants to reduce that exposure, they could hedge their risk by selling put options against that company.The main disadvantage of options contracts is that they are complex and difficult to price. This is why options are often considered a more advanced investment vehicle, suitable only for experienced investors. In recent years, they have become increasingly popular among retail investors. Because of their capacity for outsized returns or losses, investors should make sure they fully understand the potential implications before entering into any options positions. Failing to do so can lead to devastating losses.There is also a large risk selling options in that you take on theoretically unlimited risk with profits limited to the premium (price) received for the option.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{".IXIC":0.9,".DJI":0.9,".SPX":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2353,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9908191004,"gmtCreate":1659331304308,"gmtModify":1676536288524,"author":{"id":"4090392463899480","authorId":"4090392463899480","name":"Goldcrest","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/d92bbdede71966c82138d73e56651f5b","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"4090392463899480","idStr":"4090392463899480"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"👍","listText":"👍","text":"👍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9908191004","repostId":"2255503574","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2255503574","kind":"highlight","pubTimestamp":1659321761,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/2255503574?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-08-01 10:42","market":"us","language":"en","title":"1 Reason to Get Excited About Stock Splits and 1 Reason to Be Cautious","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2255503574","media":"Motley Fool","summary":"Companies often undergo stock splits after periods of notable success boost their share prices.

Amazon (AMZN 10.36%), Google (GOOG 1.79%), Tesla, (TSLA 5.79%), and Shopify (SHOP -3.01%) are just a few of the major names that have announced them in 2022.Research from the Journal of Banking and Finance shows that stock splits historically have had a positive impact on short-term returns. So should you get excited about companies that are splitting their stock? I believe there's one reason to be optimistic about these events, but another serious reason to approach them with caution.What is a stock split?First, let's define what a stock split is and why a company might want to perform one.As a company's share price goes up, eventually it may reach a level where average investors will struggle to afford even a single share. Amazon, for example, was recently trading above $2,000 before it underwent a 20-to-1 stock split, reducing its share price to around $100. Shareholders were given 19 additional shares for every one they owned, and the value of those shares was reduced proportionally, leaving the company's market cap unchanged.Lower share prices put those stocks more easily in reach of retail investors. One of the main goals of stock splits is to boost liquidity, under the theory that a more reasonable price will entice more investors to buy the stock.Stock splits can indicate a company is firing on all cylindersLet's be 100% clear: A stock split should not be the reason you invest in any company. This financial maneuver does absolutely nothing to improve the long-term performance of a business.That said, I like to see a company undergo a stock split because on most occasions, it follows a considerable share price rise, and thus typically indicates the company has probably been performing quite well.For example, since Amazon's last split in 1999, its stock price has risen by more than 3,000%. When a stock rises by that magnitude over 23 years, it's usually because the underlying business has been executing incredibly.AMZN data by YChartsAlphabet -- the parent company of Google -- split its stock in 2014, and rose nearly 300% since then to over $2,000 per share. That prompted its 20-to-1 split this month.Look out for companies taking advantage of stock split maniaSometimes struggling companies try to leverage the investor excitement that stock splits generate to boost their share prices. For example, consider GameStop's (GME 0.50%) recent 4-to-1 split.The niche retailer's stock price oscillations made headlines in 2020 as retail investors conducted a short squeeze that sent its share price soaring. Other short squeeze attempts followed, but since it peaked in January 2021, the meme stock is down by more than 60%.GME data by YChartsIt's possible GameStop management's motivation for the recent split was to attract more retail traders in hopes of sparking another squeeze. Or maybe the low share price of around $30 will confuse investors into thinking it's undervalued. But the important thing to remember is absolutely nothing has changed about GameStop's struggling business. Its financials are still a mess, and its valuation remains quite pricey at a price-to-book ratio of 7.5.Investors should be on the lookout when struggling businesses try to capitalize on stock split mania to boost their share prices. It's usually a trap.Remember the pizza analogy The easiest way to think about stock splits is to imagine a pizza. No matter how many slices you cut the pie into, the overall amount of pizza remains the same size.It's the same with companies. You can divide the stock as much as you'd like, but the market cap does not change. Neither do the underlying business's fundamentals.While it's nice to see your portfolio's big winners split their shares, ultimately, you would be better off focusing on the quality of the underlying business when making investment decisions.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"AMZN":0.74,"GME":0.74,"GOOG":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2028,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9901871656,"gmtCreate":1659171868175,"gmtModify":1676536268666,"author":{"id":"4090392463899480","authorId":"4090392463899480","name":"Goldcrest","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/d92bbdede71966c82138d73e56651f5b","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"4090392463899480","idStr":"4090392463899480"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"👍","listText":"👍","text":"👍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":1,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9901871656","repostId":"1167462110","repostType":4,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":2959,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":9909424665,"gmtCreate":1658910699557,"gmtModify":1676536227787,"author":{"id":"4090392463899480","authorId":"4090392463899480","name":"Goldcrest","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/d92bbdede71966c82138d73e56651f5b","crmLevel":11,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"authorIdStr":"4090392463899480","idStr":"4090392463899480"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"👍","listText":"👍","text":"👍","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":3,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/9909424665","repostId":"1118051421","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1118051421","kind":"news","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Providing stock market headlines, business news, financials and earnings ","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Tiger Newspress","id":"1079075236","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/8274c5b9d4c2852bfb1c4d6ce16c68ba"},"pubTimestamp":1658909342,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1118051421?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2022-07-27 16:09","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Alphabet Shares Jumped 4.57% as Search Ads Topping Wall Street Targets","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1118051421","media":"Tiger Newspress","summary":"Alphabet shares jumped 4.57% as search ads topping wall street targets.Google parent Alphabet Inc on","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>Alphabet shares jumped 4.57% as search ads topping wall street targets.<img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/a1273be77f6d088994f6cf06f49db3cd\" tg-width=\"845\" tg-height=\"824\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"/>Google parent Alphabet Inc on Tuesday posted quarterly sales close to Wall Street targets, sending shares up on relief that the world's biggest seller of online advertising had avoided the deep disappointment of rivals including Snap.</p><p>Sales from Google's search ad business actually topped expectations, while revenue from YouTube ads, cloud computing and Alphabet's "other bets" unit all came in lower than anticipated, according to data from FactSet and Refinitiv.</p><p>Alphabet reported Q2 EPS of $1.21, $0.07 worse than the analyst estimate of $1.28. </p><p>Revenue for the quarter came in at $69.69 billion versus the consensus estimate of $70.04 billion.</p><p></p></body></html>","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

VIX is a real-time index that represents the market expectation for near-term volatility in the S&P500 index.Investors and traders have long used VIX as a measure of the level of risk, fear or stress in the market.The iPath S&P 500 VIX Short-Term Futures ETN (VXX) is a volatility exchange traded note (ETF) and behaves differently to a regular ETF. VXX typically sees large price increase when the S&P500 tanks. However, most of the time it slowly but surely drops in price.
