Nee daggara $6000 unte

Case 1: Buy 1 Call Option contract at the SP of $60 for $60 premium .

             So, you are controlling 100 shares of AAPL.

             If AAPL price goes up by $60, your profit will be 100* $60 = $6000. 

             And your account balance will be $6000 + $6000 = $12000

             If AAPL price goes down to $60, your loss will be 100 * (-$60) = -$6000

            And your account balance will be $6000 - $6000 = 0

Case 2: Buy 50 stocks of AAPL

             If AAPL goes up by $60, profit will be 50 * $60 = $3000, Account balance will be $9000

             If AAPL goes down by $60, loss will be -$3000, Account balance will be $3000

So, Options konte, account zero aipoye chances untayi. Stocks konte, you will atleast have something in your account that can go up after a year or two.

Plus dividend.

 

One way you can make more money in both cases is selling covered calls...will make 20 to 30$ with patience and discipline every year

Why you think I don’t own the stock and more risky?? My plan is to exercise the option in 2023 for the lock rate of 60$.. invest less now for current rate and take more profit in future instead of investing more and taking same profit.. 

issue enti ante:

1) what if the stock under performs??

2) nee strike price kanna low unte all ur investment is useless

3) company is delisted

4) 2023 varaku your investment is locked assuming u don’t sell the options until then.. mean while u can invest in something and sell based ur profits

Regarding 4), the investment is not locked. It can sold anytime provided there are buyers ready to buy at that strike price. For popular stocks, it is not an issue.

Regarding 3) Company delist aithe, stocks ki kooda same problem kadha? But alaanti risky companies meedha its better not to trade options.

Just example cheppa and i also said assuming you don’t sell it ani. Yes, you can sell it if buyers are available but even for mid level companies one bad news will drive away potential buyers in such case even if u wanted to sell at the current price u can’t 

Lock annadi nee initial investment..

If the stock goes through ups and downs for the next 2 years and is still around $120, then you will lose $6K... there are several stocks which stay at the same price for years..

You wont lose $6k since the strike price is $60. You can still get that difference of 120-60=60 back per share. You will lose only the premium. If you are buying deep in the money, then premium cost is almost negligible, like $1 to $2 in some cases.

You don’t lose if it is at 120 since your strike is 60 you can buy stock at 60

there is very less probability that you can buy a $60 call for $60 when the stock is trading at $120
