Options Example
 


(We will use Mr Verma as an example over here.)

Lets say we go for December options.In Mr Verma's trader terminal he see's Satyam December Call option on 1st DEC 2004.Satyam is quoting at 410 in cash market and Mr Verma is bullish on Satyam as he think's due to bounce back in Dollars, Satyam will move up and so his target for satyam in cash market is 440.So what will he do?? will he buy a call or a put?
He should and will buy a CALL.Since his target is 440 he will buy a Call of strike price 440 which is quoting at Rs6.The lot size for the option is 1200, so his cost goes out to be Rs1200 x Rs6 = Rs7200.
So what did he do? Since he was bullish on Satyam, so he bought 1 Lot Satyam DEC OPTION CALL @ STIKE PRICE 440.

Now when Satyam touches Rs440 the call touches Rs16.So he made a profit of Rs10, Rs10 x 1200 = Rs12,000. Mr Verma made a profit of Rs12,000.
He should Sell Satyam option DEC CALL of 440 at Rs16 and book his profit.

What happens if Satyam corrects? If satyam corrects and falls below Rs410 at which it is quoting, then the call will also fall there is full possibility that the call might come down to Rs3 or even Rs1.50 if the correction is heavy.In this case Mr Verma will loose money.

The options can also be kept till the expiry or settlement date which also happens the same day when futures expiry occurs, means on the 3rd week on Thursday.

(Mr Verma is a hypothetical trader, just to make you understand our example)
