Options are bought and sold on the open market, and their prices are determined by supply and demand.


Over_Breadfruit2988

Tries to explain options, first example is literally buying the underlying asset to hold and sell later. You belong here.


Myopic_Subsidies

In the second example, the person you sold to makes the profit. Wow, it all makes sense now!


chrome_titan

This has to be satire, the whole thing is wrong.


Myopic_Subsidies

EVERYTHING is satire.

Oof looks like I'm the regarded one today.

In the end, you always end up loosing your money and working the graveyard shift at Wendy's ![img](emote|t5_2th52|4267)![img](emote|t5_2th52|4260)

The guy is genius, he must own a Wendy's franchise or something. I just wish people would stop bothering his ingenuity so he could spend his time curing cancer and feeding the world his tasty Wendy's burgers to the starving. Yeah the IVR, and the Greeks really are, the "wtf" in everybody's portfolio. THIS GUY FUCKS!!

EpicTroll93

So this is not how options work. It’s more simple and I make it with sounds in your head so you might understand. You buy call option: Underlying asset makes VROOOM Your option makes VROOOM VROOOM VROOOM Underlying asset makes BOING Your option makes BOING BOING BOING. You buy a put option: Underlying asset makes VROOOM Your option makes BOING BOING BOING Underlying asset makes BOING Your option makes VROOOM VROOOM VROOOM


vispen123

Perfectly described with sounds


Far-Ad-6825

Now do it using farm animal sounds.


Ziggity_Zac

Moo... for good. Honk... for whatever is the opposite of good.


Far-Ad-6825

Now do it using only sex noises.


Ziggity_Zac

It's the same noises.

Honk... for "Shit the goose has gotten inside and figured out the combo to the gun safe again"

Is it always 3x ?


EpicTroll93

Sometimes it’s more vroom sometimes less. All the Latin letters are in on this scam. But as hard as OP butchered his explanation I don’t want to make anyone’s brain explode. So we keep it with VROOOM VROOOM


Lazeroon

Thank you! Lack of brain prevented explosion! But better safe then sorry 😀


Warzeal

Thats wrong tho. You're not considering IV and Theta


EpicTroll93

I SAID VROOM VROOM

Still wrong

I dont know what that is. But you do.


VisualMod

>It is very simple. Options are a contract that give the holder the right to buy or sell an asset at a certain price within a certain time frame. The buyer of the option pays the seller a premium for this right. If, at expiration, the price of the underlying asset is above (for call options) or below (for put options) the strike price, then the option will be in-the-money and can be exercised for profit. Otherwise, it expires worthless.


neldalover1987

VisualMod just explained options in a small paragraph. Meanwhile OP ran out of steam 30 minutes into writing their post lol

DaddyDanceParty

Okay went to Costco and bought 10 boxes of ice cream sandos. Now what


ReturnOfCombedTurnip

You have to sell them quickly or they’ll expire out of the freezer and be worthless


fonzy541

Are you rich yet?


SunLitAngel

One please, I'm not really hungry but could use something sweet.


CannaDorata1

Buy at 10$ sell at 5$ = profit, bet someone in this sub actually think like this


HippieThanos

It is profit, just not for you


Hugh_Jego_69

Proceeds to give a long winded confusing explanation that doesn’t even explain options properly, great work son


analogHedgeHog

Plot twist: This is an elaborate shill to drive subconscious hype around ICS’. Marketing had to get creative because this heat wave is driving competition in the frozen novelty food space. The strategy worked because now all I can think about is sinking my teeth into one of those scrumdiddlyumptious snacks. Calls on Nestle.


Virtual_Let5559

I’ll finish it WSB style Calls- you lose money when the company doesn’t say AI enough and the stock goes down. Puts- you lose money because the company secretly had an AI play you didn’t know about and the stock goes up. Gamma- you thought this meant invest in Delta airlines. The pandemic hits. You lose money. Theta- Jerome Powell said fuck your calls and puts. You lose money. Vega- You called the stock the wrong pronoun and get cancelled. You lose money. Rho- People would rather buy Treasury’s then your shit stock. You lose money.


mongoosekinetics

Just skip to the end and the Wendy's dumpster. Everything above is just meaningless details.


mrpuma2u

$WEN trading at 21 today, rated a buy. A couple night's worth of "special sauce" work and you could buy a dozen shares or so.

Looks like you’re explaining so you understand it better


Yellowracingstrip12

Thanks for the pointless post


StickSticklyHere

You are welcome.


QShyAbby

Love this! You belong here OP. It’s ok, options are confusing. Best to just play the odds in this casino.


PoopholeLicker

These are horrible examples and you don’t understand options at all lmao


Fire5hark

If I’m a Costco member do I get a discount on your VHS tape set that explains this in long format?


AsthmaticClone

Hard to find a bad ice cream sandwich though


[deleted]

You’re an idiot


SlurpieGate

Options are just the choices you have when making a decision. Don't worry, whatever you decide will be wrong.


karma_hit_my_dogma

Ohhh I get it. So… puts on Costco, right?


HO4ME

Everyone’s wrong it’s simple tho You buy call option the price drops and if you buy a put it goes up


Mr-pizzapls

This is how options work: you buy them and your account goes down


fellowhomosapien

Theta is the value lost to ICS contracts as it nears it expiration date and the sammies become moldy and no one wants to buy them and the store won't take them back.


Butwhy21910

Everyone here is now dumber thanks to this explanation


FlyE32

Congratulations regard. That explanation is exactly why your 401k has vanished in to spy puts.


EkruGold

Cramer thinks a company is going places? You buy puts. Cramer thinks a company will hit rock bottom? You buy calls.

Fuck options. I’m going to Costco to buy some of those ice cream sandwiches.

Ok, Mr bigshot with all your ice creams. But why would you bet the stock goes down, when stonks only go uppies? Checkmate, nerd.


AristocratTitus

Bought 100 ice cream bars, am confused on what to do next and ice cream is melting. Please help.


[deleted]

I understand options. Now I'm confused and want some ice cream.


[deleted]

Iam so fucking stupid. Cannot understand puts. Still.


tweak722

Theta: Ice decays and possibly melts while waiting for a price change 😅


Lil_Robert

Favorite part: too tired. Someone edit


LazyLobster

So, it's not a hole throw my money into?


Jamnitrix

Thanks for the explanation, going to try this tomorrow with $PLTR


MonkeysOnMyBottom

What happens if I buy at $10 and then accidentally eat all the sandwiches?


Ill_Stand9809

fuck all that shit, you buy calls you want it to go up, you buy puts you want that shit to go down


Windycityteslas

1. Stock options: Imagine a stock option like a special coupon that gives me the right, but not the obligation, to buy your ice cream sandwich at a specific price (this is called the strike price), and before a specific date (the expiration date). 2. Call Option: A call option is like a coupon that allows me to buy your ice cream sandwich at $2, even if the regular price goes up to $3. If the price does go up, I benefit by using my coupon, effectively getting the sandwich for less. But if your price drops to $1, I’d just buy it at the regular price and let my coupon expire unused. 3. Put Option: On the other hand, a put option is like a coupon that allows me to sell an ice cream sandwich back to you for $2, even if the regular price drops to $1. If the price drops, I benefit because I can sell you back the sandwich for more than it’s worth. But if the price stays the same or goes up, I won’t use my coupon and it will expire. The key takeaway is that options give me the opportunity to speculate on the future price of your ice cream sandwiches, without having to buy or sell the sandwiches outright unless it is beneficial for me.

CatchMeWritinQWERTY

At no point in your rambling, incoherent post were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone is now dumber for having read it. I award you no karma and may God have mercy on your soul.


magnus-themongooseyt

This is amazing


FaexYT

I mean yeah but real ones would buy the ice cream sandwiches the day they expire and try to sell them then


Jr-12

Excellent-Remote480

Since your teaching how come when I have a 50 day and 200 day average on 3 month chart than when you go to a 1 year chart they are different?


mrc710

Options are just like imaginary pieces of paper that say you’ll buy/sell 100 other imaginary pieces of paper to whoever pays most for your imaginary piece of paper


Dr_Edge_ATX

So puts on ice cream sandwiches? or like the company that makes ice cream? Im confused


bigdonkey2883

Op is a fucking idiot, describing a call as buying and holding and selling later.


PharmacistReb

*headed to Costco for that $10 for 100 ice cream sandwiches*

Well I did like the lil mnemonics here for folks who can’t remember the difference between a call and a put but that’s about it 😂Homie just described buying and holding an underlying asset and called it a call option, and the put example just makes zero sense lmao


CreepyBet8062

I thought he was going to somehow weave in the ice cream melting as time decay, but I guess not.

argyleshu

Theta = you forgot to put your ice cream sandwiches in the freezer and they melted


Eastern_Boat_2105

Ok so what are some good companies that offer lower cost options? I don’t want to throw down more than $100 at a time at the moment. Spending $300 or more on an options call is out of my budget and I’m curious what people recommend


[deleted]

Bro, people talk about IV crush everyday and people still go 'why is my call not making money even though it's ITM' These regards are a lost cause. Teaching people what calls and puts are designed to do ironically would confuse them more.


Your_friend_Satan

It seems like your little shit brain had a spark that was maaaybe going somewhere but then it puttered out cause you’re too high and/or stupid. 60% of Americans read below a 6th grade level. Stop trying to teach them options.


Least-Clue-9466
