Because you can long puts and short calls.

>> No.18404569

>>18404288
short means you're selling, long means you're buying, puts and calls are two different types of options contracts, a call option is a contract between you and the writer of the contract that gives you the right to buy a certain asset at a predetermined price in the future, it's a bet that the price of the asset will go up, options writers make money buy selling you that right to buy for a fee (called the premium), for example oil costs piss right now, but if you expect the price of oil to go up then you would buy call options on oil, when the contract expires you get to buy oil from the writer of the contract for old piss price and sell on the open market for the high price, a call option is a contract that gives you the right to buy low from a counterparty and sell high on the open market, that's not usually how options are actually settled but you could settle them this way if you want, a put is the same thing but it lets you sell high and buy low instead, it's a bet that the price will go down in the future, note that options contracts merely give you the right to buy or sell, they do not oblige you to sell, similar contracts that create an obligation to buy or sell are called futures or forward contracts

I fucking hate it when I ask what are calls and puts and these boomer niggers start giving me the investopedia copy paste about calls giving you a right to buy a certain asset at some point in time and blablabla nigger give me the fucking variables on when it will make me money and how much and when it will dump by and how much so I can calculate the percentages. Like how the fuck can you make 700% gainz when it rises just 10% like wtf is that all about you fucking boomer niggers.

>> No.18406223

>>18406186
hey bro, I was like you
so first, read those things and over time the language will start to settle in
read about the greeks
next, just go fucking buy one and see what happens
it all starts to click then
then you can go watch khan academy videos and the language will be a little more familiar

and remember, bankroll management is more important than anything - you can literally just buy randomly and hope for the best, as long as you don't fuck up your bankroll
