$Apple (AAPL.US)$ The options will not expire until a month later.
Bought a 167.5 call option. Now it is in the money, wondering if you will continue to hold or take profits?

  • istoleyourlunch : what about 170 call?

  • wantqq123 : I'm about the same as you. I have 165 calls that expire at the end of the month. Now consider selling call options to make some money.

  • thesunz OP wantqq123 : Are you planning to take it or take profit? I want to refer to your opinion

  • wantqq123 thesunz OP : I'll hold it and make some money by selling calls before it expires. For example, I sold 170 calls when Apple was 170 yuan. If the rights were exercised, I would buy them back with the call I had bought before. If I wasn't exercised, I earned rights money. If it drops a lot, just buy back the underlying stock; you won't lose money in any way.

  • thesunz OP wantqq123 : What is the meaning of selling 170 calls? I'm sorry, I'm still studying

  • wantqq123 thesunz OP : A sell call is the opposite of a buy call. If you buy Call, if you exercise the right, you buy 100 shares of Apple from someone else; if you sell Call, you need to sell 100 shares to the person who bought your Call when the right is exercised. You need to pay a premium to buy a call, and you want to exercise your rights. When you sell a call, someone else pays you a royalties; you don't want to be exercised.

  • thesunz OP wantqq123 : Thank you for your answers, how can I find sales calls on Moomoo? All I see is call, just put

  • wantqq123 thesunz OP : Similarly, when you buy a call, you click to buy; if you sell a call, you sell it. However, the premise of selling a call is that you have the underlying stock in your hands; otherwise, the risk is huge. If it suddenly skyrocketed, you would lose a lot of money. For example, you sold 170 calls, and as a result, it went up to 180. If you don't have 100 shares in your hands, then you have to buy 100 shares for 180 yuan on the market and then sell them for 170 yuan, which is equivalent to losing 1,000 US dollars.

  • thesunz OP wantqq123 : Oooh. I see, thank you so much for the explanation, I learned.
    Can you see how much the premium is there? It's a bit difficult to figure it out on your own. I'm following you, can I ask you questions about options in the future?

  • wantqq123 thesunz OP : What you paid when you bought the call at the time was a premium, and the sale price was the same. Selling options is very risky. It's better to buy an option if you're not familiar with it. The biggest loss is the premium. The maximum loss of a selling call is theoretically unlimited.
