How can Exchange Traded Options build your wealth?
Income producing
Option strategies can be structured for rising, falling or sideways markets – each carrying its own risks, and none guaranteeing a profit.
Benefit from leverage
Ability to make a higher return from a smaller initial outlay – noting leverage works both ways, magnifying losses as well as gains. Gain greater exposure to the underlying stock and benefit from price movements in the stock, with the risk rising alongside the exposure.
Hedging
Hedging strategies can reduce uncertainty and limit losses – at a cost, whether that is the premium paid for protection or upside forgone.
Greater market exposure
As the initial outlay for options is less, investors can diversify their portfolios and gain a broader market exposure.
Who should invest in Exchange Traded Options?
Options can be suited to a variety of investors, from those who understand trading and the concept of leverage, to the savvy investor wishing to protect their existing assets.
Shrewd Investor
Understands markets and uses the stability in different sectors to generate a more immediate income than that which would be possible by just holding the underlying. Requires advice to identify the sector and potential gain.
Experienced investor
Has an existing share portfolio and requires advice as to how best protect it.
