It allows a stock trader to choose or diversify to manage risks and make a profit. Options trading requires a clear understanding of strategies and risk management in carrying out a trade. However, it is carried out based on strategies that help an investor stay protected, leverage funds, and make more income in the stock market. These strategies are complex and complicated, but we will make you understand the best option trading strategies, beginners&#8217; option trading strategies, and the best books on options strategies for beginners to use.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"options-trading-strategies\"><strong>Options Trading Strategies<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>These are plans or technical analyses that guide a trader in buying and selling securities, stocks, etc. These strategies enable a trader to limit risk and maximize return at any point of the trade in the stock market. However, are tactics primarily designed to handle systemic risk, which is unavoidable yet can have a catastrophic effect on trade.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, a trader must conduct extensive market research on current market trends and patterns before making a trade. When creating a strategy, a trader should consult a broker-dealer to choose profitable trading instruments and manage trading operations.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"beginners-options-trading-strategies\"><strong>Beginners&#8217; Options Trading Strategies&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Option trading strategies for beginners are<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Buy call<\/li>\n<li>Buy put<\/li>\n<li>Covered Call<\/li>\n<li>Covered put<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 id=\"1-buy-call\">#1. <strong>Buy call<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;It is a bullish strategy that simply means buying on a call. This strategy is used when a trader suspects the market&#8217;s price movement is in an upward direction. Here, the trader is said to be bullish, so they place a call (long call or short) to make a profit.<\/p>\n<p>For example, gold is trading at $50. A trader is expecting the market price to move up, so he buys a <a href=\"https:\/\/businessyield.com\/business-strategies\/calendar-spread\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">call option<\/a> of gold at the contract of 1 carat, having a strike price of $50. The cost is $50 and the premium is $50*1. Then, as the market price moves up from $50 to $90. He makes&nbsp; $250 at $80.<\/p>\n<p>Loss: The loss is the premium paid for the option. At any point between the strike price A and the break-even point, you will make a loss, although not the maximum loss.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\">\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Gold price @ expiration<\/td>\n<td>Net price<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>$350<\/td>\n<td>$90<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>$250<\/td>\n<td>$80<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>$150<\/td>\n<td>$70<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>$50<\/td>\n<td>$60<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>$0<\/td>\n<td>$55<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>-$50<\/td>\n<td>$50<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>-$50<\/td>\n<td>$40<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>-$50<\/td>\n<td>$30<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>-$50<\/td>\n<td>$20<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>-$50<\/td>\n<td>$10<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/figure>\n<h3 id=\"2-buy-put\"><strong>&nbsp;#2. Buy put<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;It is a bearish strategy used when a trader expects the market price direction to be in a downwards direction. The trader is said to be bearish, so he places a put as a right for the buyer to sell his stock at a predetermined price. Meanwhile, the risk is limited on the upside if the underlying stock rallies.<\/p>\n<p>For example, gold is trading at $50. A trader X is expecting the market price direction to move down, so he buys a <a href=\"https:\/\/businessyield.com\/bs-investment\/put-options\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">put option<\/a> on gold at the contract of 1 carat with a strike at $50. The cost is $50 and the premium is $50*1. Then, as the market price moves down from $50 to $90, he makes $150 for $70.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\">\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Gold price @ expiration<\/td>\n<td>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Net price<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>-$50<\/td>\n<td>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; $90<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>-$50<\/td>\n<td>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; $80<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>-$50<\/td>\n<td>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; $70<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>-$50<\/td>\n<td>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; $60<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>-$50<\/td>\n<td>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; $50<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>&nbsp; $0<\/td>\n<td>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; $45<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>$50&nbsp;<\/td>\n<td>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; $40<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>$150<\/td>\n<td>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; $30<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>$250<\/td>\n<td>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; $20<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>$350<\/td>\n<td>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; $10<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/figure>\n<h3 id=\"3-covered-call\">#3. <strong>Covered call<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>This is a neutral strategy that is devised when a trader holds a share but expects a minor increase or decrease in the underlying stock price but is moderately bullish in the near term. Therefore, a trader sells a call option on a stock he owns.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, if the stock remains below the strike price at expiration, the call seller keeps it and can write another covered call. Meanwhile, if the stock rises above the strike price, the investor must sell the shares to the call buyer at the strike price.<\/p>\n<p>For example, if gold is trading at $60, and the trader already bought 1 lot of gold at $50. This strategy is applied by selling a call option strike at $70 @ 5. The trader is not expecting the underlying price to cross $70.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\">\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Gold lot size<\/td>\n<td>Order type&nbsp;<\/td>\n<td>Strike&nbsp;<\/td>\n<td>Premium&nbsp;<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>5<\/td>\n<td>Buy underlying<\/td>\n<td>$50<\/td>\n<td>$50*5 (outflow)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>5<\/td>\n<td>Sell call<\/td>\n<td>$70<\/td>\n<td>$5&nbsp; (inflow)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/figure>\n<h3 id=\"4-covered-put\">#4. <strong>Covered Put<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>This is also a neutral strategy that is devised when traders holding shares expect a minor increase or decrease in the underlying stock price, but is moderately bearish in the near term.

To make a profit, an investor is to buy a call either long or short.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;However, if the market price goes the other way, the investor is at risk of making a loss. But there is an option to limit risk used by numerous investors when the asset price increase is moderate, which is the bull call spread strategy. The call spread strategy simply allows the investors to make the smallest profit and, at the same time, minimize their loss. Meanwhile, the investor has to purchase two call options, one with a higher strike price and the other with a lower strike price. One of its advantages is that a trader can join a position that gains from an increase in the price of the underlying securities while also controlling other critical aspects like the level of risk or the quantity of cash necessary.<\/p>\n<p>Other bullish options strategies are<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Long call&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/businessyield.com\/business-strategies\/short-put-option\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">short put<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Bull Call Spread<\/li>\n<li>Bull Put Spread<\/li>\n<li>Bull Ratio Spread<\/li>\n<li>Short Bull Ratio Spread<\/li>\n<li>Bull Butterfly Spread<\/li>\n<li>Bull Condor Spread<\/li>\n<li>Bull Call Ladder Spread<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 id=\"2-bearish-strategies\">#2. <strong>Bearish Strategies&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>This is a strategy used by investors when they expect the market price direction of an asset to fall downwards within a predetermined time. The investor monitors the market and makes a profit by purchasing a long put option for a high fall in price, but it&#8217;s risky if the market price direction goes otherwise.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>However, a bear spread is used to manage the risk of making a loss when the market price change rate is moderate. Other bearish options are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/businessyield.com\/finance-accounting\/long-put\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Long Put<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Short Call<\/li>\n<li>Bear Put Spread<\/li>\n<li>Bear Call Spread<\/li>\n<li>Bear Ratio Spread<\/li>\n<li>Short Bear Ratio Spread<\/li>\n<li>Bear Butterfly Spread<\/li>\n<li>Bear Put Ladder Spread<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 id=\"3-neutral-strategies\">#3. <strong>Neutral Strategies<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>This is a strategy employed when an investor expects a non-directional movement of an asset price. The direction is meant to maintain a uniform rise and fall movement within a determined range. However, a trader makes his gain based on market price volatility by selling various strike calls and putting options in the hopes that the stock will stay in a defined range. Meanwhile, it can be bullish volatility when the rise and fall direction of an asset price is high and bearish volatility when the rise and fall direction of an asset price is at its minimum. This is one of the options trading strategies for beginners.<\/p>\n<p>Neutral option strategies are&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Covered Call<\/li>\n<li>Covered Call Collar<\/li>\n<li>Covered Put<\/li>\n<li>Short Straddle<\/li>\n<li>Short Strangle<\/li>\n<li>Short Gut<\/li>\n<li>Calendar Call Spread<\/li>\n<li>Spread the word!<\/li>\n<li>Call Ratio Spread<\/li>\n<li>Put Ratio Spread<\/li>\n<li>Calendar Straddle<\/li>\n<li>Butterfly Spread<\/li>\n<li>Condor Spread<\/li>\n<li>Albatross Spread<\/li>\n<li>Iron butterfly spread<\/li>\n<li>Iron Albatross Spread<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 id=\"4-stock-combination-strategy\">#4. <strong>Stock Combination Strate<\/strong>gy&nbsp;<\/h3>\n<p>This is a strategy that combines the put and call options on the same underlying asset.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>It is a technique in which a trader buys or sells two options with the same expiration date but different strike prices on the same underlying asset. However, on or before the expiration date, the combination approach allows you to profit from the difference in strike prices. It employs strategies such as the spread and straddle.<\/p>\n<p>While the phrase &#8220;combination&#8221; can refer to any collection of financial contracts, it&#8217;s most commonly associated with options. Traders frequently choose this approach because it reduces risk by delivering reward payoffs tailored to the trader&#8217;s risk tolerance. Therefore, it is not one of the options trading strategies for beginners.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;Furthermore, it can lower risk and benefit from alternatives like time expiration and market volatility. Examples of combinations are<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Collars<\/li>\n<li>Straddles<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 id=\"5-event-driven-strategy\">#5. <strong>Event-Driven Strategy<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>This is a strategy whereby traders capitalize on pricing inefficiencies caused by corporate events such as mergers, acquisitions, spin-offs, and bankruptcies.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;However, it is a strategy that focuses solely on temporary stock mispricing that occurs before or after a business event. Because it necessitates the essential skills to assess corporate events for successful implementation, it is most commonly utilized by private equity or hedge funds. Furthermore, takeovers, restructurings, bankruptcy, mergers and acquisitions, spinoffs, and many other business events are examples of corporate events. An event-driven approach takes advantage of a company&#8217;s stock price&#8217;s tendency to drop during a period of transition.<\/p>\n<p>Types of event-driven strategies are<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Merger Arbitrage&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li>Convertible Arbitrage<\/li>\n<li>Special Situations<\/li>\n<li>Distressed Investing<\/li>\n<li>Activist Investing<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"books-on-options-trading-strategies\"><strong>Books on Options Trading Strategies<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>There are numerous books written on options trading strategies, but the books listed below are the best.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"h-trading-options-for-dummies-by-joe-duarte\"><span id=\"trading-options-for-dummies-by-joe-duarte\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Trading-Options-Dummies-Joe-Duarte\/dp\/1118982630\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\"><strong>Trading Options for Dummies<\/strong> by Joe Duarte<\/a><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>This book was given that name since it was created for novices and anyone with little or no knowledge to grasp.
