While stocks are pretty common, you must have heard of options too. Options, like foreign exchange or futures are forms of securities that you can invest and trade in the stock market. Options are considered based on normal stocks.

Very much like futures, an option gives you the right, but not the obligation, to buy an underlying stock at a specified price at a specified date in the future. You earn a profit if the stock’s market value rises above the price by which you acquired your contract upon the agreement’s expiry. If the stock’s market value drops, then you lose your premium.
