  • You just explained that beautifully and now I understand.

  • If you are the stock owner, you would want to buy a put option, as insurance against price depreciation! What this put buying does is give you the opportunity to make money on the option trade itself by buying with plenty of time before expiration and letting you make a profit with the increased value of the put, as the stock price falls!

  • pls draw a graph or something and an example with figures and then its easier to understand

  • you really rock with your clear explanations! Thanks!!!

  • Graph / Visual example would have helped.

  • You're hedged but you still get the dividends.

  • The Put Option you are talking about you dont actually own the stock.

    How does it work if you own the stock and sell the put option, thanks
