From: Tang
Congratulations for Taking Action!
In this report, we will be giving you a brief introduction to Options.
On a fundamental background, there are 2 core questions on money: (1) How much can I make? (2) How fast can I make it (the velocity of money)?
The reason for trading options is to gain a higher velocity of money. For the same timeframe and stock market circumstances, options allow us to leverage our resources to get more money faster.
This brief report on Options and the Velocity of Money intends to demonstrate how options can be a more superior tool to stocks when it comes to velocity of money.
My hope is that when you own the The Secret Blue Print of Options Trading, you will have a more complete road map that outlines a simple and effective way for you to trade options to get you to your financial goals faster.
Remember, when it comes to money, its not only how much, but how fast as well.
Warmest Regards Tang

1. Stocks There are 2 ways to make money using stocks: (a) Buy low, sell high (b) Sell high, buy low
Example 1 - Buy Low Sell High: Buy 100 shares of Apple at $ 99.27 (invest $9,927) Sell 100 shares of Apple at $120 (get $12,000) Profit =$2,073 ROI =2,073 / 9,927 =21%

2. Options
Options are: (1) Standardized Contracts based on (2) an Underlying Stock. It is (3) a Derivative Product with (4) a Limited Life.
Stocks are not the same as Options
Stocks Options Investment in Real Company Standardized contracts Value of Stock backed by Companys Assets Value of Option depends on current stock price Indefinite Life Limited life Life depends on Companys life Life depends on Expiration Month
Options are standardized contracts. Every option is standardized to control 100 shares of stock. This gives options a leveraging effect. So when we buy 4 option contracts at $10 each, we invest $4,000 (4 contracts x $10 per option x 100 shares per option contract).
In an options standardized contract, a third party called the O.C.C. (Options Clearing Corporation) steps in: The buyer buys from the OCC, while ... The seller sells to the OCC The buyer and the seller does not deal directly with one another since the OCC is their point of contact and contract. The OCC is the regulatory body which manages the options expiration date.

Sample Option Table for Apple (nc (AAPL) Source: Optionsxpress 2009 Tang www.OptionsLearn.com 6 All Rights Reserved The Secret Blue Print of Options Trading 3. Call Options
There are 2 types of options: (a) Call Options (b) Put Options
When we buy a call option: Buyer pays a premium (to own the call option). Buyer of call has the right, but not the obligation, to buy the stock at the agreed strike price Buyer has only got this right until the expiration date Buyer loses this right after the expiration date
When we buy call options: If the underlying stock price goes up, we make money. If the underlying stock price goes down, we lose money.
Example 3 - Buy Call Options:
AAPL is at $99.27. We buy 90 Strike Call @ $12 (invest $1,200)
(1) Say AAPL stock goes up to $120 (increase of $20 approx) 90 Strike Call is now @ $32 ($12 +$20) (get $3,200) Profit =$2,000 ROI =2,000 / 1,200 =167%
(2) But If AAPL goes down to $80, 90 Strike Call reduce in value to $4 (approximate price)
This concept is illustrated below.
