By exercising an option you have purchased, you are choosing

7、 to take delivery of (call) or to sell (put) the underlying asset at the options strike price. Only option buyers have the choice to exercise an option. Option sellers, on the other hand, may experience having an option assigned to an option holder and subsequently exercised. Offsetting is a method

8、of reversing the original transaction to exit the trade. If you bought a call, you have to sell the call with the same strike price and expiration. If you sold a call, you have to buy a call with the same strike price and expiration. If you bought a put, you have to sell a put with the same strike p

9、rice and expiration. If you sold a put you have to buy a put with the same strike price and expiration. If you do not offset your position, then you have not officially exited the trade. If an option has not been offset or exercised by expiration, the option expires worthless. If you originally sold

10、 an option, then you want it to expire worthless because then you get to keep the credit you received from the option premium. Since an option seller wants an option to expire worthless, the passage of time is an option sellers friend and an option buyers enemy. If you bought an option, the premium

11、is nonrefundable even if you let the option expire worthless. As an option gets closer to expiration, it decreases in value. It is important to note that most options traded on U.S. exchanges are American style options. In essence, they differ from European options in one main way. American style op

12、tions can be exercised at any time up until expiration. In contrast, European style options can be exercised only on the day they expire. All the options of one type (put or call) which have the same underlying security are called a class of options. For example, all the calls on IBM constitute an o

13、ption class. All the options that are in one class and have the same strike price are called an option series.You can choose the following methods to exit an option position except to _. Aexercise the optionBpay the premiumCoffset a dealDlet it expire 7. Directions: There are three passages in this

14、section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them, there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should make the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the ANSWER SHEET by drawing a single line through the center. BSection One/BPassage 1 What

15、 determines the rate of exchange between currencies will be examined later in this book let, but first it is useful to consider the mechanics of international transactions. To enable a UK importer to pay his American supplier, for example, the facilities of two or more banks are used, firstly in han

16、dling the often complex documentation and secondly, through the foreign exchange market, in obtaining the currency required. At one time payments to and from other countries were made by bills of exchange; hence in part the term exchange rate, which was maintained even though other methods of paymen

17、t have largely superseded the bill of exchange. The British importer will probably need to pay his American supplier in dollars and his British bank can offer him several alternative methods of settlement. It can provide him with a bankers draft drawn in dollars. The bank is able to do this because

18、it will have an account with another bank ( called a correspondent bank) in an American city and it simply issues a dollar cheque or draft drawn on that account. The British importer can then send this draft by airmail to the supplier. Since there is a danger that the draft may be lost or fall into

19、the wrong hands, the safer and more normal method would be for the British bank to arrange for payment by mail transfer. Instructions are sent by airmail to the correspondent bank in the US to pay on behalf of its customer the required sum to the named recipient from the British banks dollar account
