Derivatives & Options

Option Premium

The price you pay to buy an option — its whole cost, and the most a buyer can lose. It splits into intrinsic value (real, in-the-money worth) and time value (what you pay for the chance things move your way).

Where this is taught

Definitions are the trailer. These free levels turn Option Premium into something you play — one bite-size lesson, with worked examples, a quiz and XP.
