- For example, the market price of a stock is 10 yuan per share. One can purchase an option contract, agreeing that it may be entitled to purchase the stock at a price of, for example, 11 yuan per share for a certain period of time.
- If the stock price really reaches 11 yuan or more, such as 13 yuan, on the agreed date or within the agreed date, then the contract holder can purchase the stock within the agreed amount at about 11 yuan instead of the market price of 13 yuan.
- If the stock price falls below 11 yuan or more, such as 9 yuan, on the agreed date or within the agreed date, then the contract holder can ignore the option contract and wait for it to expire slowly. The contract holder's loss is only the purchase That part of the contract.
