Option strategy that will be profitable if the underlying security rises in value moderately. A bull spread can be executed either by put or call options. If the bull spread is executed through a put option, it is called a bull put spread. If it is executed through a call option, it is called a bull call spread. Buying a spread is also known as a "bull spread" Both bull call spreads and bull put spreads are common vertical spread options strategies. A bull call spread involves buying a call option with a lower exercise price and premium than the option that will be sold. For example, if you buy a call option for stock XYZ at a strike price of $60 and a premium of $200, you will get a bull spread if you sell a call on the same stock with a $70 strike price and a premium of $100. With bull call spreads, it is necessary that both call options have the same expiration date.
A exchange rule whereby the official bidding price for a cash commodity is competitively established at the end of each trading day and held until the opening of the exchange the following trading day. The call rule attempts to reduce overnight volatility by ensuring commodity prices begin trading near the previous day's closing bid.
A transaction that is used when exercising employee stock options (ESO). Essentially, what you do here is borrow enough money from your broker to exercise the options. You then simultaneously sell enough shares to pay for the purchase, taxes, and broker commissions. What you are doing is technically called buying on margin. The brokerage lets you buy on margin in this case because they know there will be a quick repayment. The advantage of this technique is you don't need the cash on hand.
A type of option for which actual physical delivery of the security is not required, due to the high costs of transport, or simply when the purchaser does not wish to hold the physical evidence of an investment. Cash is sent in the amount of the difference between the option strike price and the current value of the security at the exercise date. This type of option is most often exercised when delivery of the underlier is inconvenient or the cost of transport is a major consideration. For example, when purchasing company stock for individual ownership, delivery costs would be minimal. However, if purchasing an S&P Index option, the security will generally not be sent out as the costs of transport would be so high due to the large volume of transactions that would occur.
A type of option whose payoff is set to a specified fixed price if the final asset price is below the strike price; if not, the payoff is set to zero. Cash-or-Nothing options are typically european style options.

A type of option which is always settled in cash. Upon exercise, the net value to the involved parties are calculated and a cash payment is made to settle the difference. This option is advantageous for investors who want to capture movements in stock prices only, and not be required to enter a position following the exercise of an option. For example, let's say you purchase a cash-based call option contract with a strike price of $55. You exercise the option when the underlying stock price reaches $60 per share. Since one contract is for one hundred shares, the net value to you is $500 ( (60-55) x 100 ). In this case, you will receive $500 in cash, instead of being required to purchase 100 shares of stock for $55.
A type of exotic option that consists of a call option on a put option. Essentially, a caput gives the holder the right to purchase another option. This type of option is also known as a "compound option". The holder of a caput option has the right to purchase a specific put option in the event that the price of the underlying asset declines. The disadvantage of a caput option is that it only trades over the counter, so it is not as easy to get into a position with caput options as with regular vanilla options.
