Crude Oil Options on Futures
Crude Oil options on futures open the door to a host of versatile,
economical trading strategies; by using options alone, or in combination
with futures contracts, strategies can be found to cover virtually
any risk profile, time horizon, or cost consideration.
Options on
Crude Oil futures provide:
-
A limit on potential loss to the buyer
-
The ability to hedge cash
and futures positions against an adverse price direction
without foregoing the benefits of favorable price
movements
-
The availability of hedging insurance at many
different levels of cost and degrees of protection.
-
A means
for businesses and investors to act aggressively or conservatively
on views about the direction and
volatility of prices for energy,
precious metals, copper, and aluminum.
Because
the underlying instrument of an options contract is a futures
contract for a specific commodity,
market
participants can use options
to cover themselves against volatile swings
in futures prices, just as futures can be used to
protect against
volatile moves in the prices
of the underlying physical commodities. The
Exchange offers options on all major futures contracts:
light, sweet crude
oil; Brent crude
oil; heating oil; unleaded gasoline; natural
gas; coal; gold; silver; platinum; copper; and aluminum.
