Option Buyers vs. Sellers

In every option trade, there’s a buyer and a seller (writer). The buyer pays a premium for the right to exercise the contract, while the seller earns that premium but takes on potential obligations. Buyers face limited loss (premium paid) and unlimited profit potential (for calls). Sellers, however, face limited profit (premium received) but unlimited potential loss if the market moves against them. Therefore, option writing demands experience, strong risk control, and margin support. Understanding this balance of risk and reward is central to effective option trading.
