Options (education only)

No strikes or expiries — a framework for how traders might express the view. Options can expire worthless.

Direction: volatile · Style: Debit spread (defined risk) · Level: intermediate

Options can be very risky around big events because prices jump around before the news and drop sharply right after. Beginners should generally skip options for this event.
