- Comment from Tom -Let’s be honest. If any of us had size bitcoin we would have sold out ages ago and probably be kicking ourselves right now.
- Question from JohnnyBananas -Quick question, if you buy a put option and the strike price is $5 and the stock drops to $3, is it still worth $ even if it’s 3$ under – even though my strike price is 5$?? So if the stock price is $7 drop to 5(strike), but end up going to 3, my option is worth ~$4? So I don’t have to sell if I reach my strike price? Is this the same with call options? What confuses me is the strike$. #learning
