Option Strategy - Protective Put

Option Strategy - Protective Put

Purchasing a protective put gives you the right to sell stock you already own at strike price A. Protective puts are handy when your outlook is bullish but you want to protect the value of stocks in your portfolio in the event of a downturn. They can also help you cut back on your antacid intake in times of market uncertainty.

Protective puts are often used as an alternative to stop orders. The problem with stop orders is they sometimes work when you don’t want them to work, and when you really need them they don’t work at all.
More Details

Many investors will buy a protective put when they’ve seen a nice run-up on the stock price, and they want to protect their unrealized profits against a downturn. It’s sometimes easier to part with the money to pay for the put when you’ve already seen decent gains on the stock.
