The popular misconception that 90% of all options expire worthless frightens investors into mistakenly believing that if they buy options, they'll lose money 90% of the time. But in actuality, the Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE) estimates that only about 30% of options expire worthless, while 10% are exercised, and the remaining 60% are traded out or closed by creating an offsetting position.

Call Buying Strategy
When you buy a call, you pay the option premium in exchange for the right to buy shares at a fixed price (strike price) on or before a certain date (expiration date). Investors most often buy calls when they are bullish on a stock or other security because it offers leverage.

For example, assume XYZ stock trades for $50. A one-month call option on the stock costs $3. Would you rather buy 100 shares of XYZ for $5,000 or would you rather buy one call option for $300 ($3 x 100 shares), with the payoff being dependent on the stock's closing price one month from now? Consider the graphic illustration of the two different scenarios below.

While both investments have unlimited upside potential in the month following their purchase, the potential loss scenarios are vastly different. Case in point: While the biggest potential loss on the option is $300, the loss on the stock purchase can be the entire $5,000 initial investment, should the share price plummet to zero.

The Bottom Line
Trading calls can be an effective way of increasing exposure to stocks or other securities, without tying up a lot of funds. Such calls are used extensively by funds and large investors, allowing both to control large amounts of shares with relatively little capital.
