Ja pareizi saprotu no tā tekstā, tad šīs opcijas ir tāda kā "apdrošināšanas polise" daudziem: The Nymex options, which give speculators the right to buy 1,000 barrels of oil in December, are becoming a favorite for traders even if they don't expect crude to reach $200 because they are a cheaper way to speculate than using futures contracts. Options expire worthless if crude fails to reach the `strike'' price, un tas ir bik citādāk. Ja nekļūdos.
