How to Buy Options in Angel Broking?
Buying an option. In an option contract, two traders of different sentiments (one bearish and one bullish) enter a contract and decide to execute it on a particular day and a predetermined price.
In the case of a call option, when you buy an option, that means that you are bullish on that particular stock.
Therefore you pay the premium. When it comes to the put option, the seller in that case becomes the put option buyer.
This is because, in the case of a put option, the seller gives the premium as he/she has a bearish outlook of the market.
So in simple terms, the option buyer pays the premium to the option seller.

Your order will be successfully placed.
How to Sell Options in Angel Broking?
Now, similar to buying options, you can also sell options. Option sellers generally enter the market to make a profit from the holdings they own.
They tend to make a profit from the premium by assuming the price of the asset to remain the same or move opposite to the option buyer.
In the case of call options, the seller receives the premium so is the seller of that option contract.
But in the case of a put option, the buyer becomes the seller, because he/she is the one who receives the premium. Now let us quickly have a look at how you can sell options in Angel Broking.

What’s the basic difference between buying and selling option is the Angel Broking option selling margin.
