Section 1 is on Call Options 

  Most people learning Options for the first time face too much jargon and complex language. This course use real-world examples (buying a house) to explain how a Call Option (Section 1) works in real life. This example should make it absolutely clear what a Call Option is in step-by-step details. The course first defines what Options are, and in particular, what a Call Option is. It explains the differences between Option buyers and sellers, and the differences in their risk and reward profile. Several basic Options concepts like At-the-money, Out-of-the-money, and In-the-Money Options, and Risk Graphs are also introduced in this course. The profit and loss graphs for all three types of Options are explained in clear terms using AAPL Options. 

  Section 2 is on Put Options.  

  The Put Option is the ultimate "protector" of your portfolio, and in this course you can learn how Put Options work. It is the exact opposite of a Call Option. Put Options increase in value when the value of a stock or index drops in price. We define what a Put Option, and just like we did in the Call Option, we consider a real-world example of a Put Option. Fortunately, we have excellent examples of Put Options in real life - when we buy Insurance for our car or home, we are actually buying a Put Option. This example should make it absolutely clear what a Put Option is. The course looks at buyer and seller perspectives in a Put Option transaction, and analyzes the breakeven, and profit and loss profiles, all using the real world example first. Finally, just like the Call Option section, AAPL Options are studied in detail to understand how Put Options work. 

  The last lecture is a recap of the four basic Options strategies (Buying a Call, Selling a Call, Buying a Put, and Selling a Put). This part is usually challenging to newcomers, so this is explained in detail with tricks and tips on how to remember this instantly until you've become very familiar with all the four Options strategies. 

  Section 3 - Using Stock and Options combo strategies for stock investors. 

  In this section, three creative strategies are outlined for Stock investors to combine Options into their portfolio strategies. 

1. Use Options to buy Stock at prices that are far lower than what the stock is currently trading for
