prl options, page-5

Yes the use of options does depend on ones risk profile. Personally I only take limited positions ie a few grand tops with options, and to only buy in when they are selling for next to nothing (well out of the money) and likely to appreciate into the money because of the company fundamentals, like what Im seeing with PRL. If things go well you still make a killing, otherwise you just lose a small amount. As tempting as it is I dont "trade" them, as the volatility means you can easily lose your money very quickly.
