Option

An option gives the holder the right – but not the obligation – to buy an asset (commodity, equity, and so on) at a set price within an agreed time frame.

A buy option is called a "call", a sell option a "put". The agreed upon price is called the "strike price". A specific date is called the "exercise date".
