Hi All,

I have a doubt regarding option trading in stock futures. When i have a call option and when it is in the money, there is no trade in that strike price. In this case, is there any possibility for me to book profit even when there is no trade in that particular strike price? Seniors please guide me.

Regards
S. Sethuraman

Hi,
Someone should be ready to buy your offer. If no one is willing

to buy at the price you offer you have to wait for the buyer.

Better to choose the active price range and high volatility.

Happy trading,

regards,
Kavidhev

In such cases where there are no buyers or buyers are at lower than the 'in the money amount' you can always 'exercise' your illiquid call.
The stock calls can be exercised at any time and calls on Indices can only be exercised on the clearing day or day of expiry.

Come on Sethu. You are trading in Options, but doesn't know even the very basic term in Options. Kindly learn some tutorials at least.

Best of luck,
Praveen.
