CE means call option,instead of buying a stock you can buy call option.
PE means put option ,instead of selling a stock you can buy a put option.

Options are for proffetional traders.

CE is call option and PE is put option
Consider you are anticipating Nifty goes 8800 in coming week which is long
Now you buy CE 8700 with premium value or Sell PE with margin value.

After a week / expiry nifty stays above 8700 both position in profit.
or if it stay below 8700 you both position in Loss but buy option loss is
limited to premium loss only but sell option is theoretically infinite loss

You can close the position at any time. Option value is involved with
lots of variable like time decay, theta, gamma etc..,

In simple word, Call option for long or bull market and
Put option for down or bear market. Put is also call called option writing
which required marginal amount to write
