Uncovered Options Trading System
Trader: Trader is a merchant involved in cash commodities or a professional speculator who trades for his own account and who typically holds exchange trading privileges.
Close: Close is the exchange-designated period at the end of the trading session during which all transactions are considered made "at the close."
Offset: Offset (also referred to as Liquidation, closing out and cover) is the liquidation of a purchase of futures contracts through the sale of an equal number of contracts of the same delivery month, or liquidating a short sale of futures through the purchase of an equal number of contracts of the same delivery month.
Ring: Ring is a circular area on the trading floor of an exchange where traders and brokers stand while executing futures trades. Some exchanges use pits rather than rings.

Naked options trading is very risky - many people lose money trading them. It is recommended contacting your broker or investment professional to find out about trading risk and margin requirements before getting involved into trading uncovered options.
