Easy way to purchase options?
Discussion
Is there a simple way to purchase small amounts of options? If I think a particular currency / commodity might go up or down a lot over x years, is there a way to buy an option with small amounts, say £100?
I want to buy some very out of the money money call options, hopefully for not very much money (but I guess the price is not known to me right now so who knows) and if I’m wrong, the £100 is lost. If I am right then the £100 turns into a lot more. I can afford to loose the £100.
Whereas if I invest in the commodity etc, I could loose a lot or make a lot, I’d prefer a one way bet.
Is this possible for a small retail investor without getting hit by a silly percentage of fees?
