What is the floor option?
Floor option refers to option contracts traded in some financial markets, which is different from traditional exchange options. On-site options are traded among traders, rather than through the central exchange.

The trading rules of floor options may vary from exchange to exchange and contract, but usually include the following elements:

Basic assets: The basic assets of floor options can be various financial assets such as stocks, indexes and foreign exchange.

Trading direction: floor options can be bought and sold as call options or put options.

Exercise price: the exercise price is the price at which the option purchaser can buy or sell the underlying assets on the expiration date.

Expiration date: On-site options usually have a specific expiration date, and when they expire, the options will be automatically executed or invalidated.

Royalty: You need to pay royalties when buying on-site options, and the amount of royalties depends on the price of options, exercise price, expiration date and other factors.

Leverage effect: floor options usually have a high leverage effect, enabling investors to participate in larger transactions with less capital.
