Suppose you want to invest in Gold Option and your view is that its price will increase in next 2 to 3 months. You buy a Call Option at a strike price of Rs 30,000 by paying a premium of Rs 100.
The profit is unlimited in a Long Call Commodity Option while the risk is limited to the premium paid i.e. Rs 100.
Scenarios-
When the strike price of the Call option at expiry is less than Rs 30,000. You will allow the option to expire worthless and lose the premium of Rs 100 paid.
When the strike price of the Call option at expiry is above Rs 30,000. Your trade will break even at Rs Rs 30,000 + Rs 100= Rs 30,100. Anything above the break-even is your profit.
