With options, you can replicate the behavior of a stock using much less capital.
It’s called a
synthetic stock: you buy an ATM call and sell an ATM put at the same strike price.

πŸ” Real example with TLT (20+ year Treasury Bonds):
TLT shares trading at $88; Cost of 100 shares by direct purchase $8,800 while Synthetic: $34
Same exposure, 259 times more efficient!

This strategy is ideal for those who already trade stocks.
It allows you to free up capital, manage risk, and trade with more flexibility.
