Options trading can be a great way to participate in the market. You can trade options on WeBull, which means you'll need to sign up for an account and deposit funds into it. Once you've done all that, you're ready to sell options.

To open and execute an Options contract, follow these steps.

1. Making an Account

Create your account on WeBull. To do this, go to the website and click Open an Account at the top-right corner of the page. After that, follow these steps:

  • Enter your email address into the field like you would when signing up for any other online platform.
  • Enter your username and password in their respective fields and check if they are correct before proceeding.
  • If everything is correct, enter personal details such as name, date of birth and gender.
  • Select what type of account you want to open; this will determine how much money you need for trading options.

2. Account Verification

You can verify your account by uploading documents such as a driver's license, passport or national identity card. Once you complete this process successfully, your account status will change from Verification pending to Verified.

3. Filling Out the Options Agreement

After you create an account with WeBull and log in, you can choose to fill out a new contract or modify an existing one by clicking on Modify Contract.

You will need to agree to the terms of the contract offered by WeBull (Options Agreement). This agreement will explain how WeBull works and its policies regarding trades.

4. Depositing Funds

You can make deposits by bank wire transfer or credit card. Wire transfers are free, but they have a 10-day waiting period before your funds will be available for trading. If you use a credit card, your account will credit instantly, and you can begin trading immediately.

5. Option Exercise and Assignment

Exercise or assign the option. The options market allows you to buy or sell options on stocks at any time before they expire. When you buy an option contract, your maximum loss is limited to the contract price.

There is no maximum to how much you can make on an option trade, but this occurs if the underlying stock rises above its strike price before the expiration.

6. Close Out an Options Position

The final step is to close out an options position. There are three ways to do this:

  • Sell an option (if you want to take your profit and sell the option back).
  • Buy an option (if you want to replace your existing position with a new one).
  • Exercise the option (if it has become profitable).
