| Bibhu | All other refer to the purchaser. |
| magicchip | writer=seller |

| group | An option writer could be an option seller or buyer, a good question |
| jpducros | I don't think so group: an option writer is always an option seller. |
| poomie83 | you wouldn't write (sell) an option and buy it yourself |
| To-be-CFA | Option writer is the option seller. |
I used your notes and passed ... highly recommended!
