viannie | put option = the right to sell if you sell the put option so if you issue the put option, it's the opposite, you're obligated to buy |
group | A very good question- viannie you have clarified my confusion: put option is a right to sell and the writer of the put option has the obligation to buy |

I used your notes and passed ... highly recommended!
