(FINANCE) a tradable financial instrument that consists of a commitment to buy a fixed amount of X at a fixed price (known as a "strike price"). Put options are the opposite of a call option, in which ones to sell a fixed amount of X at strike.
Put options are useful to traders interested in covering risk. They guarantee a minimum price at which one can expect to sell one's holdings of X.
