Answer:
Depends on the time you have to invest
Step-by-step explanation:
Options are when you bet on the stock to go up in a certain time period that you choose in the Option if the stock goes under before you exit you lose money if it goes up by the time you exit you earn money
Shorts are when you bet on the stock to go down using options
Options have alot of risk with them meaning if you study the company.
use nasdaq and other resources to see the rising stocks of the day/week and look into those if you are investing in a short period due to the fact those stocks are more likely to go up in a fast period of time but you should put a stop-loss on those due to the fact its likely the stock can crash at any time and you need to plan a proper exit.
Just do proper research and analyze the risk you are placing on this fictional money.
