      Question

      An investor who sells a call option is said to have a:

      A Long call position and bears an obligation to sell. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Short call position and bears an obligation to sell. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Long call position and has the right to buy. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Short call position and has the right to sell. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E Short put position and has the right to sell. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      The seller/writer of an option has an obligation if the buyer exercises the option. A short call position means the writer has sold a call option. If the buyer exercises the right to buy the underlying asset, the writer is obligated to sell it at the strike price.
