标题: Shorting Options [打印本页]

Is anyone clear whether shorting an option is identical to writing an option? When you short a call option, are you agreeing to deliver the underlying if its price rises above the option's exercise price?

Short = write an option -- commit to delivery if long asks for it
Long = own an option -- ask for delivery if you think price is fair
