What is options revenue sharing and how does it work?
At Public, we take a unique approach to options trading by sharing up to 50% of the revenue we generate from payment for order flow (PFOF) with you, the customer. That means not only are there no fees that go to Public when you place an options trade, but you also get a rebate of up to $0.06–$0.18 per contract traded.
Why are options considered riskier than other investments?
Options are considered riskier than many other investments because they are leveraged instruments, meaning that a small investment can lead to large gains or losses. Option prices can fluctuate significantly, and the potential for the total loss of your investment is higher than stocks or bonds.
