Synthetic options position

A synthetic options position is when you use two or more different types of investments to mimic the behavior of one option. An option is a type of financial instrument that gives you the right to buy (call option) or sell (put option) a stock for a certain price by a certain date. To make a synthetic options position, you take two different investments, like stocks and contracts, and combine them to do the same thing as the options contract would do. For example, you could use two stocks and a contract to create a synthetic call option, which would give you the right to buy a third stock at a lower price than what you would normally have to pay. The positions would be linked together so that if the stock you are trying to buy goes up in price, you can still buy it for the lower price.
