### What Are SOL Options?

SOL options are derivatives that give you the **right but not the obligation** to buy or sell Solana (SOL) at a chosen strike price before expiry.

* **Call options** → Bet on rising SOL prices.
* **Put options** → Protect against or profit from downside moves.

Options give traders the ability to **hedge, speculate, and trade volatility** with defined downside risk — unlike perpetuals, where sudden moves can lead to liquidation.

***

### Expiration Dates Available

PowerTrade offers **SOL options with expirations ranging from same-day (0DTE) up to 12 months**.

* **Short-dated contracts** (daily / weekly) → trade momentum and quick price swings.
* **Longer-dated contracts** (up to 1 year) → hedge portfolio risk or build strategic positions.

This wide range of expiries makes SOL options more versatile than any perpetual or spot market.
