Homework Help: Finance-Options

Posted by Evan on Saturday, October 11, 2008 at 8:20pm.

I am having trouble with options.
Long call, i know it means you buy the right to buy an asset. Long put, you buy the right to sell an asset. What is confusing the the short call and short put. What does it mean you sell the right to buy and sell the right to sell?
