Ah, the old put-selling gambit. Just be careful, amigo, or you might end up with a stock you don't want at a price you don't like. But hey, if you're feeling lucky, go for it!

I dunno, it seems like the market could always surprise you. I'm going with A - can't say for sure until we see what the stock does.

This one's a cinch! The maximum profit is the premium you collected, which is EUR 2.80. Simple as that.

Option D sounds right to me. The premium you received is your maximum profit, no matter what happens to the stock price. Easy money!

Exactly, selling a put option can be a good way to generate income if you don't mind potentially buying the stock at the strike price.

So, even if the stock price drops below the strike price, your profit is still capped at EUR 2.80.

I'm not sure, but I think the maximum profit depends on market movements, so it could vary.

I agree with Brinda, the maximum profit is EUR 2.80 because that's the premium received.

Hmm, I think the correct answer is C. EUR 43.20. You sold the put at 46, and the premium was 2.80, so your max profit is the difference between those two, which is 43.20.

Well, if the stock price falls below 46 euros, I'd say the maximum profit is 2.80 euros. That's a pretty sweet deal, if you ask me.
