Futures vs Options

Futures vs Options ( Key Difference)

• One of the benefit about trading futures is even though they are an expiring asset they do not have time decay (aka theta) like options do.

This is a huge bonus because with options you could be right on the direction (bullish or bearish) but if option price doesn’t move quickly enough in favor of the trade then you could lose out on profits due to time decay.
