What is the main characteristic of LT Equity Anticipation options?

  1. Short-term validity

  2. Identical risk/reward profile to regular options

  3. Unable to profit

  4. Restricted to 5 months

The correct answer is: Identical risk/reward profile to regular options

LT Equity Anticipation options inherently have an identical risk/reward profile to regular options. This means that they have the same potential for both gains and losses as regular options. Option A and D are incorrect because they refer to specific limitations or timeliness of LT Equity Anticipation options, which are not defining characteristics. Option C is incorrect because LT Equity Anticipation options, like all options, have the potential for profits depending on the market conditions and the chosen strategy.
