Protection d'une position «vendeur» en achetant une option d'achat «de protection». Cette stratégie est habituellement appelée «vente à découvert protégée». L'investisseur peut avoir vendu à découvert des actions (peut être parce qu'il n'y avait aucune option de vente disponible à l'achat sur les actions) et avoir ensuite décidé de protéger la vente à découvert en achetant une option d'achat équivalente sur les actions. Dans un autre cas, l'investisseur peut avoir d'abord acheté une option d'achat sur les actions et ensuite décidé de vendre à découvert le nombre équivalent d'actions. 2, record 4, French, - vente%20%C3%A0%20d%C3%A9couvert%20prot%C3%A9g%C3%A9e
