    I don’t follow your reasoning on large losses when buying options, even naked ones. When you own an option you have a right but not an obligation. Do you mean selling options?

      I think they meant selling, yes. But also, most brokers for the commoner won’t let you trade options without specific interest/understanding, yet alone sell naked options.
