Chooser Option

Trading Term

A type of option contract that allows the holder to decide whether it is a call or put prior to the expiration date. Chooser options usually have the same exercise price and expiration date regardless of what decision the holder ultimately makes. Because they don’t specify that the movement in the underlying asset is be positive or negative, chooser options provide investors flexibility when evaluating volatility issues.
