Used properly, as Tony described, options can be a way to limit losses, so they can be part of a strategy that is lower risk.

The challenge I find with options, is the time table.  It's difficult enough to predict where a stock will move in the near-term, but the additional challenge of managing the expiration dates makes this challenge daunting.

I might not be understanding this completely but it seems like an overly risky way to invest to me.

but then again, i am not a very big risk taker...
