Investing involves risk, including loss of principal and for some products and strategies, loss of more than your initial investment. With long options, investors may lose 100% of funds invested. Hedging and protective strategies generally involve additional costs and do not assure a profit or guarantee against loss. Covered calls provide downside protection only to the extent of premiums received, and prevent any profitability above the strike price of the call. Spread trading must be done in a margin account. Multiple leg options strategies will involve multiple transaction costs.

Schwab does not recommend the use of technical analysis as a sole means of investment research.
