* '''Underlying Asset''' — The real-world object (stock, commodity, etc.) that the derivative is based on.
* '''Option''' — A contract that gives the buyer the ''right'' (but not the obligation) to buy or sell an asset at a set price.
* '''Call Option''' — A bet that the price will go '''Up'''.
* '''Put Option''' — A bet that the price will go '''Down'''.
* '''Future''' — A contract that ''obligates'' both sides to trade an asset at a set price on a set date in the future.
* '''Swap''' — A contract to "swap" cash flows (e.g., swapping a variable interest rate for a fixed one).
* '''Strike Price''' — The price at which an option holder can buy or sell the underlying asset.
* '''Expiration Date''' — The date when the derivative contract ends.
* '''Premium''' — The fee paid to buy an option.
* '''Hedging''' — Using derivatives to offset potential losses in another investment.
* '''Speculation''' — Taking on risk in the hope of making a quick profit from price movements.
* '''Leverage''' — Using a small amount of money to control a large amount of an asset (making both gains and losses much bigger).
