CASH TRADING :In
this buying or selling of securities is done by providing the capital needed to
fund the transaction without relying on the use of margin. Cash trading is
achieved using a cash account, which is a type of brokerage account that
requires the investor to pay for securities within two days from when the purchase
is made.

F&O

OPTIONS TRADING : confers the right but not the obligation to buy (call option) or sell (put option) a specified underlying instrument or asset at a specified price - the Strike or Exercise price, until or at specified future date - the expiry date. The price is called Premium and is paid by buyer of the option to the seller or writer of the option.
So, based on the definition I believe the answer is clear to you. Moreover if I talk about
· ROI is better on Options than Cash Market trading
although the risk is also higher if you are not trading with intraday limit.
· You can hold an option till expiry although options
have a time decay issue as the value of option depends on time.
· Options are safe gamble, the value cannot go in
negative, your risk is defined already. You will not loose below it.
SO FOR ME OPTIONS ARE BETTER TRADE THAN CASH MARKET.
