There are three reasons to buy a put option:
to lock in downside profits: if you paid $10 for the stock and it's now $20, you could buy a put at $18. If the stock falls past $18, the put exercises and you keep most of your gain.
in the hedging strategies "straddle" and "strangle." In those you buy both a put and a call.
and to protect yourself against loss: you buy the put at the price you paid for the stock, or at a level you're comfortable with falling to.
You can profit from selling puts in two ways. The simplest is to sell puts that expire worthless, so you keep the premium. The other is in a buy and hold strategy: you buy slightly out-of-the-money puts on stocks that change price in a predictable fashion. You then keep the stock until it goes up in price before selling it. This, however, takes months and if you're into churning stock it will never work for you.
Put options has a few very significant advantages and one of the most direct of these is the ability for you to BUY the DROP of a stock. Put options gain in price as the underlying stock DROPS! Yes, with put options, there will be no need for shorting stocks in order to profit from a drop in price of a stock.Selling put options lets you play banker to people who are betting on the price of a stock going downwards. If they are wrong, you get to keep the "bet money". This allows you to profit when the stock goes upwards OR simply stayed sideways!See the link below for more details on put options.
The easiest way to profit from options is to buy call options when you think the underlying stock is going to go up and buy put options when you think the underlying stock is going to go down. However, that is only the most basic way of trading options. There are literally hundreds of different combinations known as "Options Strategies" that you can use to make very good profit in options trading. In fact, using some of these options strategies, you could even profit no matter if the stock goes up, down or sideways! No prediction needed.

Buy the right put option, meaning the correct strike price and the correct expiration date and if the stock goes down, you make money. Options Weekly has some great write ups on trading options.
When you write a put option, you are player banker to someone betting that the price of a stock is going up. You receive the "bet" in the form of the options premium earned form the person buying the put options from you. If the stock fails to exceed the strike price of the put options by expiration, the buyer has lost the bet and you keep the "bet" money as profit. In this case, your profit is limited to the "bet" money or options premium you received for selling the put options. When you buy a call option, you are buying the right to buy a stock at a fixed price until expiration. If you buy a call option with strike price of $10 and the stock subsequently went up to $50, you can still buy the stock at $10 and then sell it for $50, making the $40 difference as profit. In this case, your profit is only limited to how high the stock rises.
Call options allow you profit when the price of the underlying stock goes up. So you would buy call options when you wish to profit upwards and sell call options when you wish to profit sideways or downwards.
