In Options Trading, What Is a Concept Analogous to an “Unspent” Financial Position?

An analogous concept in options trading to an "unspent" UTXO is an open position that has not yet been closed, exercised, or expired. An open long option contract, for example, represents a right (the value) that has been acquired but not yet "spent" (exercised or sold).

Just as a UTXO must be consumed to create a new transaction, the open option must be acted upon to realize its final value or close the position.
