Abstract: In this note we analyze in a discrete-time context and with a finite outcome space American options starting with the idea that every tradable should be a martingale under a certain measure. We believe that in this way American options become more understandable to people with a good working knowledge of European options and a basic understanding of stochastic processes in discrete-time. Invariably we will assume that the underlying market is complete.
