assumption. Because these are the two biggest determinants, let’s take a
|
||||
look at some common examples in which a change in one offsets or exac-
|
||||
erbates a change in the other.
|
||||
Following are a few examples of how interactions between the variables
|
||||
sometimes appear. For each of these examples, I am assuming a shorter
|
||||
investment time horizon than I usually do because most people who get hurt
|
||||
by some adverse combination of variables exacerbate their pain by trading
|
||||
short-term contracts, where the effect of time value is particularly severe.

Falling Volatility Offsets Accurate Directional Prediction
|
||||
Let’s say that we are expecting Advanced Building Corp. to announce that it
|
||||
will release a new product and that we believe that this product announcement
|
||||
will generate a significant short-term boost in the stock price. We think that
|
||||
the $50 stock price could pop up to $55, so we buy some short-dated calls
|
||||
struck at $55, figuring that if the price does pop, we can sell the calls struck at
|
||||
$55 for a handsome profit. Here’s a diagram of what we are doing:

As you should be able to tell by this diagram, this call option should
|
||||
be pretty cheap—there is a little corner of the call option’s range of expo-
|
||||
sure within the BSM cone, but not much.
