A decrease in value of the options from time decay causes an increase in
|
||||
profitability. This profit potential pinnacles at the center (strike) price at
|
||||
expiration. Rising IV will cause a decline in profitability at each stock price
|
||||
point. Declining IV will raise the payout on the Y axis as profitability
|
||||
increases at each price point.
|
||||
Smileys and frowns are a mere graphical representation of the technique
|
||||
discussed in this chapter: buying and selling realized volatility. These P&
|
||||
(L) diagrams are limited, because they show the payout only of stock-price
|
||||
movement. The profitability of direction-indifferent and direction-neutral
|
||||
trading is also influenced by time and implied volatility. These actively
|
||||
traded strategies are best evaluated on a gamma-theta basis. Long-gamma
|
||||
traders strive each day to scalp enough to cover the day’s theta, while short-
|
||||
gamma traders hope to keep the loss due to adverse movement in the
|
||||
underlying lower than the daily profit from theta.
|
||||
The strategies in this chapter are the same ones traded in Chapter 12. The
|
||||
only difference is the philosophy. Ultimately, both types of volatility are
|
||||
being traded using these and other option strategies. Implied and realized
|
||||
volatility go hand in hand.
