These are the significant points of profitability at expiration. One does not care
|
||||
what the unit of trading is (for example, cents for soybeans) or how many dollars are
|
||||
involved in one unit of trading ($50 for soybeans and soybean options). He can con
|
||||
duct his analysis strictly in terms of points, and he should do so.
|
||||
Before proceeding into the comparisons beleen the backspread and the ratio
|
||||
spread as they apply to mispriced futures options, it should be pointed out that the seri
|
||||
ous strategist should analyze how his position will perform over the short term as well
|
||||
as at expiration. These analyses are presented in Chapter 36 on advanced concepts.
