Put-Call Parity
|
||||
Put and call values are mathematically bound together by an equation
|
||||
referred to as put-call parity. In its basic form, put-call parity states:
|
||||
where
|
||||
c = call value,
|
||||
PV(x) = present value of the strike price,
|
||||
p = put value, and
|
||||
s = stock price.
|
||||
The put-call parity assumes that options are not exercised before
|
||||
expiration (that is, that they are European style). This version of the put-call
|
||||
parity is for European options on non-dividend-paying stocks. Put-call
|
||||
parity can be modified to reflect the values of options on stocks that pay
|
||||
dividends. In practice, equity-option traders look at the equation in a
|
||||
slightly different way:
|
||||
Traders serious about learning to trade options must know put-call parity
|
||||
backward and forward. Why? First, by algebraically rearranging this
|
||||
equation, it can be inferred that synthetically equivalent positions can be
|
||||
established by simply adding stock to an option. Again, a put is a call; a call
|
||||
is a put.
|
||||
and
|
||||
For example, a long call is synthetically equal to a long stock position
|
||||
plus a long put on the same strike, once interest and dividends are figured
|
||||
in. A synthetic long stock position is created by buying a call and selling a
|
||||
put of the same month and strike. Understanding synthetic relationships is
|
||||
intrinsic to understanding options. A more comprehensive discussion of
|
||||
synthetic relationships and tactical considerations for creating synthetic
|
||||
positions is offered in Chapter 6.
