position. In the preceding position, the strategist wanted to be gamma long, but
|
||||
neutral with respect to delta and volatility. Suppose he not only expects price
|
||||
movement (meaning he wants positive gamma), but also expects an increase in
|
||||
volatility. If that were the case, he would want positive vega as well. Suppose he
|
||||
quantifies that desire by deciding that he wants to make $1,000 for every one
|
||||
percentage increase in volatility. The simultaneous equations would then be:
|
||||
0.050lx + 0.0306y = 10 (gamma)
|
||||
0.089x + 0.147y = 10 (vega)
|
||||
The solution to these equations is:
|
||||
X = 243, y = -80
|
||||
Furthermore, 8,500 shares would have to be sold short in order to make the position
|
||||
delta neutral. The resulting position would then be:
|
||||
Short 8,500 XYZ
|
||||
Long 243 March 60 calls
|
||||
Short 80 June 60 calls
|
||||
Delta: neutral
|
||||
Gamma: long 1,000 shares
|
||||
Vega: long $1,000
|
||||
Theta: long $630
