528A COMPleTe gUIde TO THe FUTUreS MArKeT
|
||||
Comment. Comments analogous to those made for Strategy 13 would apply here. The sale of a put
|
||||
against a short futures position is equivalent to the sale of a call. The reader can verify this by compar-
|
||||
ing Figure 35.14 to Figure 35.4 a. The two strategies would be precisely equivalent (ignoring transac-
|
||||
tion cost diff erences) if the put and call premiums were equal.
|
||||
Strategy 15: Synthetic Long Futures (Long Call + Short put)
|
||||
example . Buy an August $1,150 gold futures call at a premium of $70.10/oz ($7,010) and simultane-
|
||||
ously sell an August $1,150 gold futures put at a premium of $19.90/oz ($1,990). (See Table 35.15
|
||||
and Figure 35.15 .)
|
||||
Comment. A synthetic long futures position can be created by combining a long call and a short put
|
||||
for the same expiration date and the same strike price. For example, as illustrated in Table 35.15 and Figure
|
||||
35.15 , the combined position of a long August $1,150 call and a short August $1,150 put is virtually
|
||||
identical to a long August futures position. The reason for this equivalence is tied to the fact that the
|
||||
diff erence between the premium paid for the call and the premium received for the put is approxi-
|
||||
mately equal to the intrinsic value of the call. each $1 increase in price will raise the intrinsic value of
|
||||
the call by an equivalent amount and each $1 decrease in price will reduce the intrinsic value of the
