    Volatility Trading - Call and Put Options - Trading Tutorial

    These classes are all based on the book Derivatives For The Trading Floor, available on Amazon at this link. https://amzn.to/3GdLi2s Check out our website http://www.onfinance.org/Follow Patrick on twitter here: https://twitter.com/PatrickEBoyleWhat is volatility trading?Volatility trading is the term used to describe trading the volatility of the price of an underlying instrument rather than the price itself. For example, you could trade the price direction of an equity index, but volatility trading typically means trading the expected future volatility of the index. Any instrument whose price moves, exhibits price volatility. Volatility trading is simply buying and selling the expected future volatility of the instrument. Rather than predicting whether the price of an asset will move up or down, volatility traders are concerned with how much movement, in any direction, will occur.How is volatility traded?The most common way to trade volatility is using options. The value of an option is affected by several factors, but an essential determinant of its value is the expected future volatility of the underlying instrument, which is included in the pricing formulas as standard deviation. Other things being equal, options struck on an underlying with higher expected volatility will be more expensive than options struck on an underlying expected to be less volatile. Options therefore are a good way to gain exposure to the volatility of the underlying.The price of volatilityThe value of an option can be attributed to several components. By stripping these away, traders can imply an annualised volatility level that the option’s tick value equates to. This is known as the implied volatility. So an equity index may be trading at a certain price and it may have exhibited a certain realized level of volatility over the previous 12 months. Traders can compare this realized level of volatility with the current implied level as seen in the option market. However, there is a crucial difference here; the implied volatility level refers to the annualized volatility that is expected over the life of the option. In other words, it is forward looking and reflects traders’ current best estimate of what future realized volatility will be. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    Dynamic Hedging (Part 2)

    The second part of my tutorial on dynamic hedging.These classes are all based on the book Trading and Pricing Financial Derivatives, available on Amazon at this link. https://amzn.to/2WIoAL0 Check out our website http://www.onfinance.org/Follow Patrick on twitter here: https://twitter.com/PatrickEBoyleWhat is Dynamic Hedging?A hedging technique which seeks to limit an investment's exposure to delta and gamma by adjusting the hedge as the underlying security changes (hence, "dynamic"). The strategy is frequently used by financial professionals working with derivatives. Derivatives dealers often find that they hold large numbers of short options positions on an underlier which they want to offset by purchasing long options, but that they cannot find long options because these types of options are not as available. To reduce exposure the trader will create a delta hedge of a non-linear position, such as an exotic option, with a linear position, such as a spot trade.The deltas of the linear and non-linear positions offset. As the value of the underlying changes the trader will have to take out new linear positions to offset the changing non-linear delta. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    Private Equity’s Quiet Crisis!

    Creating Neutral Portfolios - The Option Greeks

    These classes are all based on the book Trading and Pricing Financial Derivatives, available on Amazon at this link. https://amzn.to/2WIoAL0 Check out our website http://www.onfinance.org/Follow Patrick on twitter here: https://twitter.com/PatrickEBoyleThe option sensitivity measures familiar to most option traders are often referred to as the Greeks: delta, gamma, vega, lambda, rho, and theta. Delta is the price sensitivity of an option with respect to changes in the price of the underlying asset. It represents a first-order sensitivity measure analogous to duration in fixed income markets. Gamma is the sensitivity of an option's delta to changes in the price of the underlying asset, and represents a second-order price sensitivity analogous to convexity in fixed income markets. Vega is the price sensitivity of an option with respect to changes in the volatility of the underlying asset. See Pricing and Analyzing Equity Derivatives or the Glossary for other definitions. The Greeks of a particular option are a function of the model used to price the option. However, given enough different options to work with, a trader can construct a portfolio with any desired values for its greeks. For example, to insulate the value of an option portfolio from small changes in the price of the underlying asset, one trader might construct an option portfolio whose delta is zero. Such a portfolio is then said to be “delta neutral.” Another trader may want to protect an option portfolio from larger changes in the price of the underlying asset, and so might construct a portfolio whose delta and gamma are both zero. Such a portfolio is both delta and gamma neutral. A third trader may want to construct a portfolio insulated from small changes in the volatility of the underlying asset in addition to delta and gamma neutrality. Such a portfolio is then delta, gamma, and vega neutral. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
