对一个x金融产品来说,假设是个股票吧,假设这个股票当前市场价格现在是 $50 , 再假设这个是个 Call Option.
对 option strike 为 $48, 这个 option 当前市场价格为 $3 就是 In the Money.
对 option strike 为 $52, 这个 option 当前市场价格为 $0.5, 这个 Option 就是 out of money.
对 In the money option 来说,离价该格越远,就是 deep in the money.
对 Out of the money option, 离价格越远,就是 deep in the money.
In the money 和 out of the money 是针对当时股票价格而言的,随着股票价格在市场上的波动和时间的推移
每个Strike 下面的 Option 价格也会相应变化, In the money option 可以变成 Out of the money,
反之亦然。
如果是PUT Option, 那么上面的都反过来。
Option price = Option intrinsic value + option time value.
In the money ption = Any option that has an intrinsic value.
Intrinsic value = The in-the-money portion of the option's premium.
For example, If a call options strike price is $48 and the underlying stock's market price is at $50, and the call option price is $3.00, then the intrinsic value of the call option is $2 ($50-$48), and the option time value is $1.0.
A call option is in-the-money if its strike price is below the current price of the underlying futures contract.
A put option is in-the-money if its strike price is above the current price of the underlying futures contract.
