Ok thanks so much for answering those questions. What you said makes sense about it being how many contracts are out there, not how many limit orders are in place at that moment. I'm trying to understand delta pricing, is this correct..? If I buy an S&P500 Mini Put with a deta of -.388, does...

Hi, I'm sorry in advance for asking dumb questions. My broker (Interactive Brokers) doesn't list the Delta for VSTOXX V2TX Volatility Options on the Euro Stoxx 50. I know that the VIX options on the American Exchange are also constantly wrong because it goes off the Spot Index and not the...
