am thinking the disconnect is you are speaking to the evaluation process prior to purchase whereas I'm trying to get an idea of post purchase price movement of different delta's IF the underlying moves in direction of bet made (i.e. down 15% in underlying after OTM puts are bought)

well that is pretty friggin cool, thanks guess i just need to track real time prices to see how different deltas respond to moves in the underlying...

well i meant IF i owned two 30% OTM Put options, one w/ a Delta of -.05 and the other -.02, and after purchase the underlying dropped by 15% - would there be a material difference in how the two acted or no?

I missed that too. So then the real question, since I am not experienced in options, what is the real world difference of a 30% OTM Put option w/ Delta of -.05 (2013) vs -.02 (2022) ??

great response. the next line in the book is "in the case of a 40 percent implied volatility" so looked up current stats for put, 30% OTM and got this: IV is consistent w/ Spitz's example, but how come the delta is SO massively different then decade ago (.02 vs .50)???

can anyone here possibly help me out with this? In Spitz's first book, Dao of Capital, he gives the following example of risk mitigation: "2-month 0.5 delta puts on the S&P Composite Index (approximately 30 percent out of the money" When I look up option chains in Schwab, options such as the...

If you have to ask what a welfare space chimp is, you are one Back to FTT. Under Dems its possible, not probable. More possible than its ever been. If implemented, would be date in the future until enforceable - like Reg NMS...

That means you are the same side of the welfare space chimps, regardless of your rationale. Which is exactly what I said, am 100% anti-welfare space chimps. PS - Foreign govt's not liking Trump was one of the benefits of him in 2016. White people in the US don't want any more foreigners...
