    Out of the money vega question

    As OTM options get closer to ATM, their Vega will increase. However, they become less sensitive to changes in IV. So, assuming your puts are still relatively OTM, you could hedge your Vega exposure by selling some ATM options. If Vol were to drop, the (short)vega of these options would stay...

    How to read Theta value in this example

    Theta is an option's sensitivity time, so yes, decay. The 11.37 value is theta*100, raw theta would be 0.1137. Therefore, it will be worth 1.80 - 0.1137 = 1.68 in one day.
