What is this and how is it calculated?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGreat question, but its not a one size fits all situation. Whats being expressed is how option traders collective actions can be fitted into a price estimate for the movement expected in the shares once the event driving the option premiums is announced.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor instance, in front of Food and Drug Administration (Fda announcements, a typical scenario) is to see option premiums get bid well-above theoretical fair value based on the stocks underlying movements. Traders doing the bidding are willing to pay the stiff prices in the calls and puts because the expectation is that the news will move shares dramatically enough to compensate for the added premium risk.","brand":"store-traders-com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52134154371441,"sku":"\\V28\\C01\\016EYO.PDF","price":2.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0900\/3843\/6209\/files\/unnamed_32346f52-2641-4aa8-ac8f-1b78845d2259.jpg?v=1739669167","url":"https:\/\/shop.traders.com\/products\/stcov287exyo","provider":"Stocks \u0026 Commodities","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
