Open Interest Against 2024-05-10 Option Contracts

Groupon option prices can potentially be used to forecast stock returns because most option chains provide information not only about the current prices but also about the future conditions in Groupon's lending market. For example, when Groupon's puts are not actively trading or completely missing in the marketplace, investors can use it to internalize expected shorting costs.

Groupon Maximum Pain Price across 2024-05-10 Option Contracts

Max pain usually refers to a trading concept that asserts that market manipulation can cause the market price of particular securities such as Groupon close to expiration to expire worthless. According to most research, approximately 10% to 15% of all stock options are exercised, while about 35% expire worthlessly, with roughly 50% traded out before the expiration date. So, Max pain occurs when market makers reach a net positive position across all options at a strike price where option holders stand to lose the most money. By contrast, option sellers may reap the most after selling more options than buying, causing them to expire worthless.

So, even if Groupon's value remains static through the expiration date, the investor can sell to close an 'in-the-money' option to avoid a potential loss. However, in-the-money Groupon contracts are usually more expensive to enter than their out-of-the-money counterparts.

Groupon In The Money Call Balance

When Groupon's strike price is surpassing the current stock price, the option contract against Groupon stock is said to be in the money. When it comes to buying Groupon's options that are 'In the Money' or 'Out of the Money', the choice depends on your outlook for the underlying security, financial situation, and what you are trying to achieve.
While 'out-of-the-money' option contracts written on Groupon are typically viewed as the more aggressive, there are potential upsides to purchasing these types of options contracts. For one, the cost to buy an 'Out of the Money' option is lower than the cost to buy an 'In the Money' option. This cost-benefit is due to the fact that at the time of the purchase, 'Out of the Money' contracts have no intrinsic value. So, while the potential for a 100% loss is more significant, the cost and risk to enter the trade are lower.

With Groupon trading at USD 11.22, that is roughly USD 1.46.

One simple example of these aggressive strategies is the sale of "uncovered" Groupon calls. Remember, the seller must deliver Groupon stock to the call owner when a call is exercised.
