Progressive Corp Maximum Pain Price across 2024-05-17 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 Progressive Corp 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.

Please note that buying 'in-the-money' options on Progressive Corp lessens the impact of time decay, as they carry both intrinsic and time value. So, even if Progressive Corp'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 Progressive Corp contracts are usually more expensive to enter than their out-of-the-money counterparts. So keep in mind that while the payoffs on an in-the-money trade can be high, the investors could ultimately experience a more consequential loss if Progressive Stock moves the wrong way.

Progressive Corp In The Money Call Balance

When Progressive Corp's strike price is surpassing the current stock price, the option contract against Progressive Corp stock is said to be in the money. When it comes to buying Progressive Corp'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 Progressive Corp 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.

Using current Progressive Corp's option volume and open interest to make an investment decision is considered a contrarian-sentiment measure that can be utilized in many timing strategies in both derivative and spot marketplace.

Rule 16 of the current Progressive contract

Base on the Rule 16, the options market is currently suggesting that Progressive Corp will have an average daily up or down price movement of about 1.49% per day over the life of the 2024-05-17 option contract. With Progressive Corp trading at USD 214.02, that is roughly USD 3.18. If you think that the market is fully incorporating Progressive Corp's daily price movement you should consider buying Progressive Corp options at the current volatility level of 23.79%.

Purchasing Progressive Corp options can give investors a meaningful hedge against losses and, therefore, could be used conservatively to decrease the volatility of your portfolio. However, many options could also amount to little more than gambling, significantly enhancing your overall portfolio risk. One simple example of these aggressive strategies is the sale of "uncovered" Progressive calls. Remember, the seller must deliver Progressive Corp stock to the call owner when a call is exercised.
