In today's lesson, guys, I explain on
what's implied volatility. Other
IV, [music]
implied volatility. What is this? This
is arbitrage. And for what can this
market either break or make it, or break
it down [music] the trades. And remember
the manner that option trading involves
risk.
But the
1000%
was the test. And if those [music] any
shallows, please let us know in the
comments and cancel this address in the
comments of the lesson.
And I don't know what IV means. What
does IV mean? Basically, mind what is
the prediction from the market of what
the guy is saying with a stock by the
next stock will start. Okay, this is how
the guy stock moving going forward. And
this is what is going to happen with the
IV. Basically, based on option pricing
of option pricing, we can see the
excitement and the fear in the market.
But
in the options market, all the options
are speculated and all the options are
protected positions which I have. So all
the options market can be seen what the
IV is. So what is the difference with
the issue and the change? This is
historical volatility, HV, historical
volatility. IV is implied what we expect
[music] as the guy is saying. This is
forward looking. We can see from photos
what expect
the guy is saying. That was the day that
we said the
word. All of this is too high
IV. This means we expect a huge move
either up or down. This market option is
more expensive and all the guys buying
the option guys are saying no. And on
the other side, all the guys selling the
option guys are
>> [music]
>> saying yes. What is more expensive the
option? So if you have a low IV, a
smaller implied volatility, is options
[music] cheaper. And when the guys are
selling and on the other side, the guys
are buying, what is the difference?
This is going to affect
so this affects what they collect or
what they pay.
So where did we get the IV?
Copy it off the IV camp. We have a
pricing models of options. The most
known
pricing models [music] of options are
from the Black-Scholes model. And
in details from them irrelevant, but you
know what I mean. As the model
calculates
what the IV percentile is calculated,
and say the worst engineer load the
option price of the options. This is how
the price of the options load them is
calculated the IV. But you don't have to
calculate that because every normal
option chain from every normal brokerage
shows what the IV
the IV for this specific stock is or for
this specific expiration date. It's not
a fact. This is what they believe what
they are doing in the market based off
this activity what the guy is doing.
What can affect the IV? Earnings. Okay,
the most likely company that announces
their earnings. Guess [music] what can
change the price of the stock.
Price of the stock. People become more
excited or more concerned. So this
affects the IV. When the stock is very
popular and very exciting,
everyone wants to know
>> [music]
>> what the IV is going to be affected by
the faster coming to the earnings
announcement. [music]
What is the website saying what to
expect? Let me assume we expect a
certain news of the market align. The
Fed makes an announcement or other
things that can affect the IV or the
market fear. Not more than a coma. All
of these things can affect
the IV. [music] And when the event gets
a huge
IV, it's like a balloon being blown up
>> [music]
>> and glass. When the announcement is out,
it's like
I'm going to pin the balloon.
So you get the fall of the IV and the
whole
lift and the whole excitement is out of
it.
And this is what we call
IV crush. So the stock doesn't make a
huge move with earnings, but the option
price will be set. The question is why
did I buy the call option that stock is
going to go down? Why did I not make any
money on my option? Because the IV has
been crushed. So it dropped the IV. So
because of that, the option buyers will
lose a lot of money
with the IV crush. But on the other
side, the option sellers will benefit
from that because they sold the option
for a very high price and they can buy
it back for a cheaper price. So this
helps us to understand what is IV and
what is [music]
high or the low IV compared to the
history. This is what we call IV
percentile and the IV rank. What is the
percent of the IV compared to the
historical volatility? For example, if
you have the IV rank of 80, this means
that IV is 80% higher than the previous
value. Before that, it was 80% lower and
now it has become the IV with 80%
higher. [music] And when you want to
sell the premium, this is the time to
have a higher IV. And when you want to
buy
a premium,
this is the time to have a
lower
IV. You can see the
option chain for the SPY [music]
and you can see all of the SPY option
chain and all the expiration dates that
you can see there. And you can see the
IV based on the expiration date. 19% IV.
And
you can see that
the IV fluctuates and all the expiration
dates have different [music] numbers for
the IV. And when there is an event,
for example, earnings for a stock, the
IV has gone up a lot.
And you can see the option premium will
be very high. Look at that. So I hope
