Open Interest Against June 20th 2025 Option Contracts

AES 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 AES's lending market. For example, when AES's puts are not actively trading or completely missing in the marketplace, investors can use it to internalize expected shorting costs. So if an investor is writing a put option on AES, he or she must hedge the risk by shorting AES stock over its option's life.

In The Money vs. Out of Money Option Contracts on AES

Analyzing AES's in-the-money options over time can help investors to take a profitable long position in AES regardless of its overall volatility. This is especially true when AES's options are deep in the money. These options can be identified using deltas that are over 0.75. Deep in-the-money AES's options could be used as guardians of the underlying stock as they move almost dollar for dollar with AES's stock while costing only a fraction of its price.

AES In The Money Call Balance

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

AES Current Options Market Mood

AES's open interest and total value indicators provide investors with the necessary information to digest the overall options buildup for its expiring contracts. In addition, it helps AES Stock's traders understand whether a recent fall or rise in the market is unreasonable and if the time has come to take contrarian positions. These ratios are calculated based on options trading volumes and current open interest.

Put-to-Call Open Interest

Put-to-Call Volume

Most options investors, including buyers and sellers of AES's calls and puts, are not very successful. It is estimated that an average options trader loses somewhere between 80% to 90% of the time. AES's option open interest and volume spread between outstanding puts and calls are regarded by many investors as reliable indicators of the overall future market direction.

Rule 16 of the current AES contract

Base on the Rule 16, the options market is currently suggesting that The AES will have an average daily up or down price movement of about 0.0425% per day over the life of the 2025-06-20 option contract. With AES trading at USD 13.05, that is roughly USD 0.005546. If you think that the market is fully incorporating AES's daily price movement you should consider buying The AES options at the current volatility level of 0.68%. But if you have an opposite viewpoint you should avoid it and even consider selling them.
  
Purchasing AES 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" AES calls. Remember, the seller must deliver The AES stock to the call owner when a call is exercised.

AES Option Chain

When AES's strike price is surpassing the current stock price, the option contract against The AES stock is said to be in the money. When it comes to buying options that are ITM or OTM, the choice depends on your outlook for the underlying security, financial situation, and what you are trying to achieve.
