In The Money vs. Out of Money Option Contracts on FTI Consulting

Analyzing FTI Consulting's in-the-money options over time can help investors to take a profitable long position in FTI Consulting regardless of its overall volatility. This is especially true when FTI Consulting's options are deep in the money. These options can be identified using deltas that are over 0.75. Deep in-the-money FTI Consulting's options could be used as guardians of the underlying stock as they move almost dollar for dollar with FTI Consulting's stock while costing only a fraction of its price.
Please note that buying 'in-the-money' options on FTI Consulting lessens the impact of time decay, as they carry both intrinsic and time value. So, even if FTI Consulting'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 FTI Consulting 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 FTI Stock moves the wrong way.
