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

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

With FormFactor trading at USD 44.46, that is roughly USD 0.008892. If you think that the market is fully incorporating FormFactor's daily price movement you should consider buying FormFactor options at the current volatility level of 0.32%. But if you have an opposite viewpoint you should avoid it and even consider selling them.
  
Purchasing FormFactor 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" FormFactor calls. Remember, the seller must deliver FormFactor stock to the call owner when a call is exercised.

The market value of FormFactor is measured differently than its book value, which is the value of FormFactor that is recorded on the company's balance sheet. Investors also form their own opinion of FormFactor's value that differs from its market value or its book value, called intrinsic value, which is FormFactor's true underlying value. Investors use various methods to calculate intrinsic value and buy a stock when its market value falls below its intrinsic value. Because FormFactor's market value can be influenced by many factors that don't directly affect FormFactor's underlying business (such as a pandemic or basic market pessimism), market value can vary widely from intrinsic value.

Investors typically determine if FormFactor is a good investment by looking at such factors as earnings, sales, fundamental and technical indicators, competition as well as analyst projections.
