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

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

HP Inc In The Money Call Balance

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

HP Current Options Market Mood

HP'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 HP 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.

Rule 16 of the current HP contract

Base on the Rule 16, the options market is currently suggesting that HP Inc will have an average daily up or down price movement of about 0.0306% per day over the life of the 2025-06-20 option contract. With HP trading at USD 28.91, that is roughly USD 0.008854. If you think that the market is fully incorporating HP's daily price movement you should consider buying HP Inc options at the current volatility level of 0.49%. But if you have an opposite viewpoint you should avoid it and even consider selling them.
  
Purchasing HP 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" HP calls. Remember, the seller must deliver HP Inc stock to the call owner when a call is exercised.

When HP's strike price is surpassing the current stock price, the option contract against HP Inc stock is said to be in the money.
