Open Interest Against April 17th 2025 Option Contracts

For example, when Live Nation'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 Live Nation, he or she must hedge the risk by shorting Live Nation stock over its option's life.

In The Money vs. Out of Money Option Contracts on Live Nation

Analyzing Live Nation's in-the-money options over time can help investors to take a profitable long position in Live Nation regardless of its overall volatility. This is especially true when Live Nation's options are deep in the money. These options can be identified using deltas that are over 0.75.

Live Nation Entertainment In The Money Call Balance

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

Base on the Rule 16, the options market is currently suggesting that Live Nation Entertainment will have an average daily up or down price movement of about 0.0275% per day over the life of the 2025-04-17 option contract. With Live Nation trading at USD 135.61, that is roughly USD 0.0373.

Purchasing Live Nation 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" Live calls. Remember, the seller must deliver Live Nation Entertainment stock to the call owner when a call is exercised.
