This is especially true when MI Homes' options are deep in the money. These options can be identified using deltas that are over 0.75. Deep in-the-money MI Homes' options could be used as guardians of the underlying stock as they move almost dollar for dollar with MI Homes' stock while costing only a fraction of its price.
Please note that buying 'in-the-money' options on MI Homes lessens the impact of time decay, as they carry both intrinsic and time value. So, even if MI Homes' 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 MI Homes contracts are usually more expensive to enter than their out-of-the-money counterparts.

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.
