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

So, while the potential for a 100% loss is more significant, the cost and risk to enter the trade are lower.
