Max pain occurs when Onto Innovation's market makers reach a net positive position across all Onto Innovation's options at a strike price where option holders stand to lose the most money.

In The Money vs. Out of Money Option Contracts on Onto Innovation

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

Onto Innovation In The Money Call Balance

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

Onto Current Options Market Mood

Onto Innovation'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 Onto 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 Onto contract

Base on the Rule 16, the options market is currently suggesting that Onto Innovation will have an average daily up or down price movement of about 0.0406% per day over the life of the 2025-03-21 option contract. With Onto Innovation trading at USD 216.59, that is roughly USD 0.088. If you think that the market is fully incorporating Onto Innovation's daily price movement you should consider buying Onto Innovation options at the current volatility level of 0.65%. But if you have an opposite viewpoint you should avoid it and even consider selling them.
  
Purchasing Onto Innovation 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" Onto calls. Remember, the seller must deliver Onto Innovation stock to the call owner when a call is exercised.
