In The Money vs. Out of Money Option Contracts on Portman Ridge

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

So, even if Portman Ridge'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 Portman Ridge 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 Portman Stock moves the wrong way.
