Please note that buying 'in-the-money' options on Qiagen NV lessens the impact of time decay, as they carry both intrinsic and time value. So, even if Qiagen NV'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 Qiagen NV 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 Qiagen Stock moves the wrong way.

This cost-benefit is due to the fact that at the time of the purchase, 'Out of the Money' contracts have no intrinsic value.
