Radian Maximum Pain Price Across 2025-02-21 Option Contracts

Max pain occurs when Radian's market makers reach a net positive position across all Radian's options at a strike price where option holders stand to lose the most money. By contrast, Radian's option sellers may reap the most after selling more options than buying, causing them to expire worthless.
Please note that buying 'in-the-money' options on Radian lessens the impact of time decay, as they carry both intrinsic and time value. So, even if Radian'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 Radian 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 Radian Stock moves the wrong way.

Radian Group In The Money Call Balance

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

Radian Current Options Market Mood

Radian'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 Radian 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.

Investors also form their own opinion of Radian's value that differs from its market value or its book value, called intrinsic value, which is Radian's true underlying value. Investors use various methods to calculate intrinsic value and buy a stock when its market value falls below its intrinsic value. Because Radian's market value can be influenced by many factors that don't directly affect Radian's underlying business (such as a pandemic or basic market pessimism), market value can vary widely from intrinsic value.
