In The Money vs. Out of Money Option Contracts on Smith Nephew

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

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.
