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

In The Money vs. Out of Money Option Contracts on STMicroelectronics

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

STMicroelectronics NV ADR In The Money Call Balance

When STMicroelectronics' strike price is surpassing the current stock price, the option contract against STMicroelectronics NV ADR stock is said to be in the money. When it comes to buying STMicroelectronics' 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 STMicroelectronics NV ADR 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.

But if you have an opposite viewpoint you should avoid it and even consider selling them.
  
Purchasing STMicroelectronics options can give investors a meaningful hedge against losses and, therefore, could be used conservatively to decrease the volatility of your portfolio.

Remember, the seller must deliver STMicroelectronics NV ADR stock to the call owner when a call is exercised.

The market value of STMicroelectronics NV ADR is measured differently than its book value, which is the value of STMicroelectronics that is recorded on the company's balance sheet. Investors also form their own opinion of STMicroelectronics' value that differs from its market value or its book value, called intrinsic value, which is STMicroelectronics' 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 STMicroelectronics' market value can be influenced by many factors that don't directly affect STMicroelectronics' underlying business (such as a pandemic or basic market pessimism), market value can vary widely from intrinsic value.
Please note, there is a significant difference between STMicroelectronics' value and its price as these two are different measures arrived at by different means. Investors typically determine if STMicroelectronics is a good investment by looking at such factors as earnings, sales, fundamental and technical indicators, competition as well as analyst projections. However, STMicroelectronics' price is the amount at which it trades on the open market and represents the number that a seller and buyer find agreeable to each party.
