Analyzing Exxon's in-the-money options over time can help investors to take a profitable long position in Exxon regardless of its overall volatility. This is especially true when Exxon's options are deep in the money. These options can be identified using deltas that are over 0.75.

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

Exxon Mobil Corp In The Money Call Balance

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

Most options investors, including buyers and sellers of Exxon's calls and puts, are not very successful. It is estimated that an average options trader loses somewhere between 80% to 90% of the time. Exxon's option open interest and volume spread between outstanding puts and calls are regarded by many investors as reliable indicators of the overall future market direction.

Rule 16 of the current Exxon contract

Base on the Rule 16, the options market is currently suggesting that Exxon Mobil Corp will have an average daily up or down price movement of about 0.0381% per day over the life of the 2024-11-29 option contract. With Exxon trading at USD 117.66, that is roughly USD 0.0449. If you think that the market is fully incorporating Exxon's daily price movement you should consider buying Exxon Mobil Corp options at the current volatility level of 0.61%. But if you have an opposite viewpoint you should avoid it and even consider selling them.
  
Purchasing Exxon options can give investors a meaningful hedge against losses and, therefore, could be used conservatively to decrease the volatility of your portfolio. However, many options could also amount to little more than gambling, significantly enhancing your overall portfolio risk. One simple example of these aggressive strategies is the sale of "uncovered" Exxon calls. Remember, the seller must deliver Exxon Mobil Corp stock to the call owner when a call is exercised.

The market value of Exxon Mobil Corp is measured differently than its book value, which is the value of Exxon that is recorded on the company's balance sheet. Investors also form their own opinion of Exxon's value that differs from its market value or its book value, called intrinsic value, which is Exxon'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 Exxon's market value can be influenced by many factors that don't directly affect Exxon's 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 Exxon's value and its price as these two are different measures arrived at by different means. Investors typically determine if Exxon is a good investment by looking at such factors as earnings, sales, fundamental and technical indicators, competition as well as analyst projections. However, Exxon's 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.
