Market Volatility

Making Option Volatility Work For You

Volatility is one of six variables used to price options, but it’s the only one that’s not universally accepted by all market participants. So it’s a must-know factor.

Calculating options volatility can be done in various ways. Some traders like to use a 10-day, 30-day, or 50-day historical volatility in pricing options, while others like to use the current at-the-money implied volatility of the front-month options. However it’s calculated, the idea is to buy when the volatility is low.
