2. D. M. ChanceAn Introduction to Derivatives and Risk Management, 6th ed.Ch. 6: 2 Important Concepts in Chapter 6 n Profit equations and graphs for buying and selling stock, buying and selling calls, buying and selling puts, covered calls, protective puts and conversions/reversals n The effect of choosing different exercise prices n The effect of closing out an option position early versus holding to expiration

3. D. M. ChanceAn Introduction to Derivatives and Risk Management, 6th ed.Ch. 6: 3 Terminology and Notation n Note the following standard symbols u C = current call price, P = current put price u S 0 = current stock price, S T = stock price at expiration u T = time to expiration u X = exercise price    = profit from strategy n The number of calls, puts and stock is given as u N C = number of calls u N P = number of puts u N S = number of shares of stock

4. D. M. ChanceAn Introduction to Derivatives and Risk Management, 6th ed.Ch. 6: 4 Terminology and Notation (continued) n These symbols imply the following: u N C, N P, or N S > 0 implies buying (going long) u N C, N P, or N S < 0 implies selling (going short) n The Profit Equations u Profit equation for calls held to expiration   = N C [Max(0,S T - X) - C] For buyer of one call (N C = 1) this implies  = Max(0,S T - X) - CFor buyer of one call (N C = 1) this implies  = Max(0,S T - X) - C For seller of one call (N C = -1) this implies  = -Max(0,S T - X) + C For seller of one call (N C = -1) this implies  = -Max(0,S T - X) + C

ChanceAn Introduction to Derivatives and Risk Management, 6th ed.Ch. 6: 6 Terminology and Notation (continued) n The Profit Equations (continued) u Profit equation for stock   = N S [S T - S 0 ] For buyer of one share (N S = 1) this implies  = S T - S 0For buyer of one share (N S = 1) this implies  = S T - S 0 For short seller of one share (N S = -1) this implies  = -S T + S 0For short seller of one share (N S = -1) this implies  = -S T + S 0

7. D. M. ChanceAn Introduction to Derivatives and Risk Management, 6th ed.Ch. 6: 7 Terminology and Notation (continued) n Different Holding Periods u Three holding periods: T 1 < T 2 < T u For a given stock price at the end of the holding period, compute the theoretical value of the option using the Black-Scholes or other appropriate model. F Remaining time to expiration will be either T - T 1, T - T 2 or T - T = 0 (we have already covered the latter) F For a position closed out at T 1, the profit will be F where the closeout option price is taken from the Black-Scholes model for a given stock price at T 1.
