Futures Options Feedback: Listener questions and comments
- Question from Cambel: Oh no! Did the millennials kill cheese? Are they coming for fluid milk next?
- Question from Inlo: Is it only possible to exercise a FOP that has the same month as the underlying future? If I?m long an April CL future do I also need an April put option? Or can I exercise a May CL option on a April CL future?
- Comment from Olivetrader2: I like the Thursday show, actually. I was supposed to be downtown but I couldn’t go. Listening to your show instead.
- Question from Sam Harris: Question for TWIFO. Hello Nick, Mark and Sean. Fun program. I particularly like the research guests since they usually bring up topics that are new to me. I was talking with a friend recently about exercise and settlement (nerds, I know). He brought up an interesting time frame to exercise an option – when it goes ITM and the spread is simply too wide. Exercise may actually be the cheaper option.
- Question from Mizander: Why exercise future option early? Doesn’t seem make much sense?
