Delta
• • Delta () is the sensitivity (rate of change) of the option price with respect to the underlying asset price. is the slope of the option value curve. Delta用于衡量期权价格相对于基础资产价格变动程度的敏感性 。是期权价值曲线的斜率。

Naked & Covered Positions(未保护&保护的头 寸)
Naked position Take NO action If S = $60, it costs the bank $1,000,000
Covered position Buy 100,000 shares today If S = $40, the loss is $900,000. Both strategies leave the bank exposed to significant risk

Consider the following two scenarios(考虑以下情 景): • A fund manager purchases put or call options to protect market fall or speculate on bullish market trends. •A bank writes a substantial amount of OTC call or put options to meet investors’ demands. In both cases, a well understanding of the sensitivity of option value to risk factors is important.

Properties of Delta (Cont.)
• Moneyness and Delta
– Deep in-the-money call: delta 1.0(深度实值看涨期权) Reason: it is extremely likely that the option will be in the money at maturity – In-the-money call: delta > 0.5(实值看涨期权) Reason: It has more than 50% chance to end in in the money at maturity – At-the-money call: delta 0.5(两平期权) Reason: There is 50% chance that the option will be in the money – Out-the-money call: delta < 0.5 (虚值看涨期权) Reason: It has less than 50% chance to end up in the money – Deep out-of-the-money call: delta 0 (虚值看涨期权) – Reason: It is extremely likely that the option will never be in the money

Both are large compared to the risk premiums

A Stop-Loss Strategy(止损策略)
x
This involves: • Buying 100,000 shares as soon as price reaches $50 • Selling 100,000 shares as soon as price falls below $50 This deceptively simple hedging strategy does not work well (transactions costs, discontinuity of prices, and the bid-ask bounce kills it)

Properties of Delta( Delta的性质)
• Signs of delta – delta for call > 0; delta for put < 0.(看涨期权的Delta>0,看跌期权的
Delta<0)
– The negative delta means that a long put position should be hedged with a long position in the underlying stock, and a short put position should be hedged with a short position in the underlying stocks. – 负的Delta意味着多头的看跌期权头寸要用多头的股票来对冲,反之亦然

Delta Meaning of Delta
• Delta measures the likely change in the option price given $1 change in the underlying asset. A delta of 0.6 means that when the stock price changes by $1, the option price changes by $0.6. Delta衡量当标的资产价格变化1单位时期权价格的变动 Consider a portfolio: long one call, price c, and short shares: value VP = c - S.
No.ofstocks( 400) C ( $0.8) hedgeratio delta NumberofCalls ( 500) S ($1.0)
• If IBM price goes up by $1 (a gain of $400 on the shares purchased), the option price goes up by $0.8 (a loss of $400), and vice versa.

Introduction
• We have learned that 6 factors affecting option prices. • 4 factors are the main sources of uncertainty in option markets. • 有4个因素是期权市场不确定性的主要来源。 • The measured impact of these 4 factors on option prices are called risk parameters (Greeks). • This lecture focuses on – How these risk parameters are measured(风险参数怎 么测量) – How the values of risk parameters are affected(风险 参数对价值的影响) – How to hedge a derivative portfolio(怎么对冲衍生品 组合的风险)

Delta Hedging( Delta对冲) • In the above example, the delta of the option position is 0.8 * (-500) = -400; the delta of the stock is 1, and the long position in 400 shares has a delta of 400. • The portfolio is delta-hedged. The total position is termed as delta neutral (with a delta of zero). • Delta hedging allows banks etc to write options without taking risk (wrt asset price changes) • Delta hedging involves maintaining a delta neutral portfolio, and the hedge position must be frequently rebalanced (the slope is changing)

Delta is also a hedge ratio (see the example).

Example
• If you wrote 500 IBM call options with a delta of 0.8, when IMB share rises by $1, you would lose $400. If you want to hedge the option perfectly, you need to buy 400 IBM shares. • S ($1) * No. of stocks (400) = C ($0.8) * No. of calls (500), or
