The Long Calls/Puts page allows you to view these options for the nearest expiration date. Barchart Premier subscribers can view other expiration dates (select the expiration month/year using the drop-down menu at the top of the page). Weekly expiration dates are labeled with a (w) in the expiration date list.
You may add a filter on this page to show only a specific strike price. This allows you to drill down to inspect only the options you are interested in viewing.
Options information is delayed a minimum of 15 minutes, and is updated at least once every 15-minutes through-out the day.
Note: 0DTE Friday option expirations are removed from the website at 7:45pm ET each Friday.
The screener displays probability calculations based on the delayed stock price at the time the strategy is updated. The new day's options data will start populating the screener at approximately 8:55a CT. Strikes that have not traded today are excluded from the results.
Long Call Options
The long call strategy involves the outright purchase of a call option where the goal is to profit from appreciation in the price of the underlying stock or index. Maximum risk is limited to the premium paid for the option while max profit is unlimited as a stock can theoretically rise indefinitely. The trader needs to also consider the expiration in that the price of the underlying will need to rise prior to the termination of trading for the option to appreciate in value.
Greek and IV Considerations
Long calls have positive delta, and with all things constant, will rise in value as the underlying increases in price. As the calls are purchased, long options have negative theta and will erode in value over time. Increases in implied volatility will tend to raise the prices of options, as calls are owned an increase in IV will benefit the price appreciation of the call.
Calculations
- Break Even (Ask) : Strike + Ask
- Net Debit: Ask * 100, the price paid is the price of the option (ask) multiplied by option's number of underlying shares
- Max Profit: Unlimited
Long Put Options
The long put strategy involves the outright purchase of a put option where the goal is to profit from depreciation in the price of the underlying stock or index Maximum risk is limited to the price of the put option and max profit is the difference between the strike and the price of the put. The trader needs to also consider the expiration in that the price of the underlying will need to decrease prior to the termination of trading for the option to appreciate in value.
Greek and IV Considerations
Long puts have negative delta, and with all things constant, will rise in value as the underlying decreases in price. As the puts are purchased, long options have negative theta and will erode in value over time. Increases in implied volatility will tend to raise the prices of options, as puts are owned an increase in IV will benefit the price appreciation of the put.
Calculations
- Break Even (Ask) : Strike - Ask
- Net Debit: Ask * 100, the price paid is the price of the option (ask) multiplied by option's number of underlying shares
- Max Profit: Strike Price - Ask, the price of the underlying can only trade as low as zero.
Options information is delayed a minimum of 15 minutes, and is updated at least once every 15-minutes through-out the day. The new day's options data will start populating the screener at approximately 8:55a CT.
Data fields displayed include:
- Price~: the delayed stock price at the time the strategy is updated for the underlying equity.
- Expiration Date: the option expiration date.
- Strike: the price at which the underlying security can be bought if the option is exercised.
- Moneyness - the relative position of the underlying asset's last price to the strike price. When a call option's Moneyness is negative, the underlying last price is less than the strike price; when positive, the underlying last price is greater than the strike price. When a put option's Moneyness is negative, the underlying last price is greater than the strike price; when positive, the underlying last price is less than the strike price.
- Ask - The lowest price that a SELLER is willing to receive, or the price at which you can buy the option.
- BE(Ask) - Strike Price + Ask Price
- Net Debit - Ask * 100, the price paid is the price of the option (ask) multiplied by option's number of underlying shares
- Volume - the total number of options traded in the current day for a contract.
- Open Interest - the total number of open option contracts in the market for a particular contract. The more popular the contract is with options traders, the greater the Open Interest. An opening transaction will increase the Open Interest, and a closing transaction will decrease it.
- Implied Volatility (IV)- the estimated volatility of the option strike over the period of the option.
- Delta - Delta measures the amount an option price will change as a result of a $1.00 price change of the underlying security.
- ITM Probability -Probability that the underlying will be above the strike at expiration
- OTM Probability - Probability that the underlying will be below the strike at expiration
- Last Trade - the date/time of the last trade for the option. Options information is delayed a minimum of 15 minutes, and is updated at least once every 15-minutes through-out the day.
