Applied Opt In The Money Call Balance

When Applied Opt's strike price is surpassing the current stock price, the option contract against Applied Opt stock is said to be in the money.

While 'out-of-the-money' option contracts written on Applied Opt are typically viewed as the more aggressive, there are potential upsides to purchasing these types of options contracts. For one, the cost to buy an 'Out of the Money' option is lower than the cost to buy an 'In the Money' option. This cost-benefit is due to the fact that at the time of the purchase, 'Out of the Money' contracts have no intrinsic value. So, while the potential for a 100% loss is more significant, the cost and risk to enter the trade are lower.
