In The Money vs. Out of Money Option Contracts on Evolution Petroleum

This is especially true when Evolution Petroleum's options are deep in the money. These options can be identified using deltas that are over 0.75.

Please note that buying 'in-the-money' options on Evolution Petroleum lessens the impact of time decay, as they carry both intrinsic and time value. So, even if Evolution Petroleum's value remains static through the expiration date, the investor can sell to close an 'in-the-money' option to avoid a potential loss. However, in-the-money Evolution Petroleum contracts are usually more expensive to enter than their out-of-the-money counterparts.
