In The Money vs. Out of Money Option Contracts on Fortress Biotech

This is especially true when Fortress Biotech's options are deep in the money. These options can be identified using deltas that are over 0.75. Deep in-the-money Fortress Biotech's options could be used as guardians of the underlying stock as they move almost dollar for dollar with Fortress Biotech's stock while costing only a fraction of its price.

So, even if Fortress Biotech'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 Fortress Biotech contracts are usually more expensive to enter than their out-of-the-money counterparts. So keep in mind that while the payoffs on an in-the-money trade can be high, the investors could ultimately experience a more consequential loss if Fortress Stock moves the wrong way.
