In The Money vs. Out of Money Option Contracts on Nio
Analyzing Nio's in-the-money options over time can help investors to take a profitable long position in Nio regardless of its overall volatility. This is especially true when Nio's options are deep in the money. These options can be identified using deltas that are over 0.75. Deep in-the-money Nio's options could be used as guardians of the underlying stock as they move almost dollar for dollar with Nio's stock while costing only a fraction of its price.
Please note that buying 'in-the-money' options on Nio lessens the impact of time decay, as they carry both intrinsic and time value. So, even if Nio'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 Nio 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 Nio Stock moves the wrong way.
Nio Class A In The Money Call Balance
When Nio's strike price is surpassing the current stock price, the option contract against Nio Class A stock is said to be in the money. When it comes to buying Nio's options that are 'In the Money' or 'Out of the Money', the choice depends on your outlook for the underlying security, financial situation, and what you are trying to achieve.
While 'out-of-the-money' option contracts written on Nio Class A 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.
Nio Current Options Market Mood
Nio's open interest and total value indicators provide investors with the necessary information to digest the overall options buildup for its expiring contracts. In addition, it helps Nio Stock's traders understand whether a recent fall or rise in the market is unreasonable and if the time has come to take contrarian positions. These ratios are calculated based on options trading volumes and current open interest.
Put-to-Call Open Interest
Put-to-Call Volume
Most options investors, including buyers and sellers of Nio's calls and puts, are not very successful. It is estimated that an average options trader loses somewhere between 80% to 90% of the time. Nio's option open interest and volume spread between outstanding puts and calls are regarded by many investors as reliable indicators of the overall future market direction.
Rule 16 of the current Nio contract
Base on the Rule 16, the options market is currently suggesting that Nio Class A will have an average daily up or down price movement of about 0.0675% per day over the life of the 2026-01-16 option contract. With Nio trading at USD 7.46, that is roughly USD 0.005036. If you think that the market is fully incorporating Nio's daily price movement you should consider buying Nio Class A options at the current volatility level of 1.08%. But if you have an opposite viewpoint you should avoid it and even consider selling them.
Purchasing Nio options can give investors a meaningful hedge against losses and, therefore, could be used conservatively to decrease the volatility of your portfolio. However, many options could also amount to little more than gambling, significantly enhancing your overall portfolio risk. One simple example of these aggressive strategies is the sale of "uncovered" Nio calls. Remember, the seller must deliver Nio Class A stock to the call owner when a call is exercised.

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

The market value of Nio Class A is measured differently than its book value, which is the value of Nio that is recorded on the company's balance sheet. Investors also form their own opinion of Nio's value that differs from its market value or its book value, called intrinsic value, which is Nio's true underlying value. Investors use various methods to calculate intrinsic value and buy a stock when its market value falls below its intrinsic value. Because Nio's market value can be influenced by many factors that don't directly affect Nio's underlying business (such as a pandemic or basic market pessimism), market value can vary widely from intrinsic value.
Please note, there is a significant difference between Nio's value and its price as these two are different measures arrived at by different means. Investors typically determine if Nio is a good investment by looking at such factors as earnings, sales, fundamental and technical indicators, competition as well as analyst projections. However, Nio's price is the amount at which it trades on the open market and represents the number that a seller and buyer find agreeable to each party.
