【Option Vol/OI Turnover】Description

"Volume" refers to the number of contracts traded in a given period, and "open interest" denotes the number of contracts that are active, or not settled. 2.Things to be considered Scenario 1: Generally speaking, a rising volume and rising open interest both indicate a liquid market with many buyers and sellers for a particular option.

【30 Days' Implied Volatility】Description
1.What is 30 Days' Implied Volatility We use all options in the option chain to calculate the 30-days' implied volatility. It means a stock's implied volatility in the next 30 days. Also, we calculate IV/HisV and IV percentile to help to compare whether today's IV is high or low. 2.How to use There're many strategies to use 30 Days' IV. For example, before the earnings report, the 30 Days' IV is high and IV percentile is 100.0, which means IV is at a record high compared with the past year. The market is pricing a volatile movement on the stock and making option prices fluctuate. On the other hand, after the earnings report, IV tends to fall to mean value, causing option prices to plummet. So we can also use the straddle strategy to profit from IV change. If a stock's IV is higher than ano
