Prediction based on Rule 16 of the current Starwood contract

Based on the Rule 16, the options market is currently suggesting that Starwood Property Trust will have an average daily up or down price movement of about 0.0225% per day over the life of the 2026-03-20 option contract. With Starwood Property trading at USD 18.37, that is roughly USD 0.004133 .

But if you have an opposite viewpoint you should avoid it and even consider selling them.

Open Interest Against 2026-03-20 Starwood Option Contracts

Although open interest is a measure utilized in the options markets, it could be used to forecast Starwood Property's spot prices because the number of available contracts in the market changes daily, and new contracts can be created or liquidated at will. Since open interest in Starwood Property's options reflects these daily shifts, investors could use the patterns of these changes to develop long and short-term trading strategies for Starwood Property stock based on available contracts left at the end of a trading day.
Please note that to derive more accurate forecasting about market movement from the current Starwood Property's open interest, investors have to compare it to Starwood Property's spot prices. As Ford's stock price increases, high open interest indicates that money is entering the market, and the market is strongly bullish. Conversely, if the price of Starwood Property is decreasing and there is high open interest, that is a sign that the bearish trend will continue, and investors may react by taking short positions in Starwood. So, decreasing or low open interest during a bull market indicates that investors are becoming uncertain of the depth of the bullish trend, and a reversal in sentiment will likely follow.
