Chipotle Mexican Maximum Pain Price Across 2025-03-21 Option Contracts

Max pain usually refers to a trading concept that asserts that market manipulation can cause the market price of particular securities such as Chipotle Mexican close to expiration to expire worthless.

By contrast, Chipotle Mexican's option sellers may reap the most after selling more options than buying, causing them to expire worthless.

In The Money vs. Out of Money Option Contracts on Chipotle Mexican

Analyzing Chipotle Mexican's in-the-money options over time can help investors to take a profitable long position in Chipotle Mexican regardless of its overall volatility. This is especially true when Chipotle Mexican's options are deep in the money. These options can be identified using deltas that are over 0.75.

Chipotle Mexican Grill In The Money Call Balance

When Chipotle Mexican's strike price is surpassing the current stock price, the option contract against Chipotle Mexican Grill stock is said to be in the money. When it comes to buying Chipotle Mexican'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 Chipotle Mexican Grill 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.

If you think that the market is fully incorporating Chipotle Mexican's daily price movement you should consider buying Chipotle Mexican Grill options at the current volatility level of 0.5%.

The market value of Chipotle Mexican Grill is measured differently than its book value, which is the value of Chipotle that is recorded on the company's balance sheet. Investors also form their own opinion of Chipotle Mexican's value that differs from its market value or its book value, called intrinsic value, which is Chipotle Mexican'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 Chipotle Mexican's market value can be influenced by many factors that don't directly affect Chipotle Mexican'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 Chipotle Mexican's value and its price as these two are different measures arrived at by different means. Investors typically determine if Chipotle Mexican is a good investment by looking at such factors as earnings, sales, fundamental and technical indicators, competition as well as analyst projections. However, Chipotle Mexican'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.
