Core Scientific Common In The Money Call Balance

When Core Scientific's strike price is surpassing the current stock price, the option contract against Core Scientific Common stock is said to be in the money. When it comes to buying Core Scientific'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 Core Scientific Common 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.

Core Scientific'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. Using current Core Scientific's option volume and open interest to make an investment decision is considered a contrarian-sentiment measure that can be utilized in many timing strategies in both derivative and spot marketplace.

Rule 16 of the current Core contract

Base on the Rule 16, the options market is currently suggesting that Core Scientific Common will have an average daily up or down price movement of about 0.0588% per day over the life of the 2026-04-17 option contract. With Core Scientific trading at USD 17.87, that is roughly USD 0.0105. If you think that the market is fully incorporating Core Scientific's daily price movement you should consider buying Core Scientific Common options at the current volatility level of 0.94%. But if you have an opposite viewpoint you should avoid it and even consider selling them.
Purchasing Core Scientific 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" Core calls. Remember, the seller must deliver Core Scientific Common stock to the call owner when a call is exercised.
