Open Interest Against March 20th 2026 Option Contracts

Lockheed Martin option prices can potentially be used to forecast stock returns because most option chains provide information not only about the current prices but also about the future conditions in Lockheed Martin's lending market. For example, when Lockheed Martin's puts are not actively trading or completely missing in the marketplace, investors can use it to internalize expected shorting costs. So if an investor is writing a put option on Lockheed Martin, he or she must hedge the risk by shorting Lockheed Martin stock over its option's life.
The chart above shows Lockheed Martin's distribution of open interest by maturity on contracts that have not yet been settled. The area between the two highest points is the projection of the price at expiration. Lockheed Martin's open interest chart also provides vital information regarding the liquidity of an option. If there is no open interest for Lockheed Martin's option, there is no secondary market available for investors to trade.

Lockheed Martin Maximum Pain Price Across 2026-03-20 Option Contracts

Max pain occurs when Lockheed Martin's market makers reach a net positive position across all Lockheed Martin's options at a strike price where option holders stand to lose the most money. By contrast, Lockheed Martin'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 Lockheed Martin

Analyzing Lockheed Martin's in-the-money options over time can help investors to take a profitable long position in Lockheed Martin regardless of its overall volatility. This is especially true when Lockheed Martin's options are deep in the money. These options can be identified using deltas that are over 0.75. Deep in-the-money Lockheed Martin's options could be used as guardians of the underlying stock as they move almost dollar for dollar with Lockheed Martin's stock while costing only a fraction of its price.

Lockheed Martin In The Money Call Balance

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

Lockheed Current Options Market Mood

Lockheed Martin'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 Lockheed 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 Lockheed Martin'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. Lockheed Martin'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 Lockheed contract

Base on the Rule 16, the options market is currently suggesting that Lockheed Martin will have an average daily up or down price movement of about 0.0244% per day over the life of the 2026-03-20 option contract. With Lockheed Martin trading at USD 518.44, that is roughly USD 0.13. If you think that the market is fully incorporating Lockheed Martin's daily price movement you should consider buying Lockheed Martin options at the current volatility level of 0.39%. But if you have an opposite viewpoint you should avoid it and even consider selling them.
Purchasing Lockheed Martin 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" Lockheed calls. Remember, the seller must deliver Lockheed Martin stock to the call owner when a call is exercised.

Lockheed Martin Option Chain

When Lockheed Martin's strike price is surpassing the current stock price, the option contract against Lockheed Martin stock is said to be in the money. When it comes to buying options that are ITM or OTM, the choice depends on your outlook for the underlying security, financial situation, and what you are trying to achieve.
