Open Interest Against March 20th 2026 Option Contracts

NetEase 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 NetEase's lending market. For example, when NetEase'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 NetEase, he or she must hedge the risk by shorting NetEase stock over its option's life.
The chart above shows NetEase'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. NetEase's open interest chart also provides vital information regarding the liquidity of an option.

NetEase Maximum Pain Price Across 2026-03-20 Option Contracts

In The Money vs. Out of Money Option Contracts on NetEase

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

NetEase In The Money Call Balance

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

NetEase Current Options Market Mood

NetEase'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 NetEase 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.

Rule 16 of the current NetEase contract

Base on the Rule 16, the options market is currently suggesting that NetEase will have an average daily up or down price movement of about 0.03% per day over the life of the 2026-03-20 option contract. With NetEase trading at USD 137.62, that is roughly USD 0.0413. If you think that the market is fully incorporating NetEase's daily price movement you should consider buying NetEase options at the current volatility level of 0.48%. But if you have an opposite viewpoint you should avoid it and even consider selling them.
Purchasing NetEase 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" NetEase calls. Remember, the seller must deliver NetEase stock to the call owner when a call is exercised.
