Delta is a measure of the sensitivity of an option’s price changes relative to the changes in the underlying asset’s price. In other words, if the price of the underlying asset increases by 1 points, the price of the option will change by delta amount.
There are various Options Greeks like: Delta, Gamma, Vega, Rho, Theta.
A complete guide on how these #Option Greeks impact option price.
Delta is a measure of the sensitivity of an option’s price changes relative to the changes in the underlying asset’s price. In other words, if the price of the underlying asset increases by 1 points, the price of the option will change by delta amount.
As the options become ITM, the value of delta tends towards +1 for call and -1 for put.
Delta is important greeks to determine the hedge ratio for investors who want to hedge their portfolio.
Gamma (Γ) is a measure of the delta’s change relative to the changes in the price of the underlying asset.
If the price of the underlying asset increases by 1 points, the option’s delta will change by the gamma amount.
Long options (call/put) have positive Gamma.
Think like this, Delta is basically the velocity and gamma is acceleration as taught in the physics.
Vega (ν) is an option Greek that measures the sensitivity of an option price relative to the volatility of the underlying asset. If the volatility of the underlying asset increases by 1%, the option price will change by the vega amount.
Rising vega is a friend of option buyers and falling vega is a friend of option sellers.
Rho (ρ) measures the sensitivity of the option price relative to interest rates and it is least significant Option Greeks because option price are less sensitive to interest rate. If an interest rate increases by 1%, the option price will change by the rho amount.
Similarly, if the interest rate decrease, then the value of the call option will fall and the value of the put option will rise.
Theta (θ) is a measure of the sensitivity of the option price relative to the option’s time to maturity. If the option’s time to maturity decreases by one day, the option’s price will change by the theta amount.
Also, the value of the option for far expiry will be more than near expiry as it has more time left for expiry.
For me, the most important Greeks are Theta and Vega, as I am an option seller.

Stan Lee’s fictional superheroes lived in the real New York. Here’s where they lived, and why. https://t.co/oV1IGGN8R6
Stan Lee, who died Monday at 95, was born in Manhattan and graduated from DeWitt Clinton High School in the Bronx. His pulp-fiction heroes have come to define much of popular culture in the early 21st century.
Tying Marvel’s stable of pulp-fiction heroes to a real place — New York — served a counterbalance to the sometimes gravity-challenged action and the improbability of the stories. That was just what Stan Lee wanted. https://t.co/rDosqzpP8i
The New York universe hooked readers. And the artists drew what they were familiar with, which made the Marvel universe authentic-looking, down to the water towers atop many of the buildings. https://t.co/rDosqzpP8i
The Avengers Mansion was a Beaux-Arts palace. Fans know it as 890 Fifth Avenue. The Frick Collection, which now occupies the place, uses the address of the front door: 1 East 70th Street.
