Scoring the alternatives This is just a random example: do not follow it! JULY EXPIRA- TION YOUR TEAM SCORE QUALITY A-E PRICE A-E IMPACT MARGIN ALTERNATIVE PRICE TC COEFF. CASH Buy stock HI n/a n/a n/a LOW OUT NO Buyback stock HI n/a n/a n/a LOW OUT YES (-) July Buy calls LOW A > E A > E MEDIUM OUT NO cheaper July Buyback calls LOW A > E A > E MEDIUM OUT YES (-) cheaper July Sell puts LOW E > A E > A MEDIUM IN NO cheaper July Sell short puts LOW E > A E > A HI IN YES (+) cheaper
In summary to tune your ST consider: 1) Frequency of recalibration (hedging today?) 2) size of portfolio delta imbalance (do we need to hedge?) 3) price of security and available cash (do we have the money?) 4) closeness to max margins (can we borrow more?) 5) delta of security (how many?) 6) transaction costs (can we afford it?) 7) quality of hedge (fit on chart) 8) effect on AP portfolio and CAccount (grows/shrinks?) 9) risk of going out of the money or grow out of control
