Description

In today's From Theory to Practice, Dr. Jim Schultz continues his educational series on extrinsic value, focusing on volatility as the second key driver. He explains how higher implied volatility increases option prices through greater extrinsic value, creating selling opportunities for premium sellers.

For tomorrow's Non-Farm Payrolls report, Dr. Jim positions for potential market volatility with expected move butterflies in both SPX (one-day cycle) and gold futures (four-day cycle), both targeting downside moves. He adds a Lululemon (LULU) earnings butterfly to the upside as a potential hedge.
