The Long and Short of Futures Options: 2015 Highlights and Crude Oil Breakdown
from The Long & Short of Futures Options
Today, we are joined by Tom Boggs, Senior Director of Equity Options; Derek Samman, Global Head of Commodities and Options Products, and; Nick Howard, Founder and CEO of QuikStrike Looking Back at 2015: OCC 2015 cleared contract volume down 3% from 2014. A strong year for futures options. What kept futures options volume strong last year while overall equity options volume contracted? How is the current market turmoil impacting options trading/volume at CME? Which product categories are leading the charge so far in 2016. Spotlight on crude oil, WTI volatility skew, and put premium. Listener Mail: Listener questions and comments Question from JCanut - There is significant order flow in many weekly options products all the way into the final few days. Does this indicate there is potentially a market for daily listed options products? Would an exchange like CBOE or CME ever consider adding a daily options product to their lineup? Question from Mark C. - Great show on crude. Is the put premium still holding strong in WTI or is it going away?
