And someone suggested:
What is implied volatility (IV)? —
From Investopedia: IV is a forward-looking measure of how much the market expects the price to change before an option expires. Higher IV means higher option prices. Big swings in stock prices lead to higher IV, which in turn increases option prices. If prices stay steady, IV drops.
IV is just one of many factors (called 'greeks') used to price options.
What is historical volatility (HV)? —
From Investopedia: HV measures how much the stock price has varied from its average over a period. It shows how 'risky' a stock or option is. Higher HV means more risk. Lower HV means it's safer.
If anyone wants to add knowledge or correct mistakes, feel free.
What is 'Max Pain'? —
In this context, max pain is the price where most options expire worthless. Some believe market players push prices to this point to hurt option buyers.
Final thought —
This data shouldn't be used alone to make decisions (obligatory #NFA disclaimer). It's just one piece of a vast, complex puzzle that's beyond my grasp. Mostly, it's just to keep folks updated on key option metrics used by writers to trick us on a weekly or quarterly basis if we decide to play options.
