The delta of a derivative is the rate of change in the price of a derivative with the price of the underlying.... more on: Delta

In options theory, the sensitivity of the value of an option to the value of the underlying instrument into which it exercises. Defined as V/S, where 'V' is the value of the option and 'S' is the value of the underlying.

The sensitivity of a warrant's theoretical value to a change in the price of the underlying security.

measures the change in the value of the reserves portfolios for each one basis point shift in the relevant yield curve.

The amount by which an option price will change for a unit change in the underlying future's price.

The delta of an option describes its premium's sensitivity to changes in the price of the underlying instrument.

The unit change in the price of an option (the premium) for a unit change in the price of the under-lying security.

Drawn from the theoretical options pricing model (see Black Scholes), the delta of an option shows the rate of change in an option premium with respect to a change in price of the underlying asset or security. For example, the premium on an option with a delta of 0.5 will move by 0.5p for every 1p move in the price of the underlying. Delta can also be defined as either (i) the probability that the option will expire in-the-money, or (ii) the theoretical number of futures contracts of which the holder is either long (with a call option) or short (put option).

Measures the rate of change in an option's theoretical value for a one-unit change in the underlying stock's price. Calls have positive deltas and puts have negative deltas. For example, a call option with a value of $2.50 and a delta of .25 would increase to $2.75 if the stock price increased by $1.

This is the amount by which the price of an option should change against a given change in the value of the underlying instrument.

The rate in change of option premium due to a change in price of the underlying securities.

The amount by which the options premium changes if the underlying security changes by one unit.

The sensitivity of an option's theoretical value to a change in the price of the underlying futures contract. Specifically, the expected change in an option's price given a one-unit change in the price of the underlying futures contract. An option's delta is always between 0 and 1.00 and changes as market conditions change. A futures contract always has a delta of 1.00.

The relationship between the movement in the warrant price and the movement in the underlying asset or instrument. For example, in the case of equity warrants a delta of one (1) means the value of the warrant changes by one cent for every one cent change in the underlying share price. A delta of 0.5 means the value of the warrant changes by 0.5 cents for every one cent change in the underlying share price.

It is a measure of the sensitivity of an option's price with respect to the price of the underlying security. It is calculated by the change in the option price divided by change in price of the underlying security. Call options have positive deltas, while put options have negative deltas.

The change in the price of a buyer’s right to purchase a given amount of stock at a specific price (option contract) in relation to the change in the price of the stock.

The position equivalent in straight futures contracts of a more complex derivative contract or combination of contracts, when measured in terms of price risk for a small price change from the current price. Often used as shorthand for price exposure in an option dealer's position.

The rate of change of the theoretical price of an option with respect to a 1 unit move in the price of the underlying instrument. Also referred to as a hedge ratio because the value of Delta represents the ratio of options contracts to underlying instrument contracts required to establish a neutral option hedge.

The amount an option will change in price for a one point move in the underlying security.

A measure of how much an option premium changes, given a unit change in the underlying futures price. Delta often is interpreted as the probability that the option will be in-the-money by expiration.

A fractional value which references the rate of increase (or decrease) in an option premium as the market value of the futures contract increases or decreases. The option premium will rise or fall according to this Delta value.

The delta of an option measures the change in the option price for any given change in the price of the underlying and thus enables exposure to the underlying to be determined. The delta is between 0 and +1 for calls and between 0 and -1 for puts (so a call option with a delta of 0.5 will increase in price by 1 tick for every 2 tick increase in the underlying).

The ratio of the change in price of an option to the change in price of the underlying asset

A measure of the price-change relationship between an option and the underlying futures.

option risk parameter that measures the sensitivity of an option price to changes in the price of its underlying instrument.

The rate of change of an option's price with respect to the price movement of the underlying asset. The delta of a call is always positive, while the delta of a put is always negative.

The change in the value of the option premium made fully paid by the capitalisation of reserves and given relative to the instantaneous change in the value of the; underlying instrument, expressed as a coefficient.

A ratio comparing the change in the price of an option to that of a change in the underlying asset.

A statistical measure of the relationship between an option contract's price movement to the price movement of the underlying futures contract or stock price. To illustrate, if the option's underlying stock increased by 2 points and the call option increased by 1 point, the call option would have a delta of .5. As an in-the-money option near expiration, it advances to a delta of 1. See: In The Money

The correlation factor between a futures price fluctuation and the change in premium for the option on that futures contract. Delta changes from moment to moment as the option premium changes.

The change in price of an option for every one-point move in the price of the underlying security. A call option with a delta of 0.5 will increase by 50 points for every 100 points that the underlying rises and lose 50 points for every 100 that the underlying falls. Be aware that Deltas change as the option moves up and down in value

This measures the change of an option price given a change in the currency price. This can also be used to estimate the profits and losses of the option. An option delta of .5 would indicate that the long option holder is long the equivalent 50% of the notional. The delta is another way to measure how "probable" it is that the option will end up in the money.

The amount by which the price of an option changes for every dollar move in the underlying instrument.

The amount by which an option's price will change for a unit change in the underlying futures price. With the exception of deep-in-the-money options, the change in the option premium is usually less than the change in the futures price. The further an option is out-of-the-money, the smaller the change in the premium and the smaller the delta.

The rate of change of fair value of an option with respect to the change in price of the underlying. One of the Greeks.

The rate of change in option premium for a given change in the price of the underlying. Equal to the change in option premium divided by the change in underlying price.

For options, also called the neutral hedge ratio. Expresses the expected change in the option price, given a one-unit change in the price of the underlying contract

A statistical measure of the price movement of an option contract in relation to the price movement of the underlying security. For example, if the underlying security increased by 2 points and the price of a call option on that security increased by 1 point that call option would have a Delta of 1/2.

Delta measures "how much the warrant price will move for a one dollar move in the underlying security". The delta of a call warrant has an upper bound of 1.00 (decimal format) or 100% (percent format) and a lower bound of zero. A call warrant with a delta of 1.00 will move up or down one full point for each full point move up or down in the price of the underlying security. A call warrant with a delta of zero should move negligibly, even if the underlying security makes a relatively large move. Warrants that are at-the-money have a delta of approximately 0.50. For put warrants, the delta lies between -1.00 (or -100%) and zero. A rise in the underlying security will bring about a drop in the price of a put warrant.

The proportion by which the price of an option changes in response to a change in the price of the underlying asset. The delta measures the sensitivity of the option's price to changes in the asset's price.

The amount by which a derivative security will change in price, given a change in price in the underlying instrument. It is the slope of the curve that relates the derivative's price to the underlying instrument's price.

The relationship between the expected change in the call warrant price and the corresponding change in the underlying share price. Delta = Change in the call warrant price Change in the underlying share price A delta of 0.50 implies that if the value of the underlying share changes by RM 0.10, then the value of the call warrant should change by RM 0.05. Zero-strike call warrants have a delta of 1.

The first derivative of the stock. Delta has a three pronged definition. The first is percentage change. The delta number is given as a percentage, meaning how much in percentage terms the option price will change with a movement in the stock. A 50 delta option will move 50% the amount the stock moves. If the stock moves $1.00, than the option moves $.50. A 30 delta option moves $.30 on a $1.00 movement in the stock, and so on. Delta can also be defined as percentage chance. This is used to describe the percentage chance that the option will end up in-the-money. A 90 delta option has a 90% chance of finishing in-the-money. Finally, delta can also be defined as hedge ratio. The hedge ratio is the amount of equivalent stock needed to properly hedge a position.

The amount by which an option's price will change for a one-point change in price by the underlying entity. Call options have positive deltas, while put options have negative deltas. Technically, the delta is an instantaneous measure of the option's price change, so that the delta will be altered for even fractional changes by the underlying entity. See also Hedge Ratio.

The rate of change in the theoretical price of an option with respect to a change in the price of the underlying instrument. Sometimes referred to as a hedge ratio as the Delta value represents the ratio of options contracts to underlying instrument contracts needed to reach a neutral option hedge position.

The relationship between an option's price and the price of the underlying stock or futures contract is called its delta. If the delta is 1, for example, the relationship of the prices is 1 to 1. That means there's a $1 change in the option price for every $1 change in the price of the investment. With a call option, an increase in the price of an underlying investment typically results in an increase in the price of the option. With a put option, however, an increase in the option's price is usually triggered by a decrease in the price of the underlying investment, since investors buy put options expecting stock prices to fall.

Measure of the sensitivity of an option's value to changes in the underlying values.

The amount of change of an option's price or theoretical value for a unit change in the price of the underlying security, commodity, currency, index or futures contract.

The change in price of a call option in relation to the change in price of the underlying security.

The measure of change in the value of an option compared with a change in the price of the underlying.

A measure indicating the sensitivity of an option’s price movements in the underlying security. Calls have positive deltas. Puts have negative deltas.

The expected change in an option's price given a one-unit change in the price of the underlying futures contract or physical commodity. For example, an option with a delta of 0.5 would change $.50 when the underlying commodity moves $1.00.

The sensitivity of an option's value to a change in the price of the underlying futures contract also referred to as an option's futures-equivalent position. Deltas are positive for calls, and negative for puts. Deltas of deep in-the-money options are approximately equal to one; deltas of at-the-money options are 0.5; and deltas of deep out-of-the-money options approach zero.

A measure of exposure to an underlier.
