Considerando la volatilidad en opciones de materias primas

Traducido automáticamente del original · Leer el original (English)

La volatilidad implícita en varias opciones de materias primas parece estar aumentando. Para aquellos que usan opciones para expresar puntos de vista o cubrirse, ¿cómo están abordando esto? ¿Vendiendo primas bajo el supuesto de reversión a la media, o comprando en escenarios de posibles rupturas?

Anyone considering ratio spreads here? You get to sell some premium while still maintaining some upside or downside protection if things really move.

Selling premium is tempting, but with the current geopolitical landscape, a breakout could be quite violent. I'm hesitant to put on large short vol positions right now.

Definitely noticing the uptick in IV. I'm leaning towards selling some out-of-the-money calls in commodities where I think the upside is capped, hoping for that mean reversion to kick in.

It's a tough call. Historically, elevated IV often does revert, but sometimes it signals the start of a trend. I'm staying patient, observing price action before committing.
