First Solar Maximum Pain Price Across 2026-01-16 Option Contracts

Max pain occurs when First Solar's market makers reach a net positive position across all First Solar's options at a strike price where option holders stand to lose the most money.

In The Money vs. Out of Money Option Contracts on First Solar

Analyzing First Solar's in-the-money options over time can help investors to take a profitable long position in First Solar regardless of its overall volatility. This is especially true when First Solar's options are deep in the money. These options can be identified using deltas that are over 0.75. Deep in-the-money First Solar's options could be used as guardians of the underlying stock as they move almost dollar for dollar with First Solar's stock while costing only a fraction of its price.

First Solar In The Money Call Balance

When First Solar's strike price is surpassing the current stock price, the option contract against First Solar stock is said to be in the money. When it comes to buying First Solar's options that are 'In the Money' or 'Out of the Money', the choice depends on your outlook for the underlying security, financial situation, and what you are trying to achieve.
While 'out-of-the-money' option contracts written on First Solar are typically viewed as the more aggressive, there are potential upsides to purchasing these types of options contracts. For one, the cost to buy an 'Out of the Money' option is lower than the cost to buy an 'In the Money' option. This cost-benefit is due to the fact that at the time of the purchase, 'Out of the Money' contracts have no intrinsic value. So, while the potential for a 100% loss is more significant, the cost and risk to enter the trade are lower.

First Current Options Market Mood

First Solar's open interest and total value indicators provide investors with the necessary information to digest the overall options buildup for its expiring contracts. In addition, it helps First Stock's traders understand whether a recent fall or rise in the market is unreasonable and if the time has come to take contrarian positions. These ratios are calculated based on options trading volumes and current open interest.

Put-to-Call Open Interest

Put-to-Call Volume

Unfortunately, most First Solar's options investors are not very successful. First Solar's option open interest and volume spread between outstanding puts and calls are regarded by many investors as reliable indicators of the overall future market direction.

Rule 16 of the current First contract

Base on the Rule 16, the options market is currently suggesting that First Solar will have an average daily up or down price movement of about 0.0375% per day over the life of the 2026-01-16 option contract. With First Solar trading at USD 226.85, that is roughly USD 0.0851. If you think that the market is fully incorporating First Solar's daily price movement you should consider buying First Solar options at the current volatility level of 0.6%. But if you have an opposite viewpoint you should avoid it and even consider selling them.
Purchasing First Solar options can give investors a meaningful hedge against losses and, therefore, could be used conservatively to decrease the volatility of your portfolio. However, many options could also amount to little more than gambling, significantly enhancing your overall portfolio risk. One simple example of these aggressive strategies is the sale of "uncovered" First calls. Remember, the seller must deliver First Solar stock to the call owner when a call is exercised.

First Solar Option Chain

When First Solar's strike price is surpassing the current stock price, the option contract against First Solar stock is said to be in the money. When it comes to buying options that are ITM or OTM, the choice depends on your outlook for the underlying security, financial situation, and what you are trying to achieve.
