Options premium = intrinsic value + extrinsic value. Intrinsic value is the in-the-money part. Extrinsic value is the time + volatility premium. Examples Call at $95 with stock at $100 = $5 intrinsic. Put at $105 with stock at $100 = $5 intrinsic. Formula Call intrinsic = stock - strike Put intrinsic = strike - stock Extrinsic = option price - intrinsic

Thank you for posting this! I like selling in the money calls as a way of collecting premium and also getting a lot of downside protection
