It is designed to give you a complete snapshot of how the market is pricing risk and direction for this specific expiry.

2. How can I use this MDY options chain around key events?

Around earnings, macro data releases, or company-specific news, traders often focus on a single expiration such as 2026-09-18. By monitoring changes in implied volatility, volume, and open interest for each strike, you can see where traders are concentrating their bets and hedges.

3. What is the difference between in-the-money and out-of-the-money options here?

The ITM column highlights whether a contract is currently in-the-money for MDY: call options are ITM when their strike is below the current stock price, while put options are ITM when their strike is above the current stock price. ITM contracts have intrinsic value, while out-of-the-money options are purely time and volatility value.

4. How should I read implied volatility (IV) in this MDY options table?

Implied volatility reflects how much movement the market expects for MDY between now and 2026-09-18. Higher IV typically means options are more expensive and the market is pricing in larger potential moves. You can compare IV across strikes and between calls and puts to identify skew – for example, expensive downside puts may indicate demand for crash protection, while rich upside calls can signal speculative interest.

5. Can this single-expiry chain replace a full multi-expiry options overview?
