the Greeks in full
The full first-order treatment the track deferred: delta (sensitivity to the underlying), theta (sensitivity to time), vega (sensitivity to volatility), and rho (sensitivity to interest rates), plus how each changes with moneyness, time and volatility. The Greeks are the derivatives of the option's price with respect to each input - the precise, quantitative version of everything module 1 taught in words, and the language options risk is actually managed in.
This lesson is part of the advanced modules.
Modules 6 to 8 are included with a paid account. The definitional summary above is the whole of this page until then.
