Vistra Energy Corp In The Money Call Balance
When Vistra Energy's strike price is surpassing the current stock price, the option contract against Vistra Energy Corp stock is said to be in the money. When it comes to buying Vistra Energy'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 Vistra Energy Corp are typically viewed as the more aggressive, there are potential upsides to purchasing these types of options contracts.

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.
