Schweser Wrong?

Hi, Book 5 p 82. Shoudn’t the option price in the example be 0,4$ (not 4$)? We have: at time 0: 60 000 sh x 50$ each = 3 000 000$ we sell 100 000 x 0,4$ each option = 40 000$ at time 1: we have: 60 000 sh x 51$ each = 3 060 000$ we lose 100 000$, becasue = 100 000 options x 1$ (51 - 50 = 1, we must sell sh for 50$) so… we have totally 2 960 000$ at time 1 + 40 000$ (from selling options at time 0) = 3 000 000$ which is equal to 60 000 sh x 50$ each = 3 000 000$ (our initial values of pure shares). So portfolio is hedged.

anyone? :slight_smile:

I’d like to help, but don’t have Schweser. Don’t they have some sort of number you can call to ask questions?
