Re: [RT] Is this divergence for real?

Premium is highest at the money. I like the behavior of DIM delta which is
high and increases as price declines and high and decreases as price rises.
Also, one is paying for very little premium and they often have the lowest
implied volatilities. It does not bother me to pay $13K for a put which is
mostly equity vs a few hundred dollars for something which out of the money
and all premium.
