advanced-options-volatility

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps you design and evaluate advanced options strategies focused on the volatility surface rather than just simple Delta-based trades.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Volatility surface modeling (SABR / Local Vol) to interpret strike/expiry implied-volatility structure and dynamics.
• Dynamic Greeks rebalancing guidance for managing Gamma, Vega, and vanna-related exposure instead of relying on static hedging.
• Strategy selection & risk control for calendar spreads, volatility arbitrage (long/short gamma), skew/risk reversals, butterfly skew trades, and option market-making basics for quoting and inventory control.
• Use Case: If the skew is unusually steep and near-term IV is depressed relative to longer maturities, you can combine a risk reversal with a calendar spread and monitor Delta/Gamma/Vega constraints.

Quick Start

Use the skill to generate a volatility-surface report and a strategy recommendation for your current underlying and IV/Skew/Term Structure inputs, including the key Greeks monitoring targets.
