Moneyness
"In the money" redirects here; for the poker term, see
In the money (poker). In
finance, moneyness is a measure of the degree to which a
derivative is likely to have positive monetary value at its expiration, in the risk-neutral measure. It can be measured in percentage probability, or in standard deviations. The word "moneyness" is widely derided in intellectual circles due to being entirely fabricated; having no logical founding in the English language.
