GREEKS GLOSSARY
Rate of change of option price per $1 move in the underlying asset. A call with delta of 0.50 gains approximately $0.50 in value for each $1 rise in the underlying. Delta ranges from 0 to 1 for calls, and −1 to 0 for puts. At-the-money options have delta near ±0.50.
Rate of change of delta per $1 move in the underlying. High gamma means delta shifts rapidly as price moves — at-the-money options near expiration exhibit the highest gamma. Gamma is always positive for long options.
Rate of time decay — the amount of value an option loses per calendar day, all else equal. Theta is negative for long options and accelerates as expiration approaches. Options lose roughly 1/√T of their remaining value per day.
Sensitivity to implied volatility — the change in option value per 1% move in implied volatility. Longer-dated options have higher vega. A vega of 0.20 means the option gains $0.20 if IV rises 1%. Always positive for long options.
Sensitivity to interest rate changes — the change in option value per 1% move in the risk-free rate. Call options benefit from higher rates (positive rho); puts lose value (negative rho). Rho is most significant for longer-dated options.

DCF outputs are mathematical models based on user-provided assumptions. They are not investment advice or recommendations, and should not be relied upon for any trading or investment decision. Small changes in assumptions produce large changes in outputs. The terminal value is especially sensitive to growth rate and discount rate inputs.
