Behaviour of OPTION GREEKS in relation to TIME REMAINING TO EXPIRATION and IMPLIED VOLATILITY (IV) – With Past DATA and CHARTS

The past articles in this blog have discussed many times about the effect of time remaining to expiration and IV on Options Greeks.
In fact, not only this blog, many other websites have done the same too.
Nevertheless, generally these topics are only discussed qualitatively, as it is quite tedious and time consuming to show these using real data.

While there is an adage “A picture speaks a thousand words”, I am trying to show how Options Greeks behave in relation to the changes in time remaining to expiration or Implied Volatility (IV) by using the past real data and showing the relevant charts.
