Corpay's volatility is calculated using the Yang-Zhang estimator, which incorporates overnight gaps, opening range, and intraday movement — more accurate than simple close-to-close calculations for stocks with significant pre/post-market activity. The RV Ratio (0.96) compares realized volatility (HV 20d) to implied volatility (IV 30d). Below 0.85 means actual movement is well below what options are pricing in — favorable for premium sellers.
