At a stock price of $78.12, these ranges are derived from the Yang-Zhang volatility model which accounts for overnight gaps and intraday range — more accurate than simple close-to-close calculations.

Otis Worldwide's volatility is measured using two key metrics. The RV Ratio compares realized volatility (ORATS HV 20d) to implied volatility (IV 30d). When the RV Ratio drops below 0.85, realized movement is well below what options are pricing — the sweet spot for premium sellers. VRP (Volatility Risk Premium) measures the gap between IV and HV in percentage points — positive VRP means options are overpriced relative to actual movement. Current RV Ratio: 0.74.

Why two RV values? Yang-Zhang RV (27.2%, OHLC-based) captures intraday volatility, while ORATS RV (23.9%, close-to-close) uses only closing prices. For OTIS, YZ is higher — suggesting significant intraday movement not captured in closing prices. VRP is computed using ORATS RV to match the IV source. Gap: 3.3pp. Full IV Analysis →
Earnings impact: Raw VRP (+8.6pp) includes an IV premium from upcoming earnings (25d). Excluding this premium, VRP is +0.1pp. The 9pp gap is earnings-driven — not a structural edge.

For Otis Worldwide, current conditions require careful selection — check the signal strength before entering positions — always size positions so no single trade risks more than 1-3% of your account. Use the Strategy Builder to model worst-case scenarios before entering.
Otis Worldwide's Volatility Risk Premium (VRP) is +8.6pp, meaning implied volatility exceeds realized volatility by that amount. A positive VRP indicates options are overpriced relative to actual stock movement — this is the statistical edge premium sellers seek.
Based on Yang-Zhang realized volatility, Otis Worldwide has a 1-day expected move of ±$1.34 (±1.7%) and a 5-day expected move of ±$2.99 (±3.8%). This means the stock is expected to trade between $75 and $81 over the next week with approximately 68% probability.
Higher RV Ratio (closer to 1.0) means IV barely exceeds RV, resulting in slimmer VRP edge. Lower RV Ratio = wider gap between IV and actual movement = stronger seller edge.
