Prediction based on Rule 16 of the current LTC contract

Based on the Rule 16, the options market is currently suggesting that LTC Properties will have an average daily up or down price movement of about 0.0375% per day over the life of the 2026-03-20 option contract. With LTC Properties trading at USD 36.78, that is roughly USD 0.0138 . If you think that the market is fully incorporating LTC Properties' daily price movement you should consider acquiring LTC Properties options at the current volatility level of 0.6%. But if you have an opposite viewpoint you should avoid it and even consider selling them.

Open Interest Against 2026-03-20 LTC Option Contracts

Although open interest is a measure utilized in the options markets, it could be used to forecast LTC Properties' spot prices because the number of available contracts in the market changes daily, and new contracts can be created or liquidated at will. Since open interest in LTC Properties' options reflects these daily shifts, investors could use the patterns of these changes to develop long and short-term trading strategies for LTC Properties stock based on available contracts left at the end of a trading day.
Please note that to derive more accurate forecasting about market movement from the current LTC Properties' open interest, investors have to compare it to LTC Properties' spot prices. As Ford's stock price increases, high open interest indicates that money is entering the market, and the market is strongly bullish. Conversely, if the price of LTC Properties is decreasing and there is high open interest, that is a sign that the bearish trend will continue, and investors may react by taking short positions in LTC. So, decreasing or low open interest during a bull market indicates that investors are becoming uncertain of the depth of the bullish trend, and a reversal in sentiment will likely follow.

Triple exponential smoothing for LTC Properties - also known as the Winters method - is a refinement of the popular double exponential smoothing model with the addition of periodicity (seasonality) component. Simple exponential smoothing technique works best with data where there are no trend or seasonality components to the data. When LTC Properties prices exhibit either an increasing or decreasing trend over time, simple exponential smoothing forecasts tend to lag behind observations. Double exponential smoothing is designed to address this type of data series by taking into account any trend in LTC Properties price movement. However, neither of these exponential smoothing models address any seasonality of LTC Properties.
