• Python code for a trading strategy based on time value, which is performed in the SSE 50ETF option market of China.

• I apply the time value of options as an indicator, to build a hedging strategy.
• Specifically, I buy option contracts with large time value and sell option contracts with small time value.
• Every month, I construct portfolios on the first trading day, and then I close portfolios on the last trading day.

Fig.1 Cumulative returns of the strategy (compared with SSE 50ETF)

• I divide options into fair value options and imaginary value options, and back-test the strategy on both of them respectively.
• The division is based on S/K - 1 value (i.g. EPS) of each option.

Fig.2 Price status of options in the sample period

• Comparing Fig.3 and Fig.4 below, I find that the return of the strategy mainly comes from virtual options.
