Volatility Arbitrage is a trading strategies that attempt to exploit differences between the forecasted future volatility of asset and implied volatility of options determined by that asset. Because options pricing depends upon the volatility of the underlying asset, if forecasted and recommended volatilities differ, there’ll be a discrepancy between the expected price of the option and its selling price. In finance, volatility arbitrage is a type of statistical arbitrage that is implemented by investing a delta neutral portfolio of option and the underlier.
