The Greeks

Definition

In finance, the Greeks are measures of the sensitivity of an option’s price to changes in various factors, such as the price of the underlying asset, the volatility, or the time to expiration. The Greeks are named after Greek letters that are used to represent them, e.g.: delta, gamma, theta, and vega.
