🚨 OTM Option Chain Risk Indicator (ⓘ)

“Cheap ≠ Safe” — but most new traders don’t know that yet.

📱 Product: Retail Options Trading App (Share.Market / Zerodha)

🧩 Feature: UX Micro-Intervention · Risk Education

🎯 Goal: Reduce dumb losses without blocking trades

😬 The Problem

Retail traders often see ₹1–₹5 OTM options and think:

“Low price = low risk = why not?”

Reality check 👇

Far Out-of-The-Money (OTM) options — especially near expiry — have a very high chance of expiring at ₹0.

This leads to:

• ❌ Impulse trades
• ❌ Fast losses for beginners
• ❌ “Why did my option go to zero?” support tickets

Root issue:

👉 No contextual risk info at the exact moment users see OTM prices.
