Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When options dance with market moves
Three Greeks will guide you through
Vega measures volatility's groove
How price swings affect what's due
When uncertainty starts to climb
Your option's value starts to shine
But when the market settles down
Vega brings that value down

[Chorus]
Vega for the vol, Theta for time
Rho for the rates that climb
Three risk Greeks you need to know
V-T-R, watch them flow
Vega, Theta, Rho today
Managing risk the trading way

[Verse 2]
Theta is the time decay
Every passing day it steals
Like ice cream melting away
Time erosion always feels
The closer to expiration
The faster value fades
For buyers it's frustration
For sellers, profits made

[Chorus]
Vega for the vol, Theta for time
Rho for the rates that climb
Three risk Greeks you need to know
V-T-R, watch them flow
Vega, Theta, Rho today
Managing risk the trading way

[Verse 3]
Rho responds to interest rates
When rates go up or down
Call options celebrate
While puts may lose their crown
Higher rates boost call values
Lower rates help puts
Understanding these cues
Helps avoid trading ruts

[Bridge]
Long options fear the theta burn
But love when vega's high
Short options make their profits turn
As time and calm go by
Interest rates affect them all
Rho tells you by how much
Watch these Greeks both big and small
Keep risk within your touch

[Chorus]
Vega for the vol, Theta for time
Rho for the rates that climb
Three risk Greeks you need to know
V-T-R, watch them flow
Vega, Theta, Rho today
Managing risk the trading way

[Outro]
Volatility, time, and rates
These three Greeks seal option fates
Vega, Theta, Rho in mind
Trading success you'll surely find
