AA,

The site posted by TWNN is a good resource for volatility, but you can also get the current implied volatility from the Hoadley program itself. I never use the Implied Volatility Calculator page of the workbook, but I use the calculator on the main page constantly. You can start with an estimate for any stock you are looking at, and then put in actual prices for options of interest in the Option Trades section. Then click on the Calc Implied Volatility boxes at the far right to fill in the fields in the Trades section. Unless you have good reason to believe the volatility is going to change during your trade period, those are the best values to use to project the evolution of your position. You can use these calculated values to refine your estimate of the overall volatility number on the Underlying Assets, Settings page.
