For positive volatility and positive remaining maturity, the call price in an arithmetic stock model with interest has option delta , where is the standardized discounted moneyness. Since a finite argument of the standard normal distribution function gives a value strictly between zero and one,
For a fixed spot , the maturity limit is , the derivative of the call financial payoff away from its kink. The payoff derivative is undefined at . Under the nondegenerate Gaussian terminal law, the event has probability zero; it is this strike event that is exceptional. At zero interest use the same formula with normal scale .
