Answer: Implied volatility: limited to 25.00% or the average of last twenty trading days
Implied volatility is **not** a contract specification. It is a market-derived estimate used in option pricing and analysis, not a term written into the option contract. By contrast: - **Strike prices** are contract terms. - **Underlying: 100 shares** is standard for an equity option contract. - **Exercise style: American** is a valid contract feature. Therefore, the incorrect choice is **C**.
