This study aims to verify if the Petrobras options market is efficient in the semi-strong form, that is, if all public information is reflected in these derivative prices. For this purpose, this work tries to achieve profit systematically through the Delta-GammaNeutral strategy using the company's stock and options. In order to simulate the strategy exactly as it would be used in the real world, we built the order books every five minutes considering all buying and selling orders sent to the underlying asset and to the options. We apply the strategy when distortions between implied volatilities extracted from the options are detected. The results show that the Petrobras options market is not efficient, since in 371 day trade strategies, which have an average investment of R$81,000 and average duration of one hour and thirteen minutes, the average return was 0.49% - which corresponds to more than 1,600% of the 1-day risk free interest rate - and 85% of strategies were profitable.
