Frequently Asked Questions
How do I calculate options profit?
Options profit depends on whether you're long or short, and whether it's a call or put. For a long call: Profit = (Stock Price - Strike - Premium) × 100. Use our calculator to handle all scenarios automatically.
What is implied volatility (IV)?
Implied volatility is the market's expectation of how much a stock will move. Higher IV means options are more expensive because larger moves are expected. IV is used to calculate the expected move.
What is the expected move?
The expected move is the price range the market expects a stock to stay within, based on implied volatility. A 1 standard deviation move has about 68% probability, while 2 standard deviations covers 95%.
What is max pain in options?
Max pain is the strike price where option buyers (both calls and puts) would lose the most money at expiration. The theory suggests stocks tend to gravitate toward this price as expiration approaches.
How do I find my breakeven price?
For a long call, breakeven = Strike + Premium paid. For a long put, breakeven = Strike - Premium paid. For short positions, it's reversed. Our calculator handles all four basic positions.
