Understanding Options Profit & Loss

Call Options

A call option gives you the right (but not obligation) to buy stock at the strike price.

  • Long Call: Bullish strategy. Profit when stock rises above strike + premium.
  • Short Call: Bearish/neutral. Profit from premium if stock stays below strike.

Put Options

A put option gives you the right (but not obligation) to sell stock at the strike price.

  • Long Put: Bearish strategy. Profit when stock falls below strike - premium.
  • Short Put: Bullish/neutral. Profit from premium if stock stays above strike.

Key Concepts

  • Strike Price: The price at which you can exercise the option
  • Premium: The cost per share to buy/sell the option
  • Contract Size: Each contract = 100 shares
  • Break-Even: Stock price where P&L = $0

Risk Management

  • Long positions: Risk limited to premium paid
  • Short calls: Unlimited risk if stock rallies
  • Short puts: Risk limited to strike price (if stock goes to $0)
  • Always know your max loss before entering a trade
