01-10 17:42uSMART

This chart illustrates the profit and loss dynamics of the Buying Call Options strategy. Observations from the chart include:

  • When the stock price is below or equal to $100 (depicted by the blue dashed line), the strategy incurs a fixed loss, limited to the premium paid, i.e., $5 (indicated by the green dashed line).
  • As the stock price rises above $100, the strategy starts gaining, and the profits increase with the upward movement of the stock price. In theory, the maximum gain is unlimited, depending on the extent of the rise in asset prices.
  • The breakeven point is at a stock price of $105 (calculated as the strike price of $100 plus the premium paid of $5).

 

Through this chart, investors can gain a clearer understanding of the profit and loss scenario of the Buying Call Options strategy at different stock price levels, enabling them to make more informed trading decisions. This strategy is suitable for those anticipating that the stock price will experience a significant increase, and the potential loss is limited to the premium paid.

 

 

This chart illustrates the profit and loss dynamics of the Buying Call Options strategy. Observations from the chart include:

  • When the stock price is below $100 (depicted by the blue dashed line), the strategy incurs a fixed loss, limited to the premium paid, i.e., $5.
  • As the stock price moves between $100 and $105, the strategy begins to reduce its losses until it reaches the breakeven point (indicated by the green dashed line at a stock price of $105).
  • When the stock price is above $105, the strategy starts making a profit, and theoretically, there is no upper limit to the potential gains.
