Options Profit Calculator — P&L and Payoff Chart
This is an options profit calculator (P&L / payoff chart) for named books — not a single-contract pricer. Open Strategies to seed a named book from the catalog (covered call, iron condor, calendar, jade lizard, synthetics, and the rest), pick an expiration from a month-grouped date bar, and reshape the book on a strike ruler. Share quantity lives in its own control so a covered call includes stock in P&L without a strike flag. The payoff chart values the whole book at the nearest expiration, so a long call is a straight expiry line and a calendar is a tent while the back month still has time value.

- Family-preserving drag, 20Δ and Smart Range strike seeds
- Payoff chart at the nearest expiration with live mids
Credit structures land shorts on the expected-move band (or about 20 delta). Debit and ATM structures stay tight to spot. Drag a flag to reshape a named book — condor shorts move in or out together; strangles and combos keep each strike independent; shift-drag slides the whole structure. Legs you add yourself never bind. Live mid quotes drive debit, credit, max profit, max loss, chance of profit, and breakevens as you edit.
Frequently asked questions
What is an options profit calculator?
It charts P&L and payoff for a named book of listed contracts — covered calls, cash-secured puts, condors, calendars, and the rest of the Strategies catalog. It is not a single-contract pricer: share quantity, every flag, and every expiration in the book go into one curve.
How is options P&L calculated on the chart?
The payoff chart values the whole book at the nearest expiration still in the strategy, using live mid quotes. At that date, front-month legs go to intrinsic; remaining legs keep Black-Scholes time value from each contract’s live implied volatility. Net debit or credit is option premium; share P&L uses the equity fill.
Can I model a covered call or cash-secured put?
Yes. Open Strategies and pick either structure. A covered call includes 100 shares via the share-quantity control (not a strike flag) plus a short call. A cash-secured put is a short put with cash set aside at strike × 100. Both land the short on the expected-move IV band, or about 20 delta if IV is missing, and the chart shows the payoff at the nearest expiration.
Does it handle multi-leg / multi-expiration books?
Yes. Iron condors, calendars, diagonals, jade lizards, and the rest of the catalog are multi-leg books. Calendars and diagonals keep a listed-expiration gap when you walk the date bar. Single-date books re-seed strikes for the new DTE until you place them yourself, then the date bar only moves dates.
How is P&L calculated for a calendar spread?
The chart values every leg at the nearest expiration in the strategy. The front-month option is marked to intrinsic; remaining legs keep Black-Scholes time value using each contract’s live implied volatility.
How do Strategies, 20Δ, and Smart Range place strikes?
Open Strategies to load a named book from listed contracts. Credit structures (iron condor, covered call, cash-secured put, credit verticals) park shorts on the expected-move IV band, or about 20 delta if IV is missing. Debit verticals, calendars, and butterflies stay ATM plus listed steps. 20Δ and Smart Range (IV expected move, 1σ, gamma walls, confluence) re-seed the live named book without changing its geometry.
