What are the profit profiles of basic option strategies? This visual displays profit and loss at expiration for four fundamental option positions. A call option gives the right to buy an asset at a fixed strike price; a put option gives the right to sell. The long call (coral) profits when prices rise above the strike plus the premium paid, offering unlimited upside. The short call (dark blue) collects the premium but faces unlimited losses if prices surge. The long put (teal) profits when prices fall below the strike minus the premium, providing downside protection. The short put (yellow) collects premium but incurs losses if prices collapse. The vertical dashed line marks the strike price; the horizontal line indicates breakeven. Data & MethodTheoretical option payoffs at expiration. Strike price K = 100. Call premium = 10.
