  3. Trading Strategies Involving Options • Take a position in the option & the underlying • Spread: Position in 2 or more options of the same type • Combination: Position in a mixture of calls & puts

  4. Payoff for Put Option x Cost = p buy ST X sell -X Cost = -p

  5. Payoff for Call Option x Cost = c buy ST X sell Cost = -c

  6. Payoff for Stock buy Cost = S ST sell Cost = -S

  7. Payoff for Investing or Borrowing PV(X) in Risk-Free Bond Cost = Xe-rT X buy ST Cost = -Xe-rT sell -X

  8. Method • Determine cost of portfolio • Draw payoff pattern for each position • Add patterns together to obtain payout pattern • Subtract cost of portfolio to obtain profit pattern

  9. Write a Covered Call buy stock X Cost = S - c ST X sell call

  10. Profit Pattern for Covered Call Cost = S - c X X-S+c ST X -S+c X-S+c

  11. Payoff for Protective Put Cost = S + p x ST X

  12. Profit Pattern Protective Put Cost = S + p x X ST X-S-p S+p

  13. Bull Spread • Buy 1 call and sell 1 call at higher strike X2-X1 buy Cost = c1 - c2 > 0 ST X1 X2 sell

  14. Profit Pattern for Bull Spread X2-X1 -c1+c2 ST -c1+c2

  15. Bear Spread • Sell 1 call and buy 1 call at higher strike buy Cost = c1 - c2 < 0 ST X2 X1 sell X2-X1

  16. Profit Pattern for Bear Spread Cost = c1 - c2 < 0 ST X2 X1

  17. Buy a Straddle • Buy 1 call and 1 put at same strike X Cost = c + p payout profit X -p-c X-p-c X+p+c

  18. Butterfly Spread • Buy 1 call at X1, sell 2 calls at X2, buy 1 call at X3 m = +1 m = -1 m = 0 X2 X1 X3 m = - 2 Cost = c1 - 2c2 + c3

  19. Butterfly Spread • Buy 1 call, sell 2 calls, buy 1 call X2-X1 payoff cost profit Cost = c1 - 2c2 + c3
