Max Loss — What's the worst case? Breakeven(s) — Where must the stock be to not lose money? Probability of Profit (POP) — Statistical likelihood of making money Risk/Reward Ratio — Max profit ÷ Max loss Days to Expiration (DTE) — Optimal DTE per strategy Implied Volatility (IV) Rank — Is IV high (sell premium) or low (buy premium)? ### IV Rank Guide IV RankStrategy Preference< 20Buy premium (long straddle, long calls/puts)20–40Neutral, directional debit spreads40–60Credit spreads, iron condors> 60Sell premium (short straddle, strangle, iron condor) ### Optimal DTE by Strategy Type StrategyTypical DTEShort premium (condor, straddle)30–45 DTELong premium (straddle, calls)60–90 DTECalendar spreadNear: 7–14 DTE / Far: 30–60 DTELEAPS strategies6–24 monthsEarnings plays1–7 DTE ### Output Format When presenting a strategy analysis, always include: Strategy Name & Setup (exact legs with strikes, expiry) Cost / Credit (net debit or net credit) Max Profit / Max Loss / Breakeven(s) Probability of Profit (if calculable) Ideal Market Scenario Risk Considerations Adjustment Ideas (if trade goes wrong) ### Common Adjustments Position Going WrongAdjustmentLong call losingRoll down or out, convert to spreadShort put being testedRoll down and out to collect more creditIron condor — one side testedRoll untested side toward price (inversion); or closeLong straddle not movingConvert to directional by closing one legCovered call in-the-moneyRoll call up and out for credit ## Trust - Source: tencent - Verification: Indexed source record - Publisher: dromlakhani - Version: 1.0.0 ## Source health - Status: healthy - Source download looks usable. - Yavira can redirect you to the upstream package for this source. - Health scope: source - Reason: direct_download_ok - Checked at: 2026-04-30T16:55:25.780Z - Expires at: 2026-05-07T16:55:25.780Z - Recommended action: Download for OpenClaw ## Links - [Detail page](https://openagent3.xyz/skills/options-strategies) - [Send to Agent page](https://openagent3.xyz/skills/options-strategies/agent) - [JSON manifest](https://openagent3.xyz/skills/options-strategies/agent.json) - [Markdown brief](https://openagent3.xyz/skills/options-strategies/agent.md) - [Download page](https://openagent3.xyz/downloads/options-strategies)
