I just came up with this formula (not much tested yet):
MaxProfit = max(K_center - K_lower - NetPremium, K_upper - K_center - NetPremium)
Works also for different upper and lower strike distances from the center strike.
You have no clue, either bring verifyable facts, or otherwise better keep out.Top of my head, max profit = difference between strikes plus credit or minus debit
You have no clue, either bring verifyable facts, or otherwise better keep out.
Bye, bye you POS!STFU you idiot..
If you need a computer program to figure out the max profit on a fly,you need to find a new hobby
Its options 101
