Long Call

Analyzing the risk profile of a long call strategy

Variation In Strike Price

Let's take a look at how
selection affects this strategy. Pay close attention to the delta of each strike. Notice how the farther
the strike is, the lower the total risk, but the worse the break even. Long options allow you to risk a small amount to make a potentially large amount, but with very unfavorable odds of success.
