Long call butterfly payoff

A long call butterfly combines one lower-strike long call, two short calls at the middle strike, and one upper-strike long call with equal wing widths. Maximum profit occurs when the underlying expires at the middle strike; maximum loss is limited to the net debit paid.

Frequently Asked Questions

What breakevens does a debit butterfly use?

Lower breakeven = lower strike + net debit per share. Upper breakeven = upper strike − net debit per share. Profit is positive only between those prices at expiration.
