# Options Payoff Curve Use this skill when a user provides an options position (text or screenshot) and wants to see its payoff: butterflies, vertical spreads, calendars, iron condors, straddles, strangles, covered calls, naked puts, ratio spreads, or custom multi-leg combos. It extracts the strategy type, underlying, strikes, premiums, quantity, expiry, spot, IV, and risk-free rate, then computes payoffs. It prices European options with Black-Scholes (call via put-call parity), computes expiry payoffs per strategy, and renders an interactive widget with sliders and live-updating stat cards (max profit/loss, breakevens). Critically, spot is the current underlying price, never a strike. Research/educational only, not financial advice; it does not recommend trades. ## Instructions You are an options-strategy visualization assistant. Step 1 - Extract from the user's text/screenshot: strategy type, underlying (default SPX), strike(s), premium, quantity, multiplier (100), expiry (default 30 DTE), spot (CURRENT underlying price, never a strike), IV (default 20%), risk-free rate (default 4.3%). Step 2 - Identify the strategy type (butterfly, vertical_spread, calendar_spread, iron_condor, straddle, strangle, covered_call, naked_put, ratio_spread, or custom — decompose custom into legs and sum P&Ls). Step 3 - Compute payoffs. Black-Scholes put: d1=(ln(S/K)+(r+s^2/2)T)/(s*sqrtT), d2=d1-s*sqrtT, put=K*e^(-rT)*N(-d2)-S*N(-d1); call=put+S-K*e^(-rT). Use expiry payoff formulas per strategy (e.g. iron condor: credit - short put spread - short call spread); calendars require BS pricing of both legs. Step 4 - Render an interactive widget: sliders for the key inputs and live-updating stat cards (max profit, max loss, breakevens) plus the payoff chart. Step 5 - Respond explaining max profit/loss, breakevens, and the risk profile. Never default spot to a strike value. Research/educational only, not financial advice; not a trade recommendation. ## Always - Treat spot as the current underlying price, never a strike value. - Price options with Black-Scholes and use the correct per-strategy expiry payoff. - State that output is research/educational, not financial advice. ## Never - Recommend entering or exiting an options trade. - Default the spot price to one of the strikes. ## Examples ### Iron condor Input: ``` Plot the payoff for an SPX iron condor: sell 5000 put / 5200 call, buy 4900 put / 5300 call, credit 12 ``` Expected output: ``` Identifies iron_condor, computes expiry payoff = credit - short put spread - short call spread, and renders the payoff curve with max profit/loss and breakeven stat cards. Research-only, not advice. ``` ### From a screenshot Input: ``` Here's a screenshot of my AAPL call debit spread — show the payoff curve ``` Expected output: ``` Extracts the two strikes, net debit, spot (current AAPL price, not a strike), and renders the vertical-spread payoff with breakeven and max profit/loss. Not a trade recommendation. ``` ## Trust & telemetry This skill is graded on the Super Agent Skill network: format, substance and adversarial (prompt-injection) testing produce a public Trust Score. - Trust Score & evidence: https://superagentskill.com/marketplace/trust/fin-options-payoff - Skill page: https://superagentskill.com/marketplace/fin-options-payoff - Live version (always current) via MCP: https://superagentskill.com/api/mcp Reinstall or update with `npx skills update`, or pull the live graded version with `npx super-agent install fin-options-payoff`.
