Calculator Features:

1. Comprehensive Large Charts for Real-Time Decision-Making:

The spreadsheet displays Options Prices at the current moment and at expiry, along with Profit and Loss calculations at the current moment and at expiry, against asset prices. This data is presented in four separate charts, covering:

• Long Call: Options Price and P/L (all incl. @Now and @Expiry)
• Short Call: Options Price and P/L
• Long Put: Options Price and P/L
• Short Put: Options Price and P/L

My calculator features eight individual large charts plotting Long Call, Short Call, Long Put, and Short Put Prices against a wide range of Underling Asset Prices and Strike Prices. Additionally, you’ll find related Greek Derivative Charts for each of these option types, comprising Delta, Gamma, Theta, Vega, and Rho again for both Asset Prices and Strike Prices. In total, you’ll have access to 8 large charts and 72 smaller Greek charts to refine your strategy. 

2. Versatility in Option Pricing:

My calculator provides precise option pricing to two decimal places. This accuracy helps you identify any discrepancies in your broker’s pricing, ensuring you get the best deal.

3. Implied Volatility Projections:

Gain insights into market moves with implied volatility projections for hourly, daily, weekly, and monthly timeframes.

4. Expected Market Moves:

Determine the expected market move in points for your chosen time frame, down to the minute. Plan with confidence.

5. Probability of Profit (POP):

Know your odds of success with individual Short Call and Short Put probability calculations for your selected time frame, even down to the last minutes before expiry.

6. Delta Warning:

Stay ahead with a red text Delta warning, especially designed for Short Sellers. This alert triggers when the OTM (Out of The Money) Delta falls below 60%, (change to suite your risk tolerance).

7. Greek Targeting: 

Select Strike prices according to the likelihood of success based on Delta probabilities. 

8. Real-Time Updates:

Set option start dates to @Now” to enable real-time monitoring of Call and Put Option Price changes in real time via a toggle button. Modify implied volatility (I.V.) and other variables, and witness the tables and charts adapt seamlessly.

9. 0DTE Calculations:

My calculator is capable of calculating option premiums for “0 days to expiry” (ODTE) right down to the last minutes before they expire.

10. Wide Asset Price Range:

My calculator accommodates a wide range of asset prices. For example, setting Cable (£/$) with a 25-tick (adjustable) increment allows the calculator to work out option prices from just above the 1.3700 Strike down to the 1.1400 Strike, ensuring you’re prepared for various market scenarios. Set the S&P 500 with a 25-tick (adjustable) increment and a strike price (K) of 4300. This configuration allows the calculator to calculate option prices for strikes ranging from just below 3200 to just below 5575, effectively covering a potential 25% market decline. By adjusting the asset width to 50-point increments, the calculator can accommodate asset prices from 2100 to 6800, ensuring comprehensive coverage in option pricing even for a 50% market downturn.

Embrace Precision, Control Risk:

As markets become increasingly volatile, our calculator is designed to help you navigate and anticipate Black Swan events, especially as a Short Seller. For instance, in the wake of unforeseen market shocks, like the 6-cent drop in Cable (£/$) following a political announcement, my calculator provides essential insights equivalent to a 500-point move. Take control of your market risk.
