Why breakeven belongs next to the estimate
A contract can show an attractive estimated option price and still be a poor trade if the premium, position size, and breakeven do not fit your risk plan.
The Profit / Breakeven view helps connect the estimate to a simpler question: if the stock reaches this target, what would the position be worth under a simplified payoff view?
What OptionsPeek calculates
OptionsPeek uses the entry option price, contract count, strike, side, and target stock price to estimate premium paid, breakeven stock price, position value at target, and profit or loss.
For calls, breakeven is strike plus entry option price. For puts, breakeven is strike minus entry option price. The view assumes standard listed option contract sizing, where one contract usually controls 100 shares.
Where it is intentionally simple
This is not a full live pricing model. Before expiration, actual option prices can differ because implied volatility, time decay, bid/ask spread, liquidity, and market conditions still matter.
That is why the Profit / Breakeven view works best alongside the Estimate Summary, Greeks Breakdown, and stock price chart.
