How are MBLY butterfly max profit and max loss calculated?

Max profit equals the wing width minus net debit times 100 (reached when the underlying pins the middle strike); max loss equals the net debit times 100. Two breakevens at lower-wing plus debit and upper-wing minus debit. For the MBLY butterfly priced from the end-of-day chain at a 30-day expiry (ATM IV 71.13%), the computed maximum profit is $48.10 per contract and the computed maximum loss is -$1.00 per contract. Live intraday quotes will differ as the chain moves through the trading session.

What is the breakeven for a MBLY butterfly?

The breakeven for the MBLY butterfly priced on this page is roughly $8.00 at expiration, derived from end-of-day chain premiums. Breakeven is the underlying price at which the strategy's P&L crosses zero ignoring transaction costs and assignment risk. The current MBLY market-implied 1-standard-deviation expected move is approximately 20.39%; if the move sits well outside the breakeven distance, the structure's risk-reward becomes correspondingly tighter.

Current MBLY snapshot

As of June 29, 2026, spot at $8.36, ATM IV 71.13%, IV rank 54.82%, expected move 20.39%. The butterfly on MBLY below is built from the same end-of-day chain, with strikes snapped to listed contracts and premiums pulled from the bid/ask midpoint at a 32-day expiry.

Why this butterfly structure on MBLY specifically: MBLY IV at 71.13% is mid-range versus its 1-year history, so strategy selection should anchor more to the directional thesis than to the IV regime, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 20.39% (roughly $1.70 on the underlying). The 32-day window matched to the front-month expiry keeps theta exposure bounded while still capturing the post-snapshot move; longer-dated MBLY expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on MBLY should anchor to the underlying notional of $8.36 per share and to the trader's directional view on MBLY stock.

MBLY butterfly setup

The MBLY butterfly below is built from the end-of-day chain, with each option leg priced at the bid/ask midpoint of its listed strike. With MBLY near $8.36, the first option leg uses a $8.00 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed MBLY chain at a 32-day expiry; the cross-strike IV skew is reflected directly in the per-leg values rather than approximated. Quantity sizing assumes one contract per option leg (or 100 MBLY shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

Action	Type	Strike / Basis	Premium (est)
Buy 1	Call	$8.00	$0.75
Sell 2	Call	$8.50	$0.56
Buy 1	Call	$9.00	$0.38

When traders use butterfly on MBLY

Butterflies on MBLY are pinning bets - traders use them when they expect MBLY to settle near a specific level at expiration (often the prior close, a round number, or the max-pain strike) and want defined-risk exposure to that outcome.

MBLY thesis for this butterfly

The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for MBLY extends from approximately $6.66 on the downside to $10.06 on the upside. A MBLY long call butterfly is a pinning play: it pays maximum at the middle strike if MBLY settles there at expiration, with the wing legs capping both the cost and the maximum loss to the net debit. Current MBLY IV rank near 54.82% is mid-range against its 1-year distribution, so the IV signal is neutral; the butterfly thesis on MBLY should anchor more to the directional view and the expected-move geometry. As a Consumer Cyclical name, MBLY options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to MBLY-specific events.

MBLY butterfly positions are structurally neutral / pin (limited-risk, limited-reward); the modeled P&L assumes European-style exercise at expiration and ignores early assignment, transaction costs, dividends paid before expiry on the stock leg (when present), and the bid-ask spread on the listed chain. MBLY positions also carry Consumer Cyclical sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move MBLY alongside the broader basket even when MBLY-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Always rebuild the position from current MBLY chain quotes before placing a trade.
