How are MMYT strangle max profit and max loss calculated?

Upside max profit is unbounded; downside max profit is bounded at the put strike minus the combined debit (reached at zero). Max loss equals the combined debit times 100 (reached anywhere between the two OTM strikes). Two breakevens at call-strike plus debit and put-strike minus debit. For the MMYT strangle priced from the end-of-day chain at a 30-day expiry (ATM IV 56.90%), the computed maximum profit is unbounded per contract and the computed maximum loss is -$842.50 per contract. Live intraday quotes will differ as the chain moves through the trading session.

What is the breakeven for a MMYT strangle?

What is a strangle on MMYT?

A long strangle buys an OTM call and an OTM put at offset strikes, cheaper than a straddle but requiring a larger underlying move to profit since both wings start out-of-the-money.

Current MMYT snapshot

As of June 30, 2026, spot at $53.97, ATM IV 56.90%, IV rank 15.26%, expected move 16.31%. The strangle on MMYT 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 52-day expiry.

Why this strangle structure on MMYT specifically: MMYT IV at 56.90% is on the cheap side of its 1-year range, which favors premium-buying structures like a MMYT strangle, with a market-implied 1-standard-deviation move of approximately 16.31% (roughly $8.80 on the underlying). The 52-day window matched to the front-month expiry keeps theta exposure bounded while still capturing the post-snapshot move; longer-dated MMYT expiries trade a higher absolute premium for lower per-day decay. Position sizing on MMYT should anchor to the underlying notional of $53.97 per share and to the trader's directional view on MMYT stock.

MMYT strangle setup

The MMYT strangle below is built from the end-of-day chain, with each option leg priced at the bid/ask midpoint of its listed strike. With MMYT near $53.97, the first option leg uses a $55.00 strike; additional legs (when the strategy has them) anchor to spot-relative offsets. Premiums come from the bid/ask midpoint on the listed MMYT chain at a 52-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 MMYT shares for the stock leg in covered calls and collars).

Action	Type	Strike / Basis	Premium (est)
Buy 1	Call	$55.00	$4.90
Buy 1	Put	$50.00	$3.53

When traders use strangle on MMYT

Strangles on MMYT are the cheaper cousin of the straddle - traders use them when they want a large directional move but are willing to give up the inner-strike sensitivity in exchange for a lower up-front debit on the MMYT chain.

MMYT thesis for this strangle

The market-implied 1-standard-deviation range for MMYT extends from approximately $45.17 on the downside to $62.77 on the upside. A MMYT long strangle is the OTM cousin of the straddle: lower up-front cost but the underlying has to travel further past either OTM strike before the position turns profitable at expiration. Current MMYT IV rank near 15.26% sits in the lower third of its 1-year distribution, where IV often re-expands toward the mean; this favors premium-buying structures and disadvantages premium-selling structures on MMYT at 56.90%. As a Consumer Cyclical name, MMYT options can move on sector-level news flow (peer earnings, regulatory updates, industry-specific macro data) in addition to MMYT-specific events.

MMYT strangle positions are structurally neutral / high-volatility (long premium, OTM); 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. MMYT positions also carry Consumer Cyclical sector concentration risk; news flow inside the sector (peer earnings, regulatory shifts, supply-chain headlines) can move MMYT alongside the broader basket even when MMYT-specific fundamentals are unchanged. Always rebuild the position from current MMYT chain quotes before placing a trade.
