I see your profit potential, what's your risk with in the 3D options trade?

Sort:  

Net premium of the spread of $0.76 minus the premium received for the sold put of $0.18 = so $0.58 per contract (6.4% of strike).

First risk in the trade is price drops below $7.82 before January expiry and I am forced to buy the stock at $8. After that risk in the trade is if price does not stay above $9 on May expiry. Breakeven will be $9.58. Price closed above $9 at $9.12 on December 19.
