Verdict
Depends on how you tradeOptions Profit Calculator is a capable, long-running calculator: free with ads, 22 named strategies, custom builds up to eight legs, and an app (OpCalc+) with an Option Finder, a rolling calculator and a backtester. OMP fits when you want watchlists, Matrix, AI review and campaign records on live data in one place; the calculator’s official pages do not describe those.
Choose Options Profit Calculator when a free, ad-supported calculator is enough, or when you want its backtester on 20+ years of historical data. Choose OMP when you want one product to find candidates, compare contracts and keep a campaign record on live data.

The OpCalc+ app’s own home page says its calculations incorporate real-time market data, which conflicts with those two pages.

Important differences to know
- OMP has no free analysis tier (the free plan only opens shared trades) and no backtester. Its paid plans start at $10/month for live data and the Visualizer, while the calculator website is free with ads.
- Options Profit Calculator states that slippage and brokerage fees are not included and that its estimates assume implied volatility stays constant. Any model estimate needs the same caution.
- The calculator derives probability of profit from 30-day implied volatility with a normal distribution. Other platforms, including OMP, may define it differently.
- The free website and the OpCalc+ app are separate sites with separate feature lists, and the backtester sits on the Growth plan.
Frequently asked questions
Is Options Profit Calculator free?
The website is free and ad-supported. An ad-free membership is $9.95/month, and the OpCalc+ app lists Starter at $9.95/month, Pro at $14.95/month and Growth at $49.95/month on monthly billing, checked on 28 October 2026.
Does OMP replace a profit calculator?
For modelling, yes. The OMP Visualizer shows a live P/L graph and table, Greeks, expected move, probability context and price, date and IV scenarios from $10/month. Matrix, AI Analyst and saved campaigns come with Pro ($30/month) and the scanners with All Access ($50/month). OMP does not offer a rule-based backtester.
How reliable are calculator estimates?
Any pricing-model estimate depends on implied volatility staying where it is. Options Profit Calculator’s FAQ says its Black-Scholes estimates exclude slippage and brokerage fees and cannot predict later changes in implied volatility. Confirm fills and fees with your broker.
