What Is the Maximum Profit Potential for the Buyer of an OTM Call Option?

The maximum profit potential for the buyer of an OTM Call option is theoretically unlimited. If the underlying asset's price rises indefinitely, the Call option's intrinsic value will also increase indefinitely.

The profit is the final intrinsic value minus the initial premium paid. This unlimited upside is a key feature of long Call options.
