Hello Friend,
ReplyDeleteThis site is very nice ! Thanks to share with us. As the spread approaches expiration it will start to trade at parity. If you bought a spread that is now way out of the money, you’ll be able to figure out the prices. The profit comes from the difference in the premiums of the two calls. If the price moves up, the calls will both go into profit, and if the price moves down, both calls will expire worthless.
