Open in appCalendar Spread Strategy and Its Counter Explained
A long call calendar spread is created by buying a longer-term call and selling a shorter-term call at the same strike price. It is set up for a net debit, and both its potential and its risk are limited.
This video explains how the spread behaves for weekly options traders: it does best when the underlying is near the strike at the short call's expiry, and the risk grows when price moves sharply away from the strike. It also covers the counter, or reverse, version of the strategy.
