Long Call Calendar Spread for Beginners: Options Learning Center
Description
The long call calendar is a long call option spread strategy where you expect the underlying security to trade within a specific price range. The long call calendar option strategy involves selling a nearer-term expiration call and buying a longer-term expiration call at the same strike price.
The maximum loss is the difference between the premium paid for the long call and the premium received for the short call (Net Debit).
The long call calendar strategy achieves maximum profit if the security price is equal to the strike price at the expiration of the nearer-term short call, at which point profit will be equal to the value of the long call.
