|
||||
The right-hand term of this last equation is, in fact, the definition of a short straddle. In similar
|
||||
fashion, it can be demonstrated that a short put write (short futures + short 2 puts) would also yield
|
||||
a profit/loss profile nearly identical to the short straddle position.
|
||||
Strategy 18: bull Call Money Spread (Long Call with Lower Strike
|
||||
price/Short Call with higher Strike price)
|
||||
example. Buy an August $1,250 gold futures call at a premium of $19.20/oz ($1,920) and
|
||||
simultaneously sell an August $1,300 call at a premium of $9.10 ($910). (See Table 35.18 and
|
||||
Figure 35.18.)
|
||||
Comment. This type of spread position is also called a debit spread because the amount of premium
|
||||
paid for the long call is greater than the amount of the premium received for the short call. The maxi-
|
||||
mum risk in this type of trade is equal to the difference between these two premiums. The maximum
|
||||
possible gain in this spread will be equal to the difference between the two strike prices minus the
|
||||
net difference between the two premiums. The maximum loss will occur if prices fail to rise at least
|
||||
beyond the lowest strike price. The maximum gain will be realized if prices rise above the higher
|
||||
strike price. Note that although the maximum profit exceeds the maximum risk by a factor of nearly
|
||||
4 to 1, the probability of a loss is significantly greater than the probability of a gain. This condition is
|
||||
true since prices must rise $60.10/oz before the strategy proves profitable.
