+114 Part II: Call Option Strategies 
+spread strategy, however, would result in a total loss of $300 only if XYZ were below 
+30 at October expiration. With XYZ above 30 in October, the long side of the spread 
+could be liquidated for some value, thereby avoiding a total loss. The investor has 
+reduced the chance of realizing the maximum loss, since the stock price at which that 
+loss would occur has been lowered by 5 points. 
+As with most investments, the improvement of risk exposure - lowering the 
+break-even point and lowering the maximum loss price - necessitates that some 
+potential reward be sacrificed. In the original long call position (the October 35), the 
+maximum profit potential was unlimited. In the new position, the potential profit is 
+limited to 2 points if XYZ should rally back to, or anywhere above, 35 by October 
+expiration. To see this, assume XYZ is 35 at expiration. Then the long October 30 call 
+would be worth 5 points, while the October 35 would expire worthless. Thus, the 
+spread could be liquidated for 5 points, a 2-point profit over the 3 points paid for the 
+spread. This is the limit of profit for the spread, however, since if XYZ is above 35 at 
+expiration, any further profits in the long October 30 call would be offset by a corre­
+sponding loss on the short October 35 call. Thus, if XYZ were to rally heavily by expi­
+ration, the "rolled down" position would not realize as large a profit as the original 
+long call position would have realized. 
+Table 3-5 and Figure 3-2 summarize the original and new positions. Note that 
+the new position is better for stock prices between 30 and 40. Below 30, the two posi­
+tions are equal, except for the additional commissions spent. If the stock should rally 
+back above 40, the original position would have worked out better. The new position 
+is an improvement, provided that XYZ does not rally back above 40 by expiration. 
+The chances that XYZ could rally 8 points, or 25%, from 32 to 40 would have to be 
+considered relatively remote. Rolling the long call down into the spread would thus 
+appear to be the correct thing to do in this case. 
+This example is particularly attractive, because no additional money was 
+required to establish the spread. In many cases, however, one may find that the long 
+call cannot be rolled into the spread at even money. Some debit may be required. 
+This fact should not necessarily preclude making the change, since a small addition­
+al investment may still significantly increase the chance of breaking even or making 
+a profit on a rebound. 
+Example: The following prices now exist, rather than the ones used earlier. Only the 
+October 30 call price has been altered: 
+XYZ, 32; 
+XYZ October 35 call, 1 ½; and 
+XYZ October 30 call, 4.
