What is calendar call spread?
Call calendar spread trading is an options trading strategy that seeks to lock in gains from the changing prices over time of two options contracts with different expiry dates. Call calendar spreads are formed when a trader buys or sells a longer-dated call contract and takes the opposite position in a shorter-dated contract with the same strike price at the same time. Call calendar spreads are sometimes known as time-spreads or horizontal spreads. They become more lucrative as expiration approaches because of the time decay from both option contracts.
