Bull Calendar Spread Option Strategy

When a trader is bullish on the underlying stock/index in the near run, say 2-3 months, this strategy is used. A trader will write one Near Month out-of-the-money (OTM) Call Option and buy one Next Month out-of-the-money (OTM) Call Option, lowering the cost of going long pn the same underlying asset with the different call strike.

The investor/trader employing this strategy is long-term optimistic and is selling near-month calls in order to trade the next / far month call option for free.

When a trader wishes to benefit from a steady rise in the stock price over a short period of time, this strategy is used.
