Ken Trester's Best Option Play

Debit Spread Debit spread

Applies to derivative products. Difference in the value of two options, when the value of the option bought exceeds the value of the one sold. One buys a "debit spread." Antithesis of a credit spread.
 to Buy -- Buy Emmis Communications (Nasdaq: EMMS) Jun 12.5 Call and sell EMMS Jun 15 Call. The spread price at Friday (10/27) close was $1.10.

A debit spread is similar to buying an option, except you are using the simultaneous sale of another option to offset some of the cost. This debit spread reduces the cost of buying the EMMS Jun 12.5 Call, which otherwise would cost $1.40. To enter this position, use a spread order to Buy to Open EMMS Jun 12.5 Call, and Sell to Open EMMS Jun 15 Call.

The maximum profit potential with this position is 90%. Maximum profits will be realized if the stock is above $15.00 during the week prior to June 2007 options expiration EXPIRATION. Cessation; end. As, the expiration of, a lease, of a contract, or statute.
     2. In general, the expiration of a contract puts an end to all the engagements of the parties, except to those which arise from the non- fulfillment of obligations created
. The stock would have to rise to over $23.00 to obtain a similar profit from buying the stock itself.
