In many ways, the opposite of the bear spread, a bull spread is profitable when the price of the stock underlying the option rises. It usually involves the sale of a put option with the simultaneous purchase of a put option on the same stock with the same expiration but a lower exercise price. Using call options, a bull spread consists of selling a call option at one exercise price and buying a call on the same stock but at a lower exercise price. 4, record 1, English, - bull%20spread

L'inverse à bien des égards de l'opération mixte baissière, l'opération mixte haussière s’avère fructueuse lorsque le cours de l'action sous option monte. Une telle opération consiste, dans le cas des options de vente, à vendre et à acheter simultanément une option de vente sur un même titre. Toutefois, la transaction d’achat porte sur une option ayant la même date d’échéance que l'option vendue mais comportant un prix de levée plus bas. Dans le cas des options d’achat, l'opération mixte haussière consistera à vendre une option d’achat en achetant simultanément une option d’achat dont le prix de levée est plus bas. 5, record 1, French, - %C3%A9cart%20haussier
