Webinar: Trading Time: Calendar and Diagonal Spreads

Not every spread trades on direction — calendar and diagonal spreads use time itself as part of the trade.

Calendar and diagonal spreads use options with different expiration dates to express a view on time decay and volatility rather than direction alone. This webinar explains how the two spreads are built, what separates them and what to consider when managing these positions as expiration approaches. Here's what OIC instructor Ken Keating will cover in this session:

• How calendar and diagonal spreads are built, and the key difference between them
• How Greek exposure and implied volatility shape each position
• How a position is managed by rolling the short leg
• Assignment risk associated with the short option
