Credit Spread in Bonds vs Options

Send us Fan MailThis episode offers a detailed comparison of the term "credit spread" as it is used in two different financial markets: bonds and options trading.

Conversely, in options trading, a credit spread is a defined-risk strategy involving selling and buying options to collect premium, which defines a trader's profit and loss range and focuses on managing probability rather than predicting price.
