Debit Spreads

A Debit Spread is an options strategy that requires simultaneously buying and selling OTM options contracts on the same underlying security, same expiration date but different strike prices, resulting in a net debit. These strategies are considered Delta strategies as they benefit from the directional movements of the underlying security.

In terms of directional bias, a Debit Spread can be bullish (Bull Call Spread), bearish (Bear Put Spread) or neutral (Debit Condor).
