Additionally, it can lead to an arbitrage position as an investor attempts to lock in a small return at expiry. Notes: A box spread is a complicated strategy for the more advanced options trader. The purpose of this investment is to locate and exploit the discrepancies within the market prices of option contracts.Box spread This strategy refers to a type of option arbitrage in which both a bull spread and a bear spread are implemented for an almost-riskless position.
