Construct the payoff piecewise function from a bull spread when puts with strike prices K1 and K2, with K2 > K1, are used.
Using S= $25, Put Option with Strike Price = $27, and put price = $4, draw a covered put profit diagram. Draw profit diagrams for each individual component of the covered put marking, maximum gain/loss, and breakeven points. When would use this strategy?
