How it works

Short put pays for the long call: cheap or free bullish convexity, with long-like risk below the put.

When to use it

Bullish with tolerance for assignment at the put strike — a favorite for expressing skew views.

Risks & management

Looks free until the downside: below the put strike it is a full long position from that level.
