Spreading

In finance, there is a technique called "arbitrage" that involves buying and selling two related markets at the same time in hopes of making a profit. This can be done in various ways, such as buying one futures contract and selling another of the same commodity but with a different delivery month. Alternatively, one could buy and sell the same delivery month on different futures exchanges, or even buy a certain delivery month on one market and sell the same on a related market.
