A type of option that derives its value from the difference between the prices of two or more assets. Spad options can be written on all types of financial products including equities, bonds and currencies. This type of position can be purchased on large exchanges, but is primarily traded in the over-the-counter market.

Some types of commodity spads enable the trader to gain exposure to the commodity's production process. This is created by purchasing a spad option based on the difference between the inputs and outputs of the process. Common examples of this type of spad are the crack, crush and spark spads.
