As shown in the diagram for pay-off function of a debit put spread of EURJPY, below factors are indicative as to how it works at expiry, one of the following scenarios may occur:
1) Underlying trades below the lower strike then you sell the notional amount at the lower strike.
2) Underlying trades at or above the lower strike and below the higher strike, no transaction takes place on the settlement date. You could sell the notional amount at the prevailing spot rate (outside this structure).
3) Underlying trades at or above the higher strike, then you are obliged to sell the notional amount (multiplied by the leverage factor, if any) at the higher strike. Your profit potential is limited at the higher strike.
