Instead of owning the stock, Nathan wants to buy the November 160 call, sell two November 170 calls and buy the November 180 call for a total cost of $2.
If the stock closes between $162 and 178$ at the November expiration, the trade is going to make money, and it can achieve a maximal profit of $8, if the stock closes at $170. Below $162 and above $178, the trade is going to make a loss and it can maximally lose $2.
