The Low Cost Bullish (Long Stock) Put Hedge Strategy For The Week Of – 10-14-19

Quick Take: Low Cost Bullish Put Hedge Strategy

Time Frame: One to Twelve Weeks.

Stock: Bullish Market Edge Opinion – Long Stock Position.

Desired Stock Price Direction: Sideways to Up.

Option Position: Short ATM Put – Long ATM -1 Put (Bullish Put Credit Spread) and Long ATM Deferred Put.

Desired Result: Stock stays flat or moves up in price.

Maximum Risk: The stock declines in value. The loss is offset by the amount of the credit spread and the appreciation in the deferred anchor put.

Summary: If the stock stays flat or moves up, the credit spread will expire worthless and you will keep the credit. However, the deferred put will decline in value in line with the long stock position price rise. If the long stock position moves down, the loss will be offset by the amount of the credit spread and the appreciation in the deferred anchor put.

The following are this week’s Low Cost Put Hedge Selections. Each week, if conditions warrant one or more new stock positions are added to the Open Positions list. These stocks have a Bullish technical Opinion from Market Edge. The stocks and option spreads are added to the portfolio based on Monday’s opening prices. The stocks are removed from the portfolio after twelve weeks or if the Market Edge Opinion is downgraded from Bullish.
