OPTION TRADE OF THE DAY!

4-29

July Crude- On April 14th we recommended this trade Crude Range Trade- We see Crude running out of gas as it becomes range bound and are thinking that it will be trading somewhere between 43 and 53 dollars a barrel come the last week of June as the supply and demand levels reach an equilibrium. We like the trade as seen on the chart, we are buying the July 5300/4900/4500 Put Butterfly which is buying one 5300 July put, selling two 4900 puts (to collect premium), and buying one 4500 put for protection. This trade is costing under $500 which is your risk and the profit potential at 4900 is about $4,000 before cost consideration. The trade would be profitable with the market between 45.50 and 52.50 with the most return being seen at 4900 at expiration. Above or below the spread your losses are limited to the premium paid.

Now we are adding the other side to the trade, a “Call Fly” where we are buying the July 53 calls, selling two 57 calls and buying the July 61 calls at a premium of $5-600. This addition would cover the upside of the market and the trade has limited risk (the total amount of the spreads plus transaction fees) with the ability to be profitable from 46-52 and 54-60. The trade would lose the entire premium paid if on expiration the market was above the 61 or below 45 or exactly at 53.
