Specific Strategies: Raging Bull & Doomsdayer’s

by Dave Caplan

The following is an excerpt from Dave Caplan's The Option Secret

Let me dive right in and begin with “Raging Bull Strategies”. You think the market is grossly oversold – poised for a major move higher.

Let’s use silver as an example. Your analysis indicates that it is about to make a move from the $3.50 level to over $5.50. Your best estimate calls for $6.00 silver within the next 60 days.

The simplest and most common approach for a new investor is to buy a call. The call gives you the right, but not the obligation, to take a long position in the underlying futures. As the underlying futures gains, so does the call. You can either exercise the option and take your long futures position, or you can offset your option positions at a profit as it gains intrinsic value.

The more difficult question is which strike price to buy. Below is a table showing your choices for calls with 60 days to expiration on 5,000 troy ounces of silver.

Weekly Options: The Strike Price

by Wendy Kirkland

The following is an excerpt from Wendy Kirkland's Wealth Building with Weekly Options

The weekly option that we select for the weekly strategy should be at or slightly out-of-the-money. The agreed upon price at which the option can be exercised is the strike price; therefore, that price is a factor in the selection.

Let’s say you want to purchase a put option to sell Deere (DE). It’s current price is $79.34 a share. You can agree to sell shares of DE stock for $80 or you can agree to sell DE stock for $85. If both options cost the same which one would you choose to sell? The options with the $85 exercise or strike price. That’s a no-brainer.

Now let’s assume DE decreases in value to $75. If you had the right to sell the stock for $85, you could “exercise” your right, purchase the stock for $75, and then sell it for the strike price of $85, thus earning a profit of $10 per share or $1,000 for your 100 share option contract. Needless to say, you would not “exercise” your right to buy, if you owned the option with a $72.50 strike price. You would choose to do nothing because there would be no profit in it, and no reason to pay the fee to close the trade.

PULSE Options Weekly Newsletter

by Chris Verhaegh

The following is an excerpt from Chris Verhaegh’s PULSE Options Weekly Newsletter

Every week Chris Verhaegh publishes his “PULSE Options Weekly Newsletter”. The following is an excerpt from his most recent issue.

Market Wide Reports to be Released

The Federal Reserve (the “Fed”) releases the Meeting Minutes from their two-day FOMC Meeting (held in June) today, Wednesday (7/6). Typically the market remains somewhat flat until the actual release. But maybe some insight contained in the Minutes will cause the market to move further?

Thursday is the day between two major Government releases. And while it’s possible for the market to continue higher at this point in time, if the trend does continue this long, I would certainly buy Put options anticipating some exhaustion and an eventual reversal.

Then, Friday morning the Bureau of Labor Statistics releases the monthly Non-Farm Payroll (NFP) report. Since the “Jobs” number, as the NFP is often called, comes out one hour before the market opens; we should know before trading starts if we should expect a higher or lower open.

Last week was crazy volatile, all to the upside. If this upcoming week is crazy volatile, it should be in both directions!
