Here’s How My Loser Strategy is Working Now
On May 27th, I wrote a Traders Daily Direction titled: Lever Up with Options.
I talked about how you can use options to turn small moves in a stock into big profits.
We looked at Deere & Company (DE), and I showed you this chart:
I was looking for the stock to move lower – a true loser stock!
But at $357/share, even a $30 move would only be a small win on the stock.
So, I recommended a put option.
Specifically, the DE Jul21 $330 puts (.DE210716P330).
At the time, that option was trading for $4.10.
As of yesterday, it was worth $7.30.
So even though DE stock has fallen by just 7.1%, the put option has a gain of 71.6%.
That’s 10X the return!
There was nothing complicated about this trade.
It was very straightforward.
Buy the put. Sit on your hands. And wait to take profits.
Additionally, your risk was defined.
This is one of the biggest benefits of put stock options.
At $410 per contract, that’s the most you could lose – even if Deere went to zero or somehow to the moon!
They allow traders to bet on a stock’s direction for a few dollars per share.
You don’t have to pony up tens of thousands of dollars like you would to get the same exposure from the stock by selling it short.
Is there a downside to options?
Sure.
Downside Risk to Options
As we’ve mentioned previously, every option has an expiration date.
They are only good for a set amount of time.
So, the move you are forecasting needs to happen sooner rather than later.
Otherwise, the value of those options will decline – a concept known as “time decay.”
Personally, I think Deere has further to fall.
After breaking its 100-day moving average, the stock appears to be entering a Stage 4 correction. And you can see my analysis in the graph below:
I wouldn’t be surprised to see shares below $300 apiece before the end of the year.
But as usual, I like to sell into strength and collect profits along the way.
Once an option doubles in value (the DE puts were up 121% Monday afternoon), I like to sell half of my position.
This way, I’ve recouped the entire investment and I have “financed the trade.”
Whatever I get for the remaining contracts is pure profit.
Remember, stocks surge in both directions.
Don’t be afraid to bet on a stock going lower, especially if fundamentals are deteriorating and institutions are bailing out.
Stocks usually go down much faster than they went up.
Next Level Loser Trade for Deere
Now, the first put option trade that I presented to you on May 27 is working and should work further as I see the stock dropping further to 300 bucks or worse.
But to get a bigger gain on this loser stock – I’m recommending the September 300 Put Option on Deere expiring on September 17. They are trading currently around 6.45 that for the contract representing 100 shares of Deere would cost 645 dollars plus any commissions if any.
And I would plan to sell if the option price hits 12.00 for a contract value of 1200 dollars that would nearly double your money on this loser stock.
Loser stocks – you don’t want to own them – but you can cash in on them. And that’s what I’ll keep showing you how to do safely in my Traders Daily Direction.
