I?m sorry, but I just don?t believe that we will see a weak dollar potentially going into the first interest rate rise in nine years.
If my friend, Janet, pulls the trigger, then the greenback will become the only currency in the world that is raising rates. Currencies just don?t decline in those circumstances.
In that case, we want to go out and sell short the weakest link in the currency milieu, and that is the Japanese yen.
Even if Janet doesn?t move in September, the prospect will hang over the yen like a Damocles sword.
In addition, the yen is bumping up key chart resistance around Y125. A decisive breakout would clear the way towards Y130, my yearend target for the beleaguered Japanese currency.
A short in the yen is a safe, low risk trade right here in a world gone crazy.
You can buy this vertical bear put spread anywhere within a $1.70-$1.80 range and have a reasonable expectation of making money on this trade.
If you can?t get these prices do not chase, wait for rally.
If you can?t do the options, then buy the YCS outright.
The best execution can be had by placing your bid for the entire spread in the middle market and waiting for the market to come to you. The difference between the bid and the offer on these deep in-the-money spread trades can be enormous.
Don?t execute the legs individually or you will end up losing much of your profit. Spread pricing can be very volatile on expiration months farther out.
If the price of this spread has moved more than 5% by the time you receive this Trade Alert, don?t chase it. Wait for the next one. There are plenty of fish in the sea.
Here are the specific trades you need to execute this position:
Buy 57 September, 2015 (FXY) $82 puts at?????$3.85
Sell short 57 September, 2015 (FXY) $80 puts at..?.$2.10
Net Cost:??????????????????.....$1.75
Profit at expiration: $2.00 - $1.75 = $0.25
(57 X 100 X $0.25 ) = $1,425 or 1.43% profit for the notional $100,000 portfolio.
