You can pay all the way up to $4.50 for this spread and it still makes sense. If you can?t trade options, then buy the stock.
If you can?t buy the options, then buy the stock outright. I think we continue a slow grind up into the end of the year.
I wanted to get this Trade Alert out before Janet Yellen speaks this afternoon. At this point, she can only hint about rising interest rates, which is great news for financials.
If you want broader sector diversification, buy the Financial Select Sector SPDR (XLF). Its three largest holdings are Wells Fargo (WFC), (Berkshire Hathaway (BRKB), and JP Morgan Chase & Co. (JPM).

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.
Here are the specific trades you need to execute this position:
Buy 24 January, 2016 (MSFT) $60 calls at????.?.$7.30
Sell short 24 January, 2016 (MSFT) $65 calls at..?.$3.10
Net Cost:??????????????????.?.....$4.20
Potential Profit: $5.00 - $4.20 = $0.80
(24 X 100 X $.80) = $1,920 or 1.92% profit for the notional $100,000 portfolio.
