When John identifies a strategic exit point, he will send you an alert with specific trade information as to what security to sell, when to sell it, and at what price. Most often, it will be to TAKE PROFITS, but, on rare occasions, it will be to exercise a STOP LOSS at a predetermined price to adhere to strict risk management discipline.
Trade Alert - (JPM) – BUY
BUY the JP Morgan (JPM) October 2021 $130-$140 in-the-money vertical Bull Call spread at $8.90 or best
Opening Trade
Trade Date: 9-20-2021
Expiration Date: October 15, 2021
Portfolio weighting: 10%
Number of Contracts = 11 contracts
If you don’t do options, buy the stock. My target for (JPM) this year is $200, up 32%.
I told you I’d be back in this name.
Bank shares have been joined at the hip with interest rates for the best eight months, and I believe that both rates and bank shares have much higher to go. With $3.5 trillion in new government spending about to be approved, but not funded, it can’t go any other way.
And China’s Largest Real Estate Developer Goes Bust, the China Evergrande Group, with $300 billion in debt just gave us a great entry point. The move smashed risk markets globally, opening the Dow Average down 850. Bitcoin plunged 10%.
I am therefore buying the JP Morgan (JPM) October 2021 $130-$140 in-the-money vertical Bull Call spread at $8.90 or best
Don’t pay more than $9.30 or you’ll be chasing.
That has given us a gift. (JPM) is the class act in the global banking sector, and CEO Jamie Diamond is the best CEO in the country.
I believe that massive government borrowing and spending will drive US interest rates up through the roof and the value of the US dollar (UUP) down. Banks love high-interest rates because they vastly improve profit margins.
This is a bet that JP Morgan (JPM) will not fall below $140 by the October 15, 2021 options expiration day in 19 trading days.
Here are the specific trades you need to execute this position:
Buy 11 October 2021 (JPM) $130 calls at……..….………$22.00
Sell short 11 October 2021 (JPM) $140 calls at………....$13.10
Net Cost:……………………..……........………..………….….....$8.90
Potential Profit: $10.00 - $8.90 = $1.10
(11 X 100 X $1.10) = $1,210 or 12.36% in 19 trading days.

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.
Keep in mind that these are ballpark prices at best. After the alerts go out, prices can be all over the map.
