The upper strike here is well under a support level for the S&P 500 (SPY) that has held all the way back to the October crash.
Now that we have completed today?s final flush and cleaned out all the stop loss sales down to $198.68, it is worth taking a shot here on the long side. It?s ?Close you eyes and BUY? day.
Only 15 trading days to expiration on this one, and a Volatility Index (VIX) spike up to 22% gets us a nice return.
But keep a tight stop loss on this baby, in case we want to break more records on the (VIX).
You can BUY the (SPY) February, 2015 -$189-$194 in-the-money vertical bull call spread anywhere in the $3.80 - $4.20 range.
If you can't do spreads, stand aside on this one as the risk/reward on purchase is too great.
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.
