Hi Advanced Traders!
Let's set up some more bear call spreads as we enter an environment of uncertainty and fear from the Federal Reserve's future rate hikes.
AMD Bear Call Spreads
This week, let's continue to roll our bear call spreads and/or open new positions. We can see that AMD is trending lower, which is why I have a short-term bearish outlook on this stock.
Expiration Date: February 4, 2022
Step 1: Buy 1 $175 strike call option with a delta 0.06 for $60
Step 2: Sell 1 $155 strike call option with a delta 0.18 for $175
Step 3: Set a buy stop order of 100 shares at $154
Credit received: $175 - $60 = $115
The goal is for AMD to stay under $154 from now until February 4. If AMD rallies up towards $165, we will buy 100 shares at $164 each, sell our purchased call option, and convert our trade into a covered call.
As always, feel free to tweak the width of your spreads to your risk tolerance.
Have a wonderful weekend! 😀
