Why Be Bullish Utilities?
Utilities (XLU) 2-YR Chart
Utilities (XLU) Implied Volatility
CME FedWatch Tracker (June Meeting)
Bearish Utilities (XLU) Trade
XLU ($63.88) Buy June 65/70 Call Spread for ~$1.50
Buy to open 1 June 65 call for ~$1.85
Sell to open 1 June 70 call at ~$0.35
Break-Even on June Expiration:
Profits of up to $3.50 between $66.50 and $70 with a max gain above $70
Losses of up to $1.50 between $65 and $66.50 with a max loss below $65
Trade Rationale & Management:
This trade idea risks 2.5% of the ETF price and has a break-even up 4% with a max payout of 5.5% if the ETF is up ~10% in two and a half months
As with all long premium directional trade ideas, we will cut the loss if the position is half the original premium paid
Caterpillar (CAT) 4-YR Chart
Why Fade Caterpillar?
Bearish Caterpillar (CAT) Trade
CAT (~$357.50) Buy to Open 1 May 350 put for ~$11
Break-Even on May Expiration:
Profits below $339
Losses of up to $11 between $339 and $350 with max loss above
Trade Rationale and Management:
This trade idea risks about 3% of the stock price and has a break-even down of ~5%
The stock is up 21% in the year, doubling the performance of the SPX and up 66% in the last 12 months, compared to the SPX's 31% gains
If the stock starts to move towards the long put strike, I will look to speed up by selling a lower strike put, creating a put spread.
May expiration will catch Q1 earnings the last week of April targeting the breakout level from late January
As with all long premium directional trade ideas, we will cut the loss if the position is half the original premium paid
