Trade Alert - (AAPL) June 26, 2020 - BUY

Trade Alert

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.


Alert

 

Trade Alert - (AAPL) – BUY

Buy the Apple (AAPL) July 2020 $320-$330 in-the-money vertical Bull Call spread at $8.40 or best

Opening Trade

6-26-2020

expiration date: July 17, 2020

Portfolio weighting: 10%

Number of Contracts = 12 contracts

I am going to use the 2,662-point in the Dow, 10% dip from the recent top, to dive back into Apple. We have support at the 50-day moving average.

Also, I believe the recent weakness is due to the quarter end rebalancing, which leaves institutional investors large buyers of bonds and sellers of stock. This ends in two days. Some $47 points lower to our first $330 strikes price should be ample room to handle that.

I love Apple for the long term, and I don’t believe we are going to break to new lows in the next 14 trading days. We are on the eve of 5G phones, which will become the greatest moneymaker of all time. This trade is essentially a bet that we don’t see a major crash again like we saw in February-March. Apple is now the preeminent “safe” stock in the market.

I am therefore buying the Apple (AAPL) July 2020 $320-$330 in-the-money vertical Bull Call spread at $8.40 or best.

Don’t pay more than $9.00 or you will be chasing.

DO NOT USE MARKET ORDERS UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.

Simply enter your limit order, wait five minutes, and if you don’t get done, cancel your order and increase your bid by 10 cents with a second order.

This is a bet that Apple (AAPL) will not trade below $330 by the July 17 option expiration day in 14 trading days.

Here are the specific trades you need to execute this position:

Buy 12 July 2020 (AAPL) $320 calls at……...…….………$39.00

Sell short 12 July 2020 (AAPL) $330 calls at…………...$30.60

Net Cost:……………………..........…….………..………….….....$8.40

Potential Profit: $10.00 - $8.40 = $1.60

(12 X 100 X $1.60) = $1,920 or 19.04% in 14 trading days.

 

 

To see how to enter this trade in your online platform, please look at the order ticket above, which I pulled off of Interactive Brokers.

If you are uncertain on how to execute an options spread, please watch my training video by clicking here.

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.
