Looks like we have another home run on our hands staying long the US dollar.
At this morning?s opening price of $2.00 we have achieved the maximum potential profit for the Currency Shares Japanese Yen Trust (FXY) December, 2015 $82-$84 in-the-money vertical bear put spread, even though we have 15 trading days left until the December 18 expiration.
I don?t really believe this price, but that?s what I pulled off the Optionshouse trading platform just now in the screenshot below.
However, it is safe to assume that you might get done around $1.97. So just place a limit order around that and wait for an execution, no matter how long it takes.
With 87% of the potential profit in hand, there is no point in carrying on. The risk/reward is no longer favorable.
This is a big week event wise. On December 4 we have both the European Central Bank and Vienna OPEC meeting. The Federal Reserve is blabbering non-stop these days. And another Russian jet could get shot down, their missile defense technology is so out of date.
If any of these by chance trigger a yen rally, I want to be flat and have the dry powder with which to resell it. You never know.
Buy yourself a drink after work tonight. You can afford it!
It appears that you have become a pretty hot trader since you signed up for this service.
This trade takes the Mad Hedge Fund Trader year-to-date performance up to a positively stratospheric 43%.
If instead of the options you bought the ProShares Ultra Short Yen ETF (YCS), take profits for the short term, but keep it for the long term. The fundamentals for the Japanese yen are looking worse than ever.
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.
