Trade Alert - (JPM) December 20, 2024 - EXPIRATION AT MAX PROFIT

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.

EXPIRATION of the JP Morgan Chase (JPM) December 2024 $210-$220 in-the-money vertical Bull Call debit spread at $10.00

Closing Trade

12-20-2024

expiration date: December 20, 2024

Number of Contracts = 12 contracts

Since I have a record of ten positions expiring at max profit on the Friday, December 20 options expiration, I am going to start sending out the closing trade alerts so you don’t get overwhelmed.

Since I issued it 30 trading days ago, the shares have risen by 15.91% above the nearest $220 strike price.

Just to be clear, this position does not expire until after the close on Friday, December 20.

As a result, you get to take home $1,320 or 12.36% in 30 days.

Well done, and on to the next trade.

You don’t have to do anything with this expiration.

Your broker will automatically use your long position to cover your short position, canceling out the total holdings.

The entire profit will be credited to your account on Monday morning, December 23, and the margin freed up.

Some firms charge you a modest $10 or $15 fee for performing this service.

The flight of money right now is from small, undercapitalized, and questionable to large, overcapitalized, and rock-solid balance sheets.

There is a new theme in the post-election market. Falling interest rates are out, deregulation is in.

There is no more regulated industry than financials, as many of you in the industry already know. Any lightening of the burden flows straight to the bottom line. It also opens up new business for (JPM) in that antitrust is out the window. That will lead to a big increase in mergers & acquisitions business, where (JPM) is very active.
