I’m going to close out this trade for a quick 40% win

TSN at 84.50
I’m going to set up a bullish call vertical, looking for a move towards 90 level.
This is a bullish strategy with limited risk of $165.00 and limited potential reward of $335.00.
This strategy will profit if the stock closes above $86.65 by Jan 21, 2022.
There is a 32.31% probability this will happen.

In this video, I cover the basics of a Bear Trap set up in the S&P500 options (SPX)
Similar trade can be set up using SPY or Emini options, as well as using different timeframes (days to expiration)
FCX at 38.84
We’re seeing some bullish activity in the FEB expiration cycle

SPX at 4665
I’m going to set up a BEAR TRAP with 23 days until expiration.
This trade is a combination of a PUT DEBIT SPREAD and a PUT CREDIT SPREAD.
I’m looking for a 10 point wide put debit spread that cost around 2.00 and a 50 point wide put credit spread that will bring in about 2.50 credit.
This will leave me with a NET credit of about 0.50
This structure has no risk on the upside and all of the risk is on the downside.
Buying Power Reduction for this structure is the difference between the widths of the spreads (50-10) or 40 points, multiplied by 100 and this makes it $4,000 per 1 contract.
Since we’re collecting 0.50 or $50 per 1 contract, this will bring BPR down to $3,950
I plan on holding this trade very close to expiration and will stop out IF/WHEN SPX breaks under 4250

SPX at 4685
I’m going to set up a BEAR TRAP with 24DTE (days to expiration).
This is a combination of a 10 point wide put debit spread and a 50 point wide put credit spread.
We’re looking for a NET credit around 0.70c
This trade does not have risk on the upside and we’ll get to keep initial credit if the underlying (SPX) is above the long put of the put debit spread.
On the downside, we’ll make money at expiration all the way down to the short strike of the put credit spread.
The best case for this trade is SPX slowly moves inside the short put of the put debit spread and a short put of the put credit spread.

SPX at 4688
We’ve been in this trade for 8 days.
The BEAR moved in and now out of the trap, but that does not mean that it wont return. I’m going to close out this trade to keep things moving along.
Right now, this trade is showing another credit to close.
We opened this trade for a 0.50c credit and now we can close for a 0.20c credit. This should NET a total of 0.70c credit in total.
Who doesnt like to get paid to open and to close a trade?
