GM Long Options StrategyHeritage brands are making a comeback, as if they ever really went away. General Motors makes Buicks, Cadillacs, Chevrolets, GMCs as well as vehicles under the Holden, Baojun, and Wuling brands. Known for being reliable, they are a go-to for automotive-dependent businesses such as daily rental car companies, commercial fleet customers, leasing companies, and governments. Even though Detroit-based GM is more than a century old (founded in 1908), their newest offerings include safety and security services, automatic crash response, roadside/crisis/emergency assistance, navigation, remote control applications. They are also developing self-driving technology, and a highly anticipated electric pickup truck. Other areas of business are vehicle financing (through GM Financial) and subscription services in their app ecosystem. They also re-instated dividend payouts last year, adding to investor interest.
Technically, it has a couple of indicators going for it: a bullish flag, double bottom, some previous consolidation into a falling wedge. But that gap down... a good dip or a harbinger? And how to navigate this choppy stock market?
This protective options strategy makes up to 18% (12% annualized) and allows GM stock price to fall up to 22% (to below $27.98) before you start to lose any money.
Buy 1 $35 call
Sell 1 $40 call
Sell 1 $28 put

Hedged Options Strategy on KRNTIsrael-based Kornit Digital produces, markets and distributes high-speed industrial inkjet printers, digital printing systems, ink, software, and related products for the apparel, home decor, and printed textile industry. The company markets itself as a more sustainable alternative to overproduced goods, allowing for on-demand production as well as personalization and customization. Fashion today is also affected by social media and viral marketing. (Interesting Forbes feature.)
Technically, optimists may see a falling wedge and double bottom forming. A quick peek at its profile on Yahoo Finance also shows mostly "Buy" recommendations and and "Maintains" on value... but a bearish outlook long-term. The stock market has also been wavering, and with earnings season revving up, there may be more volatility ahead.
This simple variable-return options strategy would maintain growth potential of up to 21% (23% annualized) while protecting against a 23% drop (to below $20.72) as of expiration, in ~11 months.

NIFTY
Today, Nifty traded perfectly within previously identified range (please refer yesterday's chart & strategy). FIIs have flipped the their side from selling to buying and retail flipped from bullish to bearish . We need to trade patiently and wait for right trade setup then working level by level based on technical indicator is likely to remain profitable (e.g. buying near previous day's low and profit booking near major resistance level).
FIIs/Big players did exactly opposite to what retail traders did. Today, bears got trapped heavily. Retail traders should trade only in monthly options with strict SL else continue to donate your hard earned money to FIIs/Big players.
Tomorrow's expiry is likely to remain volatile. Bulls, bears & options writers are likely to get chance to make decent money who will work patiently. Shall we continue with sell on rise near resistance levels and buy on dips near major support levels if you get good trading setup ????? Yes, I think so. What do you think?????

Today's gap-up was sold in no time and once again, Nifty closed in red & below 50 DMA. Nifty is still trading above 100 DMA level.

Sell an IQ strangle in May with this pop in volatilityHello options sellers. I've decided to try and post some setups that I like, starting with a position IQ. NASDAQ:IQ saw a substantial drop in price lately, and with that drop in price came an elevation in volatility and IV Rank. It seems to have found some support around here, so I'm looking to take advantage of this pop in volatility and higher option prices by selling a strangle with May expiration.
For this trade setup, sell the May 21st (Monthly) 30 delta PUT, which is currently at $15. Then also sell the $25 CALL. You can collect about $138 dollars for this strangle.
The position is leaning long, with Delta of 17, and a probability of profit at 65%. The probability of collecting 50% of that $138 is 82%. Holding this position will give you $2.69 dollars in theta decay every day to start. With that credit, our break evens on this positions are $1.38 higher and lower from our strikes, which means we can walk away with cash as long as the price of IQ stays between $13.62 and $16.38 by May.
What I am hoping for is for IQ to bounce off this low, and maybe start to go sideways or trend back upwards towards 20. IQ can move, so my naked call is a bit further out of the money, but I like the current break even prices. I won't keep this on till May 21st. I'll wait for the stock to leak higher, and with that the volatility will come out of these option prices, then you throw on the Theta collected after a week or so then I should be able to buy back this strangle for $69, walking away with $69 in profits per 1 lot.
If IQ fails to find more buyers and starts to fall and test my $15 PUT then I'll drop the CALL down from $25 to $20 to collect some more premium. If I had to guess, most of the profits is going to come from a crush in volatility. I would have been better off putting this position on earlier in the week, but the current IV Rank of 31 will come back to the mean around 19 if this stock drifts a little higher. Let's see how this plays out.
