Is Mastercard Staggering Toward a Breakout?Mastercard has gone nowhere for a year, but now it could be ready to start moving. Notice how prices jumped on November 9 and moved sideways for the next six weeks. MA accomplished a few things technically during that time. First, the credit-card giant managed to consolidate above an important zone around $330. That was the bottom of its bearish gap when the Covid correction began on Feb. 24. It was also resistance in early August and failed support in late October. Additionally, the $330 area was near its 50-day simple moving average (SMA). The next level that matters is approximately $345. That was the top of MA's range in early December. Old resistance could be turning into new support once again, but $15 higher. Additionally, the 21-day exponential moving average (EMA) crossed above the 50-day simple moving average (SMA) in late November and has remained there since. That can indicate the trend is turning more bullish. MA is also interesting fundamentally because its business stands to benefit from a rebound in the economy after the pandemic. Finally, Wednesday's price action included a lower low than Tuesday and a higher high. That kind of bullish outside day can indicate buyers are taking control.

$MA - 5-count Breakout with Pending CatalystHas recently broken out of a wedge with internal 5-count started in early November on news of stimulus passing. A larger stimulus payment would be very bullish for $MA - likely enough to take it to & through ATH of ~$367. Below are my targets & extended targets. Entry: Either re-test of Wedge ($342) or Break above $348.21. TG1: $355 TG2: $363 Extended TG3: $370 Extended TG4: $380 Invalidated: <$330 Like & follow if you enjoy my work :)

Call Ratio Spread DebitThe ratio call spread for debit is the same strategy as ratio call spread credit. But now, the upper and lower strike price are farther apart. This change, give different mathematical results as you can see on the chart. If you didn’t read the previous post, please do. In the chart we see a ratio spread of 2:1, in this case, the options that were sold are now worth less than the call that was bought. So this position is now with debit. Inputs: MA (Mastercard) Debit paid -> 3.8 (-$380 for one position) Stock price -> 338 Upper strike -> 350 , 2 calls sold Lower strike -> 330 , 1 call bought Days to expire -> 36 Implied Volatility -> 0.309 (30.9%) Date -> 12/11/2020 The Debit paid is $380, the maximum profit is $1620 with less than 1% probability, the maximum loss is theoretically unlimited. In this example, one call was bought at 330 strike price for 12.7 and two calls were sold at 350 strike price for 4.45 each, in total 8.9. The debit = 8.9-12.7 = (-3.8) If at expiration the stock price will be below the lower strike (330), all of the options will be worthless and the loss will be only (-$380). Maximum profit = Difference between strike – debit paid = 350-330 – 3.8 = 16.2 This position is neutral. At the expiration: Between 333.8 to 366.2 the position will be with a profit. $0 - $1620 Under 330.17 the position will lose (-$380) no matter what price. Above 369.80 the risk is getting bigger.

Call Ratio Spread CreditA ratio call spread is a neutral strategy in which we buy several calls at a lower strike and sells more calls at a higher strike. In a ratio call spread with credit, there is no downside risk. The ratio spread that we see on the chart has a ratio of 2:1. We can see from the chart the non-linear behavior of options. Inputs: MA (Mastercard) Credit received -> 3.1 ($310 for one position) Stock price -> 332 Upper strike -> 340 , 2 calls sold Lower strike -> 330 , 1 call bought Days to expire -> 37 Implied Volatility -> 0.291 (29.1%) Date -> 11/11/2020 The credit received is $310, the maximum profit is $1310 with less than 1% probability, the maximum loss is theoretically unlimited. In this example, one call was bought at 330 strike price for 14.2 and two calls were sold at 340 strike price for 8.65 each, in total 17.3. The credit = 17.3-14.2 = 3.1 If at expiration the stock price will be below the lower strike (330), all of the options will be worthless and all the credit will be received. The maximum profit at expiration for a ratio spread occurs if the stock is exactly at the striking price of the sold options. The reason is that the call that was bought has some profit (stock price above strike price) and the sold options are worthless. Maximum profit = The spread (340-330=10) + Credit received (17.3) – Debit paid (14.2) = 13.1 => $1310 (mulitpling by 100 shers per option contract) The risk in this position is to the upside. The calculation for the break-even at expiration. Break-even point = Upper strike price + the points of max profit = 340+13.1=353.1 This strategy has a high probability in general and even more so when used correctly. The example that has been used could profit the most in the blue zone, where the profit is greater than 50% of the maximum profit, but it will take 34 days out of 37 to reach there. How implied volatility affect this position? In a ratio spread, there are more options sold than bought, in the previous posts we saw that volatility increase is harming sold options and benefits bought options, this example is no different. 10% increase in implied volatility, the lines are now in a worse location compare to the original position. 10% decrease in implied volatility, the lines are now in a better location compare to the original position. The position can now reach the 50% max profit zone in 30 days. The next post will be on ratio spread debit, that looks different from the ratio spread credit, the solution to the partial differential equations of the Black-Scholes model can be seen.

Clear bullish Strenght on the Market / MASTERCARDLet's see why we expect more bullish pressure coming on the market based on technical items. a) The price made a new ATH in September 2020, and after that, we observed a Massive Corrective structure. (This type of structures can tell us about the Accumulation process going on) b) In November, we observed a breakout of the Massive corrective structure c) Now, after a month of the breakout, we can see a minor corrective structure on the edge of the previous one d) Based on the current levels and structures, we expect a continuation of the bullish movement IF the price breaks above 354 (Above the previous All-time high) e) Our Targets are 375.98 as the first level and 402.18 as the second level. f) IF the price goes in the expected direction, we will wait for a 50 days resolution.
