Buy O Stock
As the chart shows, in March, the O 1-Month Price, crossed above the 10-Month simple moving average (SMA).
This crossover indicated the buying pressure for O stock exceeded the selling pressure. For this kind of crossover to occur, a stock has to be in a strong bullish uptrend.
Now, as you can see, the 1-Month Price is still above the 10-Month SMA. That means the bullish trend is still in play!
As long as the 1-Month price remains above the 10-Month SMA, the stock is more likely to keep trading at new highs and should be purchased.
109.3% Profit Potential for O Option
Now, since O’s 1-Month Price is trading above the 10-Month SMA this means the stock’s bullish rally will likely continue. Let’s use the Hughes Optioneering calculator to look at the potential returns for an O call option purchase.
When you use the 1% Rule to select an O in-the-money option strike price, O stock only has to increase 1% for the option to breakeven and start profiting! Remember, if you purchase an at-the-money or out-of-the-money call option and the underlying stock closes flat at option expiration it will result in a 100% loss for your option trade! In this example, if O stock is flat at 60.18 at option expiration, it will only result in a 3.2% loss for the O option compared to a 100% loss for an at-the-money or out-of-the-money call option.
For this specific call option, the calculator analysis below reveals if O stock increases 5.0% at option expiration to 63.19 (circled), the call option would make 53.1% before commission.
If O stock increases 10.0% at option expiration to 66.20 (circled), the call option would make 109.3% before commission and outperform the stock return more than 10 to 1*.
The leverage provided by call options allows you to maximize potential returns on bullish stocks.
