Good morning! I noticed something on my charts I wanted to share with you. (I have also included an update on a previous trade at the end of this message.)
I was going through various patterns to look for great trades and found a great example in Chewy Inc. (CHWY) that shows how powerful one of my favorite indicators is at spotting great trades. True Strength Index is effective at spotting strong trends and weeding out the weaker moves. To learn more about TSI, click here.
When TSI moves ABOVE 0, it is a sign of BULLISH strength. In this case, we can see that on the CHWY chart below.
It is important to confirm this momentum. With CHWY we would want to see it move ABOVE $26. If that happens the next target would be $30 or HIGHER.
Option trading offers the potential of a lower initial investment and higher percentage gain. It is like renting stock versus buying out right. Let’s take a look.
If you bought one CALL option contract covering 100 shares of CHWY’s stock with a July 19th expiration date for the 27.50 strike, the premium would be approximately $1.10 per share, or a total of $110 for the contract of 100 shares. If price ROSE the expected $4 over the next few weeks, the premium would likely increase approximately $2.00 to $3.10. This is a gain of 182% profit. That would be a nice trade over a short period of time!
I want to remind you that you can sell to close and take profit any time along the line before the expiration date. You don’t have to hold the contract until expiration.
I love to trade, and I love to teach. It is my thing. I am truly thankful for you and your efforts.
Wendy
Past potential trade update:
We discussed buying EA Calls. On 6-13 the July 19th 135 call was $3.60. You could have sold on 6-18 for $4.85, a 35% profit.
