For today’s Trade of the Day, we will be looking at Walt Disney Co. symbol (DIS).

Before analyzing DIS’s chart, let’s take a closer look at the stock and its services. The Walt Disney Company, together with its subsidiaries, operates as an entertainment company worldwide. The Walt Disney Company was founded in 1923 and is based in Burbank, California.

The chart of DIS  below is a weekly chart with a CCI indicator at the bottom.  The description coming up next explains how to use the CCI.

Channel Commodity Index

Stockcharts.com provides a great definition of the Commodity Channel Index (CCI), which is a versatile indicator that can be used to identify a new trend or warn of extreme conditions. Originally, it was developed to identify cyclical turns in commodities, but the indicator can be successfully applied to indices, ETFs, stocks and other securities. In general, CCI measures the current price level relative to an average price level over a given period.

CCI is relatively high when prices are far above their average but is relatively low when prices are far below their average. In this manner, CCI can be used to identify overbought and oversold levels or breaks from one level to another.

A move down to the CCI -100 or the zero line can issue a Put entry signal as it moves from being bullish to bearish. A move toward -100 is a continuation of that bearishness.  Up through the 100 line creates a green fin of bullishness until it drops down through the -100 line.

A break below the zero line means it has gone from bullish to bearish and a drop below -100 suggests even more bearishness.

If you want to be a profit predator, this pattern is the key. See how to spot it here

On the CCI indicator below the DIS chart, notice how the line is has close to the the 0 line and is heading to the -100 line going into bearish territory.  This signals bearish moves with the thought that price may move down.

DIS’s Potential Trade

Please note and remember that I am typing this on Monday, two days before you receive it. The information I am sharing could change over those two days and is intended to share the opportunities that options offer us.

DIS has been mostly down the past few weeks. We want the CCI to go down to create a fin shape. We also want the price to go down to at least $108 before entering a trade. The first target would be $100.

Check Out How an Option Trade Could Pay Out Big Time

To buy stock shares of DIS today, price would be approximately $108.07. You would wait until the stock hit a bottom before buying stock.

This said, option trading offers the potential of a smaller initial investment and higher percentage gain even when price is expected to rise or fall. Let’s take a look.

If you bought one Put option contract covering 100 shares of DIS’s stock with an October 21st expiration date for the 100 strike, premium would be approximately $1.92 today, or a total of $192 per contract.  If the stock price fell the expected $8, the premium might increase approximately $4.00 to $5.92 per share on your 100-share contract. This is a 208% gain over a couple weeks.

Remember you can close an option trade anywhere along the line before expiration to take gains or stop a loss.

Options can offer a win, win, win trade opportunity. They often offer a smaller overall investment, covering more shares of stock, and potentially offer greater profits.

I love to trade, and I love to teach.  It is my thing.

I wish you the very best,
