I’m not sure if you missed this but take a look at an example of a great potential trade I spotted.

Salesforce.com Inc. (CRM) is heading towards the 0 on the TSI Indicator. Don’t worry, I’ll walk you through what that means.

Each candle on the weekly chart represents price movement over a 5-day (week) period.  The indicator at the bottom of the chart is a True Strength Indicator (TSI). To learn more about TSI, click here.

If CRM’s price continues to move DOWN in this example, you could consider a PUT trade.  If the price continues to move to $241, you could consider a PUT option trade. We are expecting the TSI indicator to continue to head DOWN.  CRM is bullish as the signal line moves below the 0.  The stock price is $241.90. The short-term target is $230 and then LOWER.

You could use a PUT option to increase the potential of this trade. Option trading offers the potential of a lower initial investment and higher percentage gain.   It is like renting stock versus buying out right. 

If you bought one PUT option contract covering 100 shares of CRM’s stock with a Sept 20th expiration date for the 240 strike, the premium would be approximately $16.10 per share, or a total of $1610 for the contract of 100 shares.  If price FELL the expected $10 over the next few weeks, the premium would likely increase approximately $5.00 to $21.10. This is a gain of 31% profit.  That would be a nice trade over a short period of time!
