OPENING: XOP JUNE 15TH 32 LONG/APRIL 20TH 35 SHORT CALL DIAGONAL

已更新
... for a 2.49/contract debit.

Metrics:

Max Profit: 51/contract* (20.5% ROC)
Max Loss: 249/contract**

Notes: As with any diagonal, there aren't many metrics to look at. If you just leave the setup alone, however, your max loss is 249/contract, and your max profit is 51/contract. Max profit is realized with a finish above the 35 strike at expiry; max loss, with a finish below 32 and no rolls of the short call to reduce cost basis.

Another way to look at the setup is that you're paying only 2.49 for a 3.00 spread ... .

* -- Assuming no short call rolls and a finish above the 35 strike.
** -- Assuming no short call rolls and a finish below the 32 strike.
交易進行
Managing aggressively: rolling the April 20th 35 strike down to the April 27th 34.5 for a realized gain and a credit of .31/contract; cost basis at 2.18
交易結束:目標達成
Pending order filled at .05 short of max profit for the existing spread -- a 2.45 credit; .27/contract profit (10.8% ROC). Had intended to roll the ITM short call for additional credit, but couldn't catch it in time.
