No risk to the upside 80% on KRE (Jade Lizard)

1 Haz 2017

In the last 90 days we had a 14% down move and got rejected at the 200 EMA. We might still have more room to go to the downside, but I am betting that we are still correcting and some buyers may start to come in.

With an implied volatility rank of 34 and 50 days to expiration, I sold a Jade lizard to eliminate the risk to the upside and still have room to the downside until my break even. We collected $1.12 per contract and have 81% probability of profit, our break even is at the $47.90 level.

The trade:

Sell the 52 Call

Credit Received $1.12 per contract
