Hedge stock trades call in NCM/ Put on ASX ( ASX50 stocks)
Using strategies from Street smarts - two opposite set ups to hedge out market risk on June Options
Call on NCM - this is a modified ' momentum pinball ' set up anticipating a correction back up to middle of range only after ABC correction ; at money June calls 400 shares worth
Put on ASX - this is a new high then correction > 20 days High failure; called' Turtle Soup plus one ;
looking for typical correction based on previous negative drives and take profit above previous support ( old Highs);
at money Puts 100 shares worth only ( as hedged leg of trade 1 above - not a perfect hedge as missing 30 shares so skewed delta Positive market slightly ).
SHort / Put on JHX ( ASX200) - Turtle soup failure 20 day HiggThis is taking advantage of a Failure at new 20 day high, it beat 4 days ago,
but has corrected quickly back in....shows weakness.
I prefer Put options due to risk of false break out again at highs if pushes up one more time in next few days;
I figure June expiry is enough time and only looking for a 4% correction obvious support $1.00 below or more...
For $400 risk, I can profit about $250 after brokerage if works out.
I bought 500 slightly out of money puts with a delta of 0.43 gives position size equivalent of $ 6800 worth.
