A MONSTER trade - Don't Hold Til Expiration!In this video I present a cautionary tale from trading history to show why it is a very bad idea from a risk management standpoint to hold options until expiration. This example comes from NASDAQ:MNST in 2014 when NYSE:KO made a surprise announcement that led to a huge move in the stock.
MNST
New Pairs Trade (Long PEP vs Short MNST)Hey traders, today I share a pairs trade I put on, going long $PEP and short $MNST in equal amounts betting on a reversion to the mean in the next couple of days and with a tight stop loss to limit the downside.
These are two similar stocks which make for a great pair and you can see on the Range Strength indicator the pair is currently trading in a strong range which is what we want to see before we take a signal from the Buy Sell Bands.
Stay tuned as i'll be updating this trade idea as it progresses.
Have a great weekend!
