RE: [TheOptionClub.com] Re: BWB adjustment plan

 

Don't know how active or aggressive you are but I'd add a ladder here: -10
90p/+10 89p/+10 88p for zero debit which you should be able to get (maybe
even for a slight credit). That leaves -20 89/+10 88/+20 87.

Depending on how things play out this gives you a few outs. 1) if tlt moves
back higher you just wait it through and buy back your risk(or ignore it)
expiration week. 2) if tlt drifts toward 89 you either double down of sorts
via something like a -10 89/+20 88 backspread for even or revert back to
your original position by selling back the ladder (either the +10 90/-10
89/-10 88 or +10 90/-10 89/-10 87 depending on prices with the idea of
adding a credit or adjusting for zero additional debit). 3) on a big gap or
swift move down to and through 89, sell out the extra gamma from the ladder
by selling the atm strike at the time (e.g. at 88 add +20 89/-40 88/+10 87
for $0 or better) and then work to fight the remaining short otm vertical.
