| Profit if SHW is Up, Down or Flat Now, since SHW is currently making a series of higher highs and higher lows and will likely rally from here, let’s use the Hughes Optioneering calculator to look at the potential returns for a SHW call option spread. The Call Option Spread Calculator will calculate the profit/loss potential for a call option spread based on the price change of the underlying stock/ETF at option expiration in this example from a 7.5% increase to a 7.5% decrease in SHW at option expiration. The goal of this example is to demonstrate the ‘built in’ profit potential for option spreads and the ability of spreads to profit if the underlying stock is up, down or flat at option expiration. Out of fairness to our paid option service subscribers we don’t list the option strike prices used in the profit/loss calculation. The prices and returns represented below were calculated based on the current stock and option pricing for SHW on 4/22/2021 before commissions. Built in Profit Potential For this option spread, the calculator analysis below reveals the cost of the spread is $365 (circled). The maximum risk for an option spread is the cost of the spread. The analysis reveals that if SHW stock is flat or up at all at expiration the spread will realize an 82.7% return (circled). And if SHW stock decreases 7.5% at option expiration, the option spread would make an 82.7% return (circled). Due to option pricing characteristics, this option spread has a ‘built in’ 82.7% profit potential when the trade was initiated. Option spread trades can result in a higher percentage of winning trades compared to a directional option trade if you can profit when the underlying stock/ETF is up, down or flat. A higher percentage of winning trades can give you the discipline needed to become a successful trader. The Hughes Optioneering Team is here to help you identify winning trades just like this one.

Trade High Priced Stocks for $350 With Less Risk One of the big advantages to trading option spreads is that spreads allow you to trade high price stocks like Amazon, Google, Netflix or Apple for as little as $350. With an option spread you can control 100 shares of Google for $350. If you were to purchase 100 shares of Google at current prices it would cost about $225,000. With the stock purchase you are risking $225,000 but with a Google option spread that costs $350 your maximum risk is $350 so your dollar risk is lower with option spreads compared to stock purchases.
