Profit if ACGL is Up, Down or Flat Now, since ACGL is trading in the Keltner Channel ‘Buy Zone’ this offers a prime trade entry opportunity. Let’s use the Hughes Optioneering calculator to look at the potential returns for an ACGL 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 ACGL stock 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 ACGL on 2/3/2022 before commissions. Built in Profit Potential For this option spread, the calculator analysis below reveals the cost of the spread is $305 (circled). The maximum risk for an option spread is the cost of the spread. The analysis reveals that if ACGL stock is flat or up at all at expiration the spread will realize a 63.9% return (circled). And if ACGL stock decreases 7.5% at option expiration, the option spread would make a 37.9% return (circled). 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.
