Example: The following prices exist:
|
||||
XYZ, 37½;
|
||||
XYZ July 40 call, 2; and
|
||||
XYZ July 35 call, 4.
|
||||
Part II: Call Option Strategies
|
||||
If one were to short 100 XYZ at 37½ and to buy one July 40 call for 2 and one July
|
||||
35 call for 4, he would have a position that is similar to a reverse hedge except that
|
||||
the maximum risk would be realized anywhere between 35 and 40 at expiration.
|
||||
Although this risk is over a much wider range than in the normal reverse hedge, it is
|
||||
now much smaller in dimension. Table 4-3 and Figure 4-3 show the results from this
|
||||
type of position at expiration. The maximum loss is 3½ points ($350), which is a
|
||||
smaller amount than could be realized using any ratio strictly with the July 35 or the
|
||||
July 40 call. However, this maximum loss is realizable over the entire range, 35 to 40.
|
||||
Again, large potential profits are available if the stock moves far enough either to the
|
||||
upside or to the downside.
|
||||
This form of the strategy should only be used when the stock is nearly centered
|
||||
between two strikes and the strategist wants a neutral positioning of the break-even
|
||||
points. Similar types of follow-up action to those described earlier can be applied to
|
||||
this form of the reverse hedge strategy as well.
