524A COMPleTe gUIde TO THe FUTUreS MArKeT
In most cases, the trader who fi nds the profi t/loss profi le of this strategy attractive would be better
off buying a put, because the transaction costs are likely to be lower. However, if the trader already
holds a short futures position, buying a call may be a reasonable alternative to liquidating this position
and buying a put.
Strategy 12b: Option-protected Short Futures (Short Futures + Long
Out-of-the-Money Call)
example . Sell August gold futures at $1,200/oz and simultaneously buy an August $1,300 gold
futures call at a premium of $9.10/oz ($910). (See Table 35.12 b and Figure 35.12 b.)
Comment. As can be verifi ed by comparing Figure 35.12 b to Figure 35.5 c, this strategy is virtually
equivalent to buying an in-the-money put. Supplementing a short futures position with the purchase
of an out-of-the-money call will result in slightly poorer results if the market declines or advances
moderately, but will limit the magnitude of losses in the event of a sharp price advance. Thus, much
as with the long in-the-money put position, this strategy can be viewed as a short position with a
built-in stop.
