I show a couple of examples below that give you the flavor of the
|
||||
possibilities of the collar strategy. With these examples, you can experi-
|
||||
ment yourself with a structure that fits your particular needs. Look on
|
||||
my website for a collar scenario calculator that will allow you to visualize
|
||||
the collar and understand the payoff structure given different conditions.
|
||||
For these examples, I am assuming that I bought Qualcomm stock at
|
||||
$55 per share. Qualcomm is now trading for $64.71—an unrealized gain
|
||||
of 17.7 percent.

Collar 1: 169 Days to Expiration

Strike Price ($) Bid (Ask) Price ($)

Purchased put 60.00 (2.14)

|

This collar yields the following best- and worst-case effective sell prices
|
||||
(ESPs) and corresponding returns (assuming a $55 buy price):
|
||||
ESP ($) Return (%)
|
||||
Best case 66.26 20.5
|
||||
Worst case 61.26 11.4
|
||||
Here we sold the $65-strike calls for $3.40 and used those proceeds to
|
||||
buy the $60-strike put options at $2.14. This gave us a net credit of $1.26,
|
||||
which we simply add to both strike prices to calculate our ESP . We add the
|
||||
net credit to the call strike because if the stock moves above the call strike,
|
||||
we will end up delivering the stock at the strike price while still keeping the
|
||||
net credit. We add the net credit to the put strike because if the stock closes
|
||||
below the put strike, we have the right to sell the shares at the strike price
|
||||
and still keep the net credit. The return numbers are calculated on the basis
|
||||
of a $55 purchase price and the ESPs listed. Thus, by setting up this collar in
