Read MoreBuy an extra November 1 $125 Call. I would prefer to pay $1.54 for the extra call, which is the net credit received from the initial credit spread. This makes the debit for the long call equal to the net credit received from the initial trade, putting us at even as far as debits and credits are concerned.
I like to call this strategy, “I don’t want the cheese anymore; just get me out of the trap.” If we break significantly above $120, the trade could become profitable – the sooner, the better for that breakout to the upside. If the stock pulls back and declines, we’ll likely let everything expire worthless, and in that case, we would break even on the entire position.
If you let too much time pass and the stock drifts up, that’s a bad outcome. We still have a short spread from $120 to $125 at expiration, and if we ride it all the way to expiration and the stock stops at $125, the extra long call does not help.
