Our Trades

GS – 18 DTE & 123 DTE

Bullish Diagonal Debit Spread – Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. (GS) – We maintain a bullish outlook over the longer term and plan to hold this position. To help manage risk ahead of this week’s Fed meeting, we sold a short-term OTM call against the long position last week.

MA – 18 DTE

Bullish Debit Spread – Mastercard Incorporated (MA) – We first entered this trade with a long call, given the very low IV rank of 6/100, which made spreads less appealing at the time. As the stock pulled back with the broader financial sector, we adjusted by selling a call against the position, converting it to a bull call spread to limit risk while preserving solid upside potential. Keeping in mind that expiration is nearing, we will maintain the position.

SCHW – 123 DTE

Bullish Long Call – Charles Schwab Corp. (SCHW) – We maintain our bullish outlook on Schwab. After our initial long call reached a delta of 1.00, we captured the gain and rolled into a higher strike call with a 0.80 delta and later expiration. With the Fed meeting this week, we will continue to monitor the position and may sell calls to reduce risk if the timing is appropriate.

SPOT – 39 DTE

Bearish Credit Spread – Spotify Technology (SPOT) – We recently established this position, it is showing a slight gain, and we plan to stay the course for now.

TFC – 32 DTE

Bullish Debit Spread – Truist Financial Corporation (TFC) – The position is showing a small loss, but with the Fed meeting this week, we plan to stay the course for now.
