AAPL 3 day bull put credit spread
With the U.S. stock marketing selling off sharply at the open, following Japan's Nikkei Index dropping off 11%, I started watching the chart on AAPL. AAPL opened $11 lower than where it closed the previous day and I believe AAPL will stay about where it is now or rally between now and expiration Friday, which is in three days. So I sold the March 2011 330/325 puts for a $.60 credit. While I'm hoping to enjoy over a 13% return in three days, I realize this is a high-risk trade. Although there are a few adjustments I could make if this trade goes against me, I am not willing to take ownership of AAPL stock at $330 so I'll be monitoring this trade closely and if AAPL breaks below $335, I'll close this trade out.
