Options Playbook Radio 160: FCX Debit Put Spread

Jun 1, 2017

Last week's episode looked at a backspread with calls. That strategy is on page 83 of the Options Playbook. This week, we will cover a debit put spread, which is on page 62.

In this session, Brian covers:

  • A review of last week's AMD backspread
  • Why look at FCX?
  • Why a long put spread?
  • Erring on the side of being too short or too long
  • Intrinsic value considerations
  • Picking strikes and expiration dates
  • Buying as much time premium as selling
