GILD - strong downside pressure could create compelling buy1M:
1W:
GILD continues to be under pressure. Bad news, unknowns, fear, & uncertainties. I'm not a 'value investor' and GILD's situation makes this a complex valuation. With that being said, low $70's would be compelling to me and below $70 very compelling. I hope this stock gets absolutely hammered.
TRADE IDEA: GILD AUG 19TH 79/94 SHORT STRANGLEGILD announces earnings on Monday after market close, so look to put this on sometime before the final bell.
Metrics:
Probability of Profit: 74%
Max Profit: $123/contract
Max Loss/Buying Power Effect: Undefined
Break Evens: 77.77/95.23
Notes: This is being done in the off hours, so I'm not getting accurate buying power effect metrics for this setup, and it's likely that the strikes will have to be tweaked slightly and/or the fill price adjusted during open market hours ... . Unsure if I'm going to do this trade myself, as I have some "housekeeping" to do on existing setups, and want to see first what buying power i've got left after I do that ... .
