  SWING TRADING USING OPTIONS
  

Bearish Moves: #8. Long Put Calendar

 

 
 
 
The Long Put Calendar Option Strategy is a long(er) term option strategy that profits when the underlying stock or ETF goes down in value.  For a swing trade, that is expected to last for longer than 60 days, the Long Put Calendar option strategy is an options strategy for when a trader, who has a longer-term bearish outlook, wants to use far less margin and incur less risk than using traditional shorting of stocks or ETFs.

 

I will touch on how to spot swing trades and how one could limit risk, capital requirements, while increasing the Return on Investment (ROI) of a portfolio or trading account when using the Long Put Calendar but we will focus on spotting when, where and why one would want to use this strategy over any other trade. Join Eric "The Wolfman" Wilkinson, former Chicago Board of Trade floor trader and 25 years professional trader, as he will show you how to spot the best time to use the Long Put Calendar option strategy.
