Options Trading Strategies: The Butterfly Option

June 22, 2010   admin   No comments

American Express (AXP) options were actively traded yesterday highlighted by a bearish butterfly option purchased in the afternoon. With shares of AXP trading around $42.50 an options trader decided to implement his bearish view on AXP by purchasing the July 30/35/40 butterfly option for a total net debit of $0.34 (or $119,000 in total proceeds). Under this options trading strategy, the options trader bought 3500 July 30 for $0.09 ($31,500), sold 7000 July 35 puts at $0.16 ($112,000), and purchased 3500 July 40 puts for $0.57 ($199,500). The graph below highlights the P/L of the July 30/35/40 butterfly option in AXP:

As can be seen in the graph, maximum profit of $4.66 ($1,631,000) for this butterfly option is achieved with shares of AXP trading at $35, a near 18% decline from current levels. However the options trader is only risking $0.34 ($119,000) to potentially make the $1.63 million return should shares of AXP trade at $35 upon July expiration. The favorable reward/risk dynamics of the butterfly option trade is one of the main reasons options traders like the structure, although commission fees (there are 3 legs to this structure) and a relatively low probability of max potential gains typically limits less advanced traders from fully embracing the structure. For more information on the butterfly option and other options trading strategies visit OptionsUniversity.com.
