Spy ETF Put Hedge Strategy Trading Tips for Mar 17 2016

Mar 17, 2016 | Profit And Income Strategies, SPY ETF Hedge Strategy (SPY)

Here are the SPY ETF put hedge trading tips before the markets open on Thursday Mar 17 2016.

SPY ETF Profits

On Wednesday March 16 one trade brought in 23% within a matter of minutes thanks to the volatility from the Fed Interest rate decision announcement. This type of profit is common around Federal Reserve meetings and in particular, announcements.

The SPY ETF Chart below shows the put trade I entered after the Fed Chair Janet Yellen’s announcement on not increasing interest rates in March. The better trade would have been to buy Spy ETF Calls prior to the announcement. I have in the past set up strangles with limited results.

I have done this SPY ETF trade often in the past, especially over the past three years with good results. Meanwhile there were two other SPY ETF Put trades that could have been entered although I did not.
