HAL is a stock that recently dropped 25% in the space of a month. It got pretty oversold and put in a short-term bottom almost exactly where it bottomed back in December.
I think there’s a good chance it will head up to test resistance around $27 in the next two weeks. I can’t see it getting much above that level.
In this scenario I like using a broken wing butterfly to create a profit zone around the area where I think the stock will be at expiry.
If HAL continues to drop lower, I have no risk on the downside.
Ideally I want the stock to be around $27 towards expiration. If it gets there two quickly, the trade will be under pressure.
Trade safe!
