If you agree there's further upside ahead for Global Payments, consider this trade which is a bet that the stock will continue to advance, or at least not decline very much over the next six weeks.
Buy To Open GPN 15SEP17 90 Puts (GPN170915P90)
Sell To Open GPN 15SEP17 95 Puts (GPN170915P95) for a credit of $1.00 (selling a vertical)
This price was $0.02 less than the mid-point of the option spread when GPN was trading near $98. Unless the stock rallies quickly from here, you should be able to get close to this amount.
If you use our favorite broker for this trade, tastyworks, your commission on this trade will only be $1 per opening contract ($2 per spread) (and there is no commission on closing trades, only the $.10 clearing fee). Each contract would then yield $98 and your broker would charge a $500 maintenance fee, making your investment $402 ($500 – $98). If GPN closes at any price above $95 on September 15, 2017, both options would expire worthless, and your return on the spread would be 24% (211% annualized).
