Technicals
From a technical standpoint, LOW has broken higher from an ascending triangle which is a bullish continuation pattern. Support for near-term dips falls at $170.50 which marks the top of the triangle. LOW is up 45% year to date and is one of only a few stocks on the IBD Top 50 list that has broken to a record high in October.

If you agree there's further upside ahead for LOW, consider this trade which relies on the stock remaining above the $172.50 level through the expiration in five weeks.
Buy To Open LOW 13NOV20 170 Puts (LOW201113P170)
Sell To Open LOW 13NOV20 172.5 Puts (LOW201113P172.5) for a credit of $1.13 (selling a vertical)
This credit is $0.02 less than the mid-point of the option spread when LOW was trading near $173. Unless the stock rallies quickly from here, you should be able to get close to this amount.
Your commission on this trade will be only $1.30 per spread. Each spread would then yield $111.70. This reduces your buying power by $250 and makes your investment $138.30 ($250 – $111.70). If LOW closes at any price above $172.50 on November 13, both options will expire worthless, and your return on the spread would be 81% ($111.70 / $138.30), or 924% annualized.

We have found that the Investor’s Business Daily Top 50 List has been a reliable source of stocks that are likely to move higher in the short run. Recent additions to the list might be particularly good choices for this strategy, and deletions might be good indicators for exiting a position that you might already have on that stock.
