Technicals
MA has been trading in an uptrend channel that originates back to a low posted in December 2017. The stock price pulled back in the past week and is near support that consists of a horizontal level at $208 as well as the 20-day moving average. Slightly below the support confluence is the lower bound of the uptrend channel. In this context, the stock appears to be well support with a clear upside bias.

If you agree there's further upside ahead for MA, consider this trade which is a bet that the stock will continue to advance over the next five weeks, or at least not decline very much.
Buy To Open MA 12OCT18 207.5 Puts (MA181012P207.5)
Sell To Open MA 12OCT18 210 Puts (MA181012P210) for a credit of $0.93 (selling a vertical)
This price was $0.02 less than the mid-point of the option spread when MA was trading near $211. Unless the stock rallies quickly from here, you should be able to get close to this amount.
Your commission on this trade will only be $2.50 per spread (the rate charged by thinkorswim for Terry’s Tips’ subscribers). Each contract would then yield $90.50 and your broker would charge a $250 maintenance fee, making your investment $159.50 ($250 – $90.50). If MA closes at any price above $210 on October 12, both options would expire worthless, and your return on the spread would be 57% (650% annualized).
