I'm revealing urgent details on my brand-new EV battery Pre-IPO...

Electric vehicles are the hottest investment trend heading into 2021. And Tesla's inclusion in the S&P 500 is sending these stocks soaring. My clients already had a shot at 317% profits with this next generation battery stock. That's why I'm thrilled to release this urgent report: BUY ALERT: Tesla Insiders Launch a Brand-New EV Battery Stock.

Don't wait another minute...

Technicals

From a technical perspective, MSFT recently posted a bullish breakout above a horizontal resistance level at $225. This same level had capped rallies three times in the fourth quarter of 2020 and is seen as strong support in the event the stock pulls back further from here. There is also support at $231.15 which marks the late August high.

 TSM Chart January 2021

If you agree there's further upside ahead for MSFT, consider this trade which relies on the stock remaining above $230 through the expiration in five weeks.

Buy To Open MSFT 05MAR21 225 Puts (MSFT210305P225)

Sell To Open MSFT 05MAR21 230 Puts (MSFT210305P230) for a credit of $1.73 (selling a vertical)

This credit is $0.02 less than the mid-point of the option spread when MSFT was trading near $232.  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 $171.70. This reduces your buying power by $500 and makes your investment $328.30 ($500 – $171.70).  If MSFT closes at any price above $230 on March 5, both options will expire worthless, and your return on the spread would be 52% ($171.70 / $328.30), or 593% annualized.
