Amazon And Salesforce: All Hat And No Cattle [View article]
Do out of the money bear put spreads and sometimes take premium to but deep out of the money puts which worked extremely well for GMCR, OPEN, NFLX and others I have recommending shorting. So let's say stock is selling at $62. I will sell the $65 put and buy the $70 put for let's say a premium of $1.80. I will then buy the $50 put for $1.80. My downside is just $5 a share if the stock continues to climb past $70. Upside is substantial, especially if stock gets cut in half in expiration timeframe. Hope that helps.
