Play the Pullback in SPY

BY LICIA LESLIE 

January 05, 2024

Hi Shoppers,

 

I have $470 as a support, now new resistance, in SPDR S&P 500 ETF (Ticker: SPY) which has definitively closed below yesterday:

SPY looks clear to trade down to $459.50.

 

Shopping for puts:

I like the Jan19 467/457 put spread for around $2.50.

 

Use a close above that $470 level for your stop loss.

 

Trade Review

 

You had to be quick to eke out a small win in Walmart (Ticker: WMT) and yesterday it has closed below the 50 day moving average, you should be out of your calls.

 

Thanks for Reading … See You Next Tuesday,

Licia Leslie
