Stratagem Trade – CIS Course

In this course, you will learn the correct way to use an in-the-money call to replace stock. An overview of the thinking behind the strategy examines the cost reduction of the call compared to stock, the myths and incorrect uses, the risks of picking the wrong call, how the Greeks—vega and theta—affect it, and how to create a synthetic collar using a call instead of stock.

Criteria for choosing the ITM call, put hedge, and short call are detailed. Using a call can greatly reduce the cost versus stock, but which call do you choose from the many choices? You are taken logically through the process of narrowing down the choices, comparing top candidates, and then picking the best long call strike and expiration. You will then learn the criteria for selecting the put hedge and short call to complete the synthetic collar.

See the criteria come to life as they are applied step by step to a stock using the option chains, charts and graphs. A step-by-step checklist condenses the detailed concepts and criteria, which you can use when constructing your own call instead of stock collars.
