Best Reverse Jade Lizard option strategy in TCS

Hello friends, I hope you are doing well. I’m trying to share one option strategy every week. Today I’m sharing the Reverse Jade Lizard option strategy in TCS.

In this post, I’m sharing Thethe Reverse Jade Lizard Option strategy. How can we deploy this? and what should be our adjustments in this Option strategy?

What is the Reverse Jade Lizard Option Strategy?

This Reverse Jade Lizard option strategy has three legs. We are selling a deep OTM Call + Put and hedging our downside risk with one bought Put. All legs have an equal lot size. This strategy is the Reverse Jade Lizard Strategy. Look at the payoff chart:

This strategy is a credit strategy and is always good when we are expecting a range-bound activity in the script. As you can see it has an Unlimited risk on the upside, so this strategy is only suitable for Advanced option traders who can manage it properly.

Let us take an example of TCS to understand the step-by-step process I’m following to initiate this Reverse Jade Lizard option strategy.

Steps to follow for the Reverse Jade Lizard option strategy

TCS Chart today

The first step to initiate the Reverse Jade Lizard option strategy is to find a stock that is traded in a range only. You can see after making a high of 3981.75, TCS is trading in a range of 3981 – 3420. So TCS can be a good script based on the first parameter.

Second step: Because this is a net Credit strategy, a stock with a high IV is preferable. TCS IVP (Implied Volatility percentile) is 92. This means 92% of time TCS IV was trading below the current IV in the last year (52 Weeks). So a high probability that Its IV will drop in the coming sessions will positively impact our credit spread.

Now look at Open interest data, Highest OI stands at 3600 PE and 3800 CE followed by 3700 PE & 3900 CE. So based on the OI data: 3700 & 3600 can be the support levels whereas 3800 & 3900 are acting as the resistance levels. So we can use these levels as our range. The almost same range we are getting on the charts. So it’s our double confirmation that this range is valid based on current option chain data.

Based on the range we find in TCS, We are selling 3700 PE & 4000 CE and to manage downside risk we are buying 3600 PE. Now you can see that we don’t have any downside risk. But we have unlimited risk on Upside.

So to manage that risk you have to follow some adjustments if you find that TCS is approaching toward your sold 4000 Call option.

Possible adjustments

Once you find that the script is approaching your sold call strike means 4000, you can buy 4040 CE to lock your unlimited upside loss. Now when you have to do this adjustment? only if you find TCS above 3920.
