Income Masters Trade Alert: SPX

Our most recent S&P 500 (SPX) hedges — the SPX May Monthly (5/21) 3650 Put and the SPX May Monthly (5/21) 3650/3600 Put Spread — are on track to expire worthless, so I am recommending new defensive positions today.

The new hedges are two weeks out as opposed to June monthly positions. Given current market volatility, this may create a better opportunity for us to roll and reduce our cost basis sometime in the next two weeks.

We will continue to track these as ongoing positions, but you can initiate one of these hedges even if you were not in a previous one.

Be aware that these are meant to be purely defensive positions. The goal is for them to expire worthless. They will only result in a profit if the market sells off sharply.

If you are new to this kind of hedging, please check out my Coaching Session on Hedging Your Portfolio before making the trade.
