There are two daily gaps on the IBM chart.

GAPS usually get filled.

IBM is showing negative divergence with RSI(2).

Buying the 100 puts 2 - 3 months out looks like it could make your year.

Wait for a SHORT SIGNAL before buying the puts.

Do NOT jump the gun.

IBM monthly range is around $10.

TRADE WHAT YOU SEE.

Hi Avery

INTC has almost the same pattern and a negative divergence in RSI(2) too. Another neg. divergence in MACD (2,3,1). Nice gap @ 16.80 to close :-)

As a safer strategy I would use a $18 put 2 or 3 months away. It needs a short signal as well as in IBM.

INTC closed on 7/30/09 at 19.25. Never went any lower than 18.41 since. Currently at 19.11.

I'm hoping that SHORT SIGNAL never came.

buy 10 IBM Jan 09 100 put @ .90, max profit 99,100 if it goes to 0, max loss = cost of trade 900 + com.

buy 10 INTC Jan 09 17.5 put @ .66, max profit 16,480 if it goes to 0, max loss = cost of trade 660 + com

Should be interesting.
