Dan Nathan suggested on
CNBC's Options Action
a hedging strategy in
Apple Inc.AAPL
for investors who are concerned that the stock could decline after the earnings. Nathan would sell the March 110 call for $1.35 and he would use the collected premium to buy the March 90 put for $1.35. With the trade, Nathan capped the upside at $110, which is, in his opinion, a significant resistance, because the stock broke down below that price level in August and in December. Below $90, the trade offers protection. Nathan believes that
Apple Inc.
could drop to low to mid $80s.
