Opening (IRA): EWZ June/November 25/33 Long Call Diagonal
... for a 6.79/contract debit.
Comments: Taking a directional shot on weakness, with some opportunity to reduce cost basis in the setup via roll of the short call if I don't get the move immediately.
Here, buying the 90 delta in the back month, selling the at-the-money in the front one, resulting in a 31.79 break even relative to the 32.58 where it's trading at the moment.
Paying 6.79 for an 8-wide, with max profit being the difference between the width of the diagonal (8.00) and what I paid (6.79) or 1.21 ($121), which would be a 17.8% return on capital as a function of buying power effect, assuming price for the entire shebang converges on 8.00.
