Coach Inc (COH) is a marketer of accessories for men and women. They provide consumers with a range of accessories including leather goods, handbags, watches and fragrances. The stock is currently trading around $55.40 in a 52 week range of $45.87-$62.26. The stock has been relatively weak this year, selling off around 0.25% year to date in a broader market that is much higher. COH is even weaker over the past 12 months down nearly 11%. Recent bearish order flows in the options market also suggests that sentiment on COH is for more downside. Current open interest put/call ratios are also very bearish at 1.58. Still trading in neutral to bearish territory on the Ichimoku Cloud we believe that COH sets up well at this level for a swing trade.

We define unusual option activity as large block trades that represent a large percentage of daily option volume. The block trade is considered “unusual” if the option volume is above the average daily volume over the past 22 days. At KeeneOnTheMarket.com we scan and analyze order flow from all of the major options exchanges in order to identify any unusual option activity.

Analyzing unusual order flow gives traders a window into what the positions that large institutional players have. The majority of unusual option activity can be traced back to hedge funds, mutual funds, and other large institutions. Knowing where these institutions are placing their bets can be hugely advantageous for any trader. These institutions have informational and technological advantages that the average trader doesn’t have, and the amount of time and analysis that goes into every one of their trades is substantial. We offer this service through our 7 hour daily LIVE trading room http://bit.ly/135QWt8 or through Premium Twitter feed with all entries, exits, and unusual options activity tweeted all day long: http://bit.ly/11f0L9u .

Order flow can however at times be deceiving. One might logically think that a large block buyer of calls is bullish on the underlying. This is not always the case. Remember that a large number of participants in the equity options market are hedgers. Long calls are a hedge against short stock, and long puts are a hedge against long stock. With this in mind we have developed a 7 step trading plan that helps filter out unusual option activity that will not provide actionable trade setups. It is by using this plan that we are able to identify the most significant unusual options activity trades every day.

In Q2 this year, the company’s average production was 13,107 BPOD, 78 percent of which was crude oil.  Resolute’s production assets are based in North America, so there is little risk from exposure to  unrest in the Middle East or other disruptions of a geo-political nature.  Included in these assets are operations in North Dakota’s Baaken reserve.

Yesterday, we saw Paper sell 2,500 REN Dec 10 Puts for $1.80 (27 times unusual volume).  By implementing a covered call strategy, or a ‘buy-write,’ a trader is synthetically short a put.  

To set up this covered call strategy a trader is going to buy 100 shares of stock at $8.30 for every REN Dec 10 Call sold at $0.20. This trade is profitable anywhere above $8.10 and if the stock closes above $10.00 on expiration this trade will net an annualized return of 97.5%.

Currently the options market is implying a move of $8.80 by September expiration. This would give us an upside target around $109.00 by September expiry.

Trade:
Buying the ULTA Sep 105-110 Call Spread for $1.60
Risk: $160 per 1 lot
Reward: $340 per 1 lot
Breakeven: $106.60
