The financial sector broke out of its trading range recently and has been soaring after a stellar round of earnings reports from major financial institutions like JPMorgan Chase, Wells Fargo, BlackRock and Morgan Stanley. However, markets don’t usually move in a straight line. A recent mean reversion trade I shared on Alibaba demonstrated this well when I pointed out that Chinese stocks were due for a pullback. Today, I’m looking at a potential mean reversion trade on JPMorgan (JPM) . In the 9-month daily chart of JPM, I’ve highlighted a sharp decline in the RSI (Relative Strength Index), which signals a loss of upward momentum. Additionally, we’re seeing a potential DMI (Directional Movement Index) crossover, with the DI+ (green line) on the verge of crossing below the DI- (red line). I’ve marked several previous instances of this crossover in the chart, each indicating a trend shift. DMI crossovers like this often provide reliable signals of impending trend changes. I cover many of these setups in my book Mean Reversion Trading . The trade Given the bearish sentiment developing on JPM, I’m opting for a strategy known as a “bear put spread” to potentially capitalize on a pullback. This strategy entails buying a higher strike put and selling a lower strike put, creating a net debit position. For instance, with JPM trading around $220, I’d set up the trade by purchasing a 225 strike put and simultaneously selling a 220 strike put. Here’s the trade setup: Buy 225 strike put (Nov 22 expiry) Sell 220 strike put (Nov 22 expiry) Cost: $250 (limit price 2.50c) If JPM trades at or below $220 on the expiration date, this trade could yield a 100% return on the initial risk. For instance, with 10 contracts, one could risk $2500 to potentially profit $2500. Risks to this trade: This week brings a lot of uncertainty with the upcoming elections, which could inject volatility into the markets. Additionally, the FOMC rate decision is scheduled for Thursday, and as a major market-moving event, it could cause rapid shifts in direction. -Nishant Pant Founder: https://tradingextremes.com Author: Mean Reversion Trading Youtube, Twitter: @TheMeanTrader DISCLOSURES: (Nishant currently holds a JPM 225-220 put spread expiring on 11/22.)
