Drug-Maker Reaching New Highs

Drug-Maker Reaching New Highs

Dear Reader,


Yesterday, we looked at a Daily Price Chart of Bandwidth, Inc. noting that the stock's 12/26 Day MACD is trading above the 9-Day EMA.


For today's Trade of the Day we will be looking at a Daily Price chart for Kura Oncology, Inc. stock symbol: KURA.


Before breaking down KURA's daily price chart let's first review which products and services are offered by the company.


Kura Oncology, Inc., a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company, develops medicines for the treatment of cancer. Its pipeline consists of small molecule product candidates that target cancer. The company's lead product candidate is Tipifarnib, an orally bioavailable inhibitor of farnesyl transferase that is in Phase II clinical trials.


Now, let's begin to break down the Daily Price chart for KURA. Below is a Daily Price Chart with the price line displayed by an OHLC bar.


The Daily Price chart above shows that KURA stock has been hitting new 52-Week Highs regularly since late May.


Simply put, a stock does not just continually hit a series of new 52-Week Highs unless it is in a very strong bullish trend.


The Hughes Optioneering team looks for stocks that are making a series of 52-Week Highs as this is a good indicator that the stock is in a powerful uptrend.

You see, after a stock makes a series of two or more 52-Week Highs, the stock typically continues its price uptrend and is a good candidate for a covered call.


Our initial price target for KURA stock is 38.25 per share.


Profit if KURA Is Down 10%

Now, since KURA has recently been making a series of 52-Week Highs and will likely rally from here, let's use the Optioneering calculator to look at the potential returns for a KURA covered call trade. Covered calls are also known as buy writes.


The Buy Write Calculator will calculate the profit/loss potential for a covered call trade based on the price change of the underlying stock/ETF at option expiration in this example from a 10% increase to a 10% decrease in KURA stock at option expiration.


The goal of this example is to demonstrate the 'built in' profit potential for covered calls and the ability of covered calls to profit if the underlying stock is up, down or flat at option expiration. Out of fairness to our paid option service subscribers we don't list the option strike price used in the profit/loss calculation.


The prices and returns represented below were calculated based on the current stock and option pricing for KURA on 9/30/2020 before commissions.

Built in Profit Potential

For this covered call, the calculator analysis below reveals the cost or the breakeven price is $2,259 (circled). The maximum risk for a covered call is the cost of the covered call.


The analysis reveals that if KURA is flat at 30.64 or up at all at expiration the covered call will realize a $741.00 profit and a 32.8% return (circled).


If KURA decreases 5.0% at option expiration, the covered call will realize a $651.80 profit and a 28.9% return.


And if KURA decreases 10% at option expiration, the covered call will realize a $498.60 profit and a 22.1% return.


Due to option pricing characteristics, this covered call has a 'built in' 32.8% profit potential when the trade was initiated.


Covered call trades can result in a higher percentage of winning trades compared to a directional stock trade if you can profit when the underlying stock/ETF is up, down or flat.


A higher percentage of winning trades can give you the discipline needed to become a successful trader.


The Optioneering Team is here to help you identify winning trades just like this one.

Hypothetical performance results have many inherent limitations, some of which are described below.

The cost basis for some of the options in a portfolio may be reduced by rolling over profits at option expiration which is one of the Hughes Optioneering Trade Management Rules. Some income figures presented represent the total amount of option premium collected during the referenced period. Actual profits were less. Open trade profit results may have increased or decreased when the trades were closed out. Chuck Hughes' experiences are not typical.
