Costco's most recent trend suggests a bullish bias. One trading opportunity on Costco is a Bull Put Spread using a strike $575.00 short put and a strike $565.00 long put offers a potential 20.63% return on risk over the next 6 calendar days. Maximum profit would be generated if the Bull Put Spread were to expire worthless, which would occur if the stock were above $575.00 by expiration. The full premium credit of $1.71 would be kept by the premium seller. The risk of $8.29 would be incurred if the stock dropped below the $565.00 long put strike price.
