Trade Alert – (UBER) August 20, 2025 – BUY

When John identifies a strategic exit point, he will send you an alert with specific trade information as to what security to sell, when to sell it, and at what price. Most often, it will be to TAKE PROFITS, but, on rare occasions, it will be to exercise a STOP LOSS at a predetermined price to adhere to strict risk management discipline.

I am shorting shares of ride-sharing platform UBER (UBER) here.

The consumer is struggling, and I don’t believe Uber will resurge to all-time highs in the short term.

This also gives us downside protection against our other positions.

Prices are volatile this morning as shares whipsaw.

Don’t pay more than $4.15.

Here are the specific trades you need to execute this position:

Buy to Open 25 September 2025 (UBER) $103 puts at…………..$11.40

Sell to short 25 September 2025 (UBER) $98 puts at……………..$7.40

Net Cost:……………………..…….………..…………………………………..$4.00

Potential Profit: $5 – $4.00 = $1.00

(25 X 100 X $1.00) = $2,500 or 25.00% in 30 days

 

 

 

 

If you are uncertain about how to execute a bear put options spread, please watch my training video by clicking here.

The best execution can be had by placing your bid for the entire spread in the middle market and waiting for the market to come to you. The difference between the bid and the offer on these deep-in-the-money spread trades can be enormous.

Don’t execute the legs individually or you will end up losing much of your profit. Spread pricing can be very volatile on expiration months farther out.

Keep in mind that these are ballpark prices at best. After the alerts go out, prices can be all over the map.
