PLTR Put Strategy Plan:
1. DCA INTO PUTS:
Target the $74–$79 range for initiating put positions.
Use a scaling approach to average down effectively as the price rises.
2. PUT CONTRACT SELECTION:
Choose 2-3 month expiration puts (e.g., February/March 2025).
Strikes: $65 or $60 puts depending on risk appetite.
3. POSITION SIZING:
Start small and scale up with each $1 increase in stock price:
Example:
1 contract at $74
2 contracts at $75
4 contracts at $76, and so on.
This ensures a meaningful average entry without over-allocating capital too quickly.
4. TARGETS:
Short-term Target: $58.45 (first exit zone).
Long-term Target: $47 (max profit potential).
5. STOP LOSS:
Limit your loss by closing positions if PLTR breaks above $81.
Alternatively, cap your total risk at 5% of your portfolio size and avoid adding contracts above your risk tolerance.
