Trading at 37.33 as of publication, we can take advantage of this possible low by setting the ceiling up to the 0 level and cushion all the way down to a bit below the 2.618 to minimize the chances of a loss while maintaining potential growth through expiration in July of next year. This will make up to 14.7% (17.9% annualized) but on the downside, also allow AR room to fall a generous 48% before breaking even.
