Trade Idea: Long DVN (Devon Energy Corp)


DVN could be breaking out here and on its way to $100.  There are a lot of option trades you could put on.  Let me suggest a couple:

Conservative Idea: The buy write (long stock and short the 95 or 100 call. There is a .16 divided on 3/11/11 (according to LiveVolPro) Or you can do the the Synthetic buy write by shorting a put.

More Aggressive: Bull vertical risk reversal: Long the April 95/100 for 1.42ish and sell the April 85 put for 1.60ish.  Gets you long about 5% lower and gives you a shot for $5 if DVN does rip to $100
