Subject: RE: any hedging cattle


The argument of "i dont want to give up that extra dollar" is what kills alot of people hedging. Because they watch the top come, then they watch the top go, and then hope for a retracement to the top. If you are looking to do another 40-50% in Futures/Options you should be hedging into the climb. Do 25% here, 15% on another dollar, and 10% if it breaks that. but also have it set where if it falls back you get that other 20-25% done. Buying Puts, and Selling calls is working well at these levels. Oct you can buy a 96 put and sell a 100 call for a cost of 1.90-2.15. Or widen it out or tighten it up depending on what you want to spend, and leave open for a window.
