Big - OT OXY trade

Message 13024047

since then I wrote a few more puts and used the money to buy 17.5 calls. My position in OXY now:

Short 40 Jan OXY put strike 25
Long 100 Jan OXY call strike 20
Long 55 Jan OXY call strike 17.5

The puts paid for the calls. Worst case scenario I will own 4000 shares of OXY come Jan at $25. If OXY closes at $30+, which I expect, I make $168,750+. It would be a nice down payment on my retirement home in Florida. I have done this with a few stocks, RIG, KMG, GBLX.
