Buckle up, with $GOOGL trading at 287.56 pre-market, today will be a bumpy ride, and then we have $AMZN, $INTC, and $MSTR reporting after the close.

what is a put credit spread? sell one put and buy a lower one, same expiration. you collect a credit, the most you can lose is the strike width minus the credit, and in this example that is more than the credit. numbers shown are an example only. 1/6

5/6 the most you can make. The credit you collected, if the stock finishes above the higher strike. Break-even is the higher strike minus the credit: $93.50 in this example.

6/6 in one line: Put credit spread: collect a credit, and the second put caps the loss. Here the loss cap is larger than the credit.
