Scott Bauer’s Short-Term Spread on CRM

Salesforce (CRM) just got a double upgrade and Scott Bauer sees a level worth trading around. He joined Schwab Network to walk through the short-term call spread he is buying and explain why he thinks the market is in a wait-and-see mode until earnings season kicks off.

Scott covers:

  • The critical price level on CRM that determines whether his trade works
  • His exact call spread strikes and what he’s paying for next week’s expiration
  • What low volume tells him about market sentiment
  • What he needs to see from bank earnings to get the market back in gear
