Buying VRTX call contracts.
Vertex Pharma (VRTX) is a profitable biotech company that develops smll molecule drugs for serious diseases.
Shares have traded sharply higher over the last few months, but the stock is still a relatively attractive value compared to expected profits.
A recent pullback gives us a chance to buy calls close to the key 50-day average support line.
Buying call contracts at this level gives us a chance to profit if VRTX moves back towards its recent highs. And buying in-the-money call contracts helps manage risk as these calls will retain some value even if shares pull back.
