In the trader tip video below, Brian is having a look at ABT (Abbott Laboratories) charts. ABT has been going through a period of consolidation since about the end of June. More recently, in the last several days, ABT has been looking a little more bullish, turning to the upside.
One thing we could do here is to buy shares of the stock if you want to leverage a position. We can also buy an end-the-money call and give a few weeks to let these positions work. The last alternative would be doing a bullish put vertical credit spread.
