You could try a Butterfly Sell 2 weekly options with a strike at your target for SPY. (body) Buy 1 weekly option a couple of strikes above....
It's all about how far apart the strikes are. Try some Iron Condors with a $5.00 spread and $2.00 premium - maximum loss is only $3.00. Checkout...
Reality: Most option traders do not have the funds to buy/sell the stock that their option positions cover. It's called leverage. Solution: Exit...
