Traders wary of going back to all-in on stocks weigh up options

In a bullish risk reversal, investors buy a call and sell a put.

A call spread entails trading just calls.

Ratio spreads – when one side of the trade involves more contracts than the other – are even cheaper, but they cut the reward further and risk a loss if prices spike.

Two to three-week call options could be a safe way to get some exposure to a rebound.
