    JPM sold to open 40,000 calls (5880) and purchased 40,000 (5290/4460 put spread)

    In finance, a "JPM collar" or "J.P. Morgan collar" refers to a specific options strategy, or a hedge wrapper, used by JPMorgan Chase & Co. to hedge a long equity portfolio, involving buying a put option and selling a call option with the same expiration date, effectively limiting downside risk while also capping potential upside.  

    Each quarter this hedge fund rolls to a news options collar trade, and the resulting hedging flows can often impact the market. To enter the collar, the fund sells a 3-5% out of the money call, and use those proceeds to buy a 3-5% out of the money put spread.
