On CNBC's "Options Action," Bill Baruch of Blueline Capital suggested investors should consider a risk reversal options strategy in SPDR S&P Oil & Gas Explore & Prod. XOP.

Baruch thinks the stock is going to reach a new low and he wants to sell the January $24/$22 call spread for 30 cents.

He will use the premium to finance the purchase of the January $19/$17 put spread. The trade is going to make money if the stock drops below $19. It can reach its maximal profit of $2 if the stock drops to $17 or lower.
