Your Inaugural Weekly Income Report
Each Monday, we plan to look back at the prior week’s results across all Traders Reserve services to see what we can learn from our successes and our failures.
This week’s highlights include a diagonal call spread that netted 5K Challenge members over $1,000 and a call debit spread from the Millionaire’s Trading Club live event that returned more than 60% in less than two weeks.
Plus, we’ll look at what a recent recovery position tells us about the value of active trade management.
Markets Brings Mostly Tricks And No Treats On Halloween
Wall Street hates it when companies spend money on infrastructure projects, even when related to AI. Everyone wants the finished product without the realization that it takes time and money to get to that result. This became clearer after Microsoft (MSFT) and Meta (META) released earnings and guided lower due to the rising costs of upcoming projects. The market responded by selling shares, which in turn helped the entire market fall nearly 2%. Does that mean it’s the end of the bull market or the perfect time to get in?
What if it all works out?
We are only a few days away from U.S. history’s most contentious presentential election. Everyone in the world is watching, including the markets. Between earnings season, the election, and the upcoming Fed meeting, the markets are unable to pick a direction. Coming off a weak couple of days, the market is stuck with an inside trading week, highlighting the indecision. The next two weeks will tell us if the seasonal best couple of months are still ahead or if we’re setting up for a monumental pullback or even crash!
Millionaire’s Trading Club Winning Streak Continues
We closed another six trades from our Millionaire’s Trading Club event last week, bringing our net cash to $6,645.
This included a number of earnings plays where we capitalize on elevated volatility while keeping risk in check.
See our updated results and find out how we’re mastering volatility this earnings season – and how you can, too.
Strategies To Use For Earnings – Part 2
Earlier this week we reviewed the long straddle and the bull put spread for a way to trade during earnings season. The type of strategy you pick depends on the direction you think the underlying will move and what will happen to volatility. But what if you believe the underlying won’t move in either direction? Sometimes the stock stays pretty flat during earnings. There’s a strategy for that as well.
Strategies You Can Use For Earnings Season
I’m not sure about you but I was always told it was a waste of time to trade around earnings. No one can predict how the underlying will move – we’ve all seen stocks beat numbers and trade lower or miss estimates and trade higher. It’s one of the most volatile times to trade, but there are strategies you can use to take advantage of the extra volatility.
25 Trades in 3 Days; $5,981 in Cash Booked
We just wrapped up our Millionaire’s Trading Club event in Las Vegas, and it was a huge success! We netted nearly $6,000 in cash in just three days, with more than a dozen trades still on the books.
The event’s standout trade delivered an 80% return in less than 24 hours, with a few lucky members more than doubling their money.
Find out what we traded and how you can put the same strategy to work this earnings season.
The Next Stock Market Crisis Will Be Here Sooner Than You Think
Not long ago, everyone talked about electric vehicles taking over power grids and causing cities to crumble. It was a rallying cry for those against the likes of Tesla. Automotive manufacturers were slow to retool plants and invest in electric vehicle infrastructure and now that they are caught up, the EV movement has lost momentum. However, it’s not EVs that will bring the power grids to a grinding halt. It is, however, something else that is growing in popularity and will soon become a real problem that can’t be ignored.
Go-To Income Stock Provides CMG-Like Opportunity
CAVA Group, a Mediterranean-focused fast-casual restaurant chain, has emerged as a go-to stock for Options Income Weekly members in 2024.
For the past three and a half months, we’ve been capitalizing on the company’s rapid growth and impressive financial performance with a variety of income strategies to take advantage of volatility in shares.
Find out what we like about this rising star in fast-casual dining that’s got people saying it’s the next Chipotle Mexican Grill (CMG).
Investors See Mixed Messages Before Earnings Season
The latest bull run was halted when the Consumer Price Index rose more than expected. While that could be a sign that inflation is returning, investors were also left with weekly unemployment claims that rose to a 14-month high, which was much more than expected. There may be a logical explanation for the jobless claims, but we’ll get to that in a second. The markets are awaiting Q3 earnings, which will be the next driver of prices, but in which direction? That and more ahead.
