1722% in
Returns in 24 Days
In reviewing
our June 21 and July 7 calls, 14 out of 20 were winners for over 17.22% in
gains! This week, we'll take a look at those calls - and look at the week
ahead.
First, let me
say I hate to come off like I am overstating returns, so when I ran through the
performance of the calls from these two articles, I must say I was hesitant to
even add up the gains or do anything like that.
But at the end
of the day, it is what it is. Both articles resulted in 70% winners!
That's 7 out of 10 trades giving you from 25 to 300% in gains. This is
about as good as it gets. The July 7 recomendations produced 765% in gains
in 13 days. The June 21 recommendations produced 957% in 24 days.
That's where we get our 1722% cumulative gains in 24 days.
Point is, our
system works. And it's simple. And we do the work for you. All
we do is utilize market timing and some very powerful software to come up with
our top 10 picks. All you have to do is decide which of our picks are
for you.
And yes, there
were some losers. But these are not hyper aggresive options
plays. The losers are not 100% losers. They're flat trades or
we lose time value and periodically there's a 50% drop in a
position that goes against us. But if you get out in a reasonable
period of time (i.e. when you sell your winners) - you won't expose
yourself to too much time decay. And the winners far exceed the
losers. Especially at a 70% win rate!

SOS Timing
Indicator
Deciding when
to trade is the most difficult decision in trading. We take a weekly
look, but sometimes, most times, the markets reversals do not line up with the
weekend. But making weekly calls on the market reduces your exposure
to market timing. Combine that with a basic market timing tool like we
have above (ok, and my 10 years worth of experience as market timer) with
powerful software that finds the the best options to be buying today, and you
have a great tool for profits - as I believe our articles have been
showing...
Based on our
indicators being in divergence and the fact that we are already positioning in
some PUTS, we will await a more clear signal before making
recommendations. This may come intra week, so stay tuned.
Stock
Options Speculator uses
the above indicator in the establishing of various options trades and
strategies. The indicator has two
frames. The top frame shows the
Nasdaq Composite and the Nasdaq Advances and Declines. The lower frame shows volatility
(candles), the equity put call ratio (red line) and the Trading Index (blue
line). The height of the indicators
determines if call or put buying strategies are recommended.
Options Trading
Ideas
There are no
recommendations this week.
Based
on the SOS Timing Indicator or other special market conditions, the above 10
trades are recommended for consideration in your trading plan.

Closing
Bell
It has been a
good June and July. We are starting to position for a pull back but
before we take that second round of positions, we want to make sure the
market aligns a little better.

Each week, we look at the market, our indicators, and pick a direction. Here are our most recent weekly calls:
Based on this chart, each week we issue our Top Ten Stock Options Plays (calls or puts or spreads) to take advantage of our call on the market. We give you the trade instructions, as well as detailed risk graphs for you to utilize in your trading.
Obviously, some trades will be winners, and some will be losers – but over time, if you follow this strategy, you will find that you’ll be on the right side of the market more often than not, and that could translate into huge profits, depending on your ability to participate in the trades.

Heres a taste of the opportunities we present on a weekly basis.
As you know, each week we take a look at our SOS timing indicator and give you our top 10 recommenations for the week - based on our call for the market. These can be straight out call and put options or they can be spreads - where if youre aggressive, you can play the top of the spread straight out.
Heres our indicator for this week:

Again, not all our calls will be profitable, but over time with a consistent strategy, the profitable ones will outweigh the unprofitable ones. Heres a look at some of our recommendations from the bottom signal and the calls from our last signal.














Thats it for this update. Well do more updating on our calls on a monthly basis as trades are made and profits realized.
See you when the markets open on Monday.
