We love Christmas time as it is our favorite holiday of the year. It is nice to receive cards, letters, and gifts but it is more about caring. Our subscribers mean a lot to us and every year we offer a huge discount on yearly memberships because we want you to learn how the market works and we want you to find your own trades. More importantly, we want you to make money. There is no bigger thrill once you learn to trade options and find your own trade that returns you 500% in a matter of days or hours.
We are a high risk/ high reward option investment Daily newsletter and we also offer “safer” option and stock trades through our Weekly Wrap newsletter. The Daily newsletter targets triple-digit returns for every trade and offers 2-3 trades a week, depending on market conditions. We have nearly 200 trades on the books this year and our Track Record is 122-54 for nearly a 70% win rate. We have recommended over 30 triple-digit winners with gains up to 400%-500% and most trade recommendations range from 50%-80% returns.
For our Weekly Wrap, we are 26-0 on trade recommendations. We were 16-0 in 2011 and we are 42-0 since inception. Overall for 2012, our Track Record is 147-54 which is a 73% success rate. This is by far, one of the best, if not the best, option trading services out there. We have not had a losing year since we started the newsletter in 2008.
The cost for a 1-year membership is $924 for the Daily. This is $77/ month and much less than the $97 or $129 monthly memberships. The Weekly Wrap is also $924 for a 1-year deal.
We will be offering them BOTH for $924. This is a 50% savings.
We also offer an option trading course, How to Trade Options on Momentum Stocks, that is valued at $895. The course comes with bi-monthly videos and currently has dozens of videos on trade setups, how to find trades, and how to read charts. The course is also shipped to you at no charge and you can read more here.
We are also doing two more special incentives. One is we are offering an extra 20% discount through this weekend only that will lower the price to $740/ or around $60 a month for both publications.
We do this because we will be printing the new, updated option trading manual with more charts and tips, and we need to know how many we need to print and to keep our costs (and yours) as low as possible. After this weekend, there will not be a 20% discount but you can still get both the Daily and Weekly Wrap for $924.
The iPad offer is this. If you signup this weekend for the 1-year deal, you will be eligible to enter an educated guess on where the Dow will be on the last trading day of the year at the close on December 31, 2012.
We will take all entries by Sunday night by midnight (EST) and we will confirm them with each subscriber. The one who comes the closest on the Dow, over or under, will win a brand new iPad.
Your prediction must list the Dow’s closing price with two decimal points. In other words, if you believe the Dow will end at 13,600 – you will need to use 13,600.00.
The coupon code for the 20% discount and the special deal will end Sunday night. You will need to click on the 1-year Daily subscription link and enter the code to get the discount. You will need to email our support team no later than 11:59pm (EST), Sunday, December 9, 2012. We will list the high and low predictions on Tuesday morning.
You can also call us if you have questions.
The special offer will run through December but in order to get the EXTRA 20% discount and the chance to win a beautiful, brand spanking new iPad, you must signup this weekend!
We cannot break these rules so please do not write and ask us on Monday if it is too late to get in. It would not be fair to other subscribers.
The next video for our option course will be out soon and we will be covering a host of topics so make sure you get on board. This is by far, the best deal we offer and it only comes along once a year.
Here is the coupon and please be sure to click the 1-year Daily membership.

Netflix (NFLX) Pushes $200
Thursday, March 14th, 2013
9:00am (EST)
The bulls got back on track Wednesday as they rode the blue-chips’ 9-session win streak to regain some momentum following another choppy session. With yesterday’s pops, all of the major indexes are in the green for the week but we expect volatility to pick up starting with today’s session. The bank stress tests after the close and tomorrow’s quadruple expiration on options could cause a huge move past resistance, or a test to support that served as prior resistance.
The Dow added a nickel to close at 14,455 while the S&P 500 gained 2 points to finish at 1,554. The Nasdaq kicked a field goal to end at 3,245 and the Russell 2000 matched it by the close to settle at 943.90. Meanwhile, the S&P Volatility Index ($VIX, 11.83, down 0.44) fell nearly 4% and is back near 52-week lows.
We wanted to spend some time talking about “cheap” options this morning and why they can be worth a look during option expiration week. We consider options under $1 “cheap” because you can do a 10 contract trade on a 20 cent option for $200 that can make some incredible returns.
Take for instance, Netflix (NFLX, $192.36, up $10.25) which advanced 5% and kissed $195 yesterday. We are still a little upset we didn’t recommend call options before the big move back in late January from $97 to $150 after the company beat earnings expectations because we did our homework and knew they would. Shares continued higher into the first week of February and reached $188 before they faded a little. We told ourselves then shares would eventually make it to $200 but we didn’t believe there would be an option trade because the premiums have been juiced.
A subscriber had asked about Netflix over the weekend and we did look at the chart but we didn’t look at the options. We should have listed some on our Watch List but on Monday, shares were down $5 and had fallen below $180 at one point. With resistance at $190, we didn’t think shares would have the mustard to push $200 this week and we figured the March call options were jacked anyway. Wrong.
Granted, shares of Netflix surged on the news of its deal with Facebook (FB, $27.08, down $0.75) but we had no idea a sweet headline like this was coming. In any event, the Netflix March 195 calls (NFLX130316C00200000, $0.75, up $0.58) closed at 17 CENTS on Tuesday and opened at 51 cents on Wednesday. They traded to a high of $1.83.
We watched the move all day but day trading these options was still risky and we didn’t want to get in at the top. Shares traded above $194 for over an hour and started to fade off their highs late in the day which was the clue to take profits.
Of course, all of this is hindsight but there are ways to use Weekly options to speculate and why we are playing cheap options right now. We like to play more expensive options when there is a clearer trend in place and for now we are continuing to play alongside the bulls.
There are some stocks that trade WEEKLY options but the timing has to be right when you trade these types of high risk/ high reward trades. Directional trading is already risky enough and from time-time we dabble in WEEKLY options but remember they are the riskiest of the bunch.
Futures are showing a higher open this morning and look like this: Dow (+19); S&P 500 (+3); Nasdaq 100 (+7).
