The bulls came into today’s session with a comfortable lead for the week following Monday’s pullback and have used their momentum to push the major indexes past resistance.
Volume has been light, all week for that matter, and is only running at 40% of normal trading. Light volume can be good or bad but the direction has been upward and Europe seems to be on the back burner for the time being. Economic news continues to provide hope the economy may be improving and we mentioned these two events could play a big role in the market going higher. So far, we have been right on that call.
Today’s highlights include New Home Sales which increased 1.6% in November and matched expectations. Durable goods orders for the month of November jumped 3.8% versus expectations for an increase of 2.2%. The core reading, which excludes transportation items, was up 0.3%. Personal income was up 0.1% which missed forecasts for an increase of 0.2%, and Personal Spending rose 0.1% as well, versus expectations for an increase of 0.3%.
As we type this up, the Dow is advancing 88 points to 12,258 while the S&P 500 is higher by 8 points to 1,262. The Nasdaq is higher by 14 points to 2,614.
Next week is the last hurrah for 2011 and we plan to be active but we wanted to go over our numbers real quick because we are excited about 2012 and we want you to be a part of it.
Our 2011 Portfolio will end the year with over $18,000 in profits. This means if you started the year with us with a $10,000 account, we made you a 180% return on your investment. If you started with a $20,000 account, the returns were 90%. If you started with a $5,000 account your return was 360%.
Of course, you return will depend on when you start with us and if you take all of our trades. Many of you have thanked us over the last few months, especially after the hot streak from mid-August until November, and now we want to thank you.
Every year we offer a special deal to our one-year membership and we try to stress that trading is for the long haul. Choppy and mixed markets are hard to trade but as you have seen lately, TRENDING markets are the time where you can make an incredible amount of money.
There were a lot of option newsletters that struggled this year to give you good advice because our new subscribers have told us. Hedge funds got walloped and Mutual Fund managers are at a loss for words to explain why they couldn’t give their clients a double-digit return. Not us.
We are proud of our 2011 Track Record for the Daily (65% winners) and we are tremendously happy to say the first year of the Weekly Wrap publication was a hands down success (16-0!). To show our appreciation for your support we would like to offer you a special deal for the holidays.
For a limited time, we will be offering a 1-year subscription to our Daily newsletter for $699. The publication is normally priced at $924 which is already a steep discount to our $129 a month rate. We will also be including our trading manual, How to Trade Options on Momentum Stocks as a bonus package. This is an $899 value and shipping is on the house.
Now, the next part is important.
The trading manual also comes with ongoing videos and our next video will be out on Monday night. We want to show you exactly why the market could be headed for an explosive move in 2012. The charts we will cover will clearly show you what could be coming and we will show you how to play a market breakout. We also show you why if there is more trouble ahead, we could see a massive selloff. The video will also cover a more in-depth look at our current trades and will be available to all trading course members Monday night.
We will also be including a 3-month membership to our Weekly Wrap if you hit us up on this deal. This publication is for the short to medium-term trader and aims to provide double-digit monthly income. Our Daily newsletter strides for 100% gains on every trade that usually plays out in 3 weeks or less but the Weekly focuses on buying stocks and selling calls against your position. We like monthly dividends on strong stocks and by selling options it kind of works that way as it reduces our cost basis.
Folks, if you really want to learn how to trade the market full-time and how to understand the market’s moves than there is no better times to join us. This deal will only run until the end of 2011 because we want you on board when 2012 kicks off. The total cost for the 1-year upgrade averages to just over $58 a month for the entire package so you can see the incredible savings we are offering you.
Current subscribers, please feel free to upgrade. If you recently purchased a 1-year membership (since October), email us and we will hook-up up with the add-ons if you did not get a trading manual.
1-year membership – $699 – use coupon code 60EDA4E018 – includes trading course (an $899 value) and shipping. A 3-month membership to the Weekly Wrap will also be included in your membership.
On that note, we will be heading out for the holidays after the bell to enjoy time with our friends and family. We always look forward to wishing everyone a Merry Christmas because it’s our favorite time of the year.
We have updated our Members Area to include today’s 2 new trades. We also have one trade that is up over 80% and we want to take half profits before the weekend.
We will be back Monday night with the Weekly Wrap and Tuesday morning at 9am sharp with the next issue of the Daily. Until then, have great 3-day Christmas weekend everybody!

The market continued its recent slide as the bears had their best bull feast in nearly 80 years as Wall Street fell 5% last week. The recent selling pressure became much more serious as all of the indexes fell below their 50-day moving averages (MA) with the bears stretching their winning streak to seven-straight sessions.
The headline news read like a Vegas betting parlor as a number of European countries face further risks of defaulting. Germany was the latest country which showed a chink in the armor after trying to raise $6 billion euro but was only able to raise a little over half of it. Spain also went to the well and was successful in its bond auction but the yields came at a hefty price. Italy faces a huge crisis in 2012 if they can’t raise more dough, and they are trying, but it’s costing them an arm-and-leg.
The news here at home continues to come in better-than-expected and this week will be big with a number of month-end reports due out. As far as the charts, they have been stretched which often happens when headline news trumps the technical picture. The bears have clearly had the advantage and at some point there will be a rebound but until Europe can figure out its mess, the market will be held hostage.
The Dow slipped 26 points, or 0.2%, to finish at 11,232 on Friday’s shortened session. We went into the week looking for 11,600 to hold but that level was taken out on Monday. Our next downside targets were 11,400 and then 11,200, which held, but there is risk down to 10,800 this week if current levels don’t hold. If the bulls can get past 11,400 (black line, purple circles) then they could make a run back towards 11,600 and then 12,000 but the news has got to be awfully good. For the week, the Dow dropped 564 points, or 4.8%, and is now down 346 points, or 3% YTD…

Before the jobs data came out, futures were pointing towards a pretty steep drop for the market at the open as the major indexes were looking at a 0.5% decline. However, futures improved despite an uninspiring Initial Claims number which came in at 414,000. This was below the forecast for 420,000 claims and lower by 16,000 from the prior week but a print under 400,000 would have been nice for the bulls.
Elsewhere, Housing starts for May came in at an annualized rate of 560,000, which was greater than the 540,000 units that had been expected. Building permits improved to 612,000 versus forecasts for a drop to 548,000.
The market opened higher on these positive developments but ran into some selling pressure shortly after the open when the Philadelphia Fed Survey came out. The survey came in negative (-7.7) for June when expectations were for an improvement to 7.0 from 3.9 in the prior month. The major indexes immediately fell into negative territory.
In any event, the bulls managed to bounce back as they have pushed the market to session highs as we head to press.
The Dow is up 82 points to 11,979 while the S&P 500 is higher by 16 points to 1,272. The Nasdaq is showing a 7 point pop and is at 2,638.
We have added a few more possible plays to our Watch List as we get ready for our next “batch” of option trades. We are winding down old positions now as we have recommended taking half profits on a number of trades which are still playing out and are doing extremely well.
There is no need to rush our trades because we are getting some beautiful setups while we wait. However, there is ONE trade we are releasing right now that we like. If we are right, this put option trade could return up to 300%. No joke. It is a high risk/ high reward trade but our gut is growling and we are bearish on the stock. The options are at $1.25 and we think they are going to $5.

Market Breaks Resistance
Friday, December 23rd, 2011
1:15pm (EST)
The bulls came into today’s session with a comfortable lead for the week following Monday’s pullback and have used their momentum to push the major indexes past resistance.
Volume has been light, all week for that matter, and is only running at 40% of normal trading. Light volume can be good or bad but the direction has been upward and Europe seems to be on the back burner for the time being. Economic news continues to provide hope the economy may be improving and we mentioned these two events could play a big role in the market going higher. So far, we have been right on that call.
Today’s highlights include New Home Sales which increased 1.6% in November and matched expectations. Durable goods orders for the month of November jumped 3.8% versus expectations for an increase of 2.2%. The core reading, which excludes transportation items, was up 0.3%. Personal income was up 0.1% which missed forecasts for an increase of 0.2%, and Personal Spending rose 0.1% as well, versus expectations for an increase of 0.3%.
As we type this up, the Dow is advancing 88 points to 12,258 while the S&P 500 is higher by 8 points to 1,262. The Nasdaq is higher by 14 points to 2,614.
