During our latest Options Conference call, me and JC riffed on a couple potential trades -- one of which I wanted to wait a bit on, since it's not a type of play I do with great frequency.
Well, on Friday, the stock had a nice little pullback nearer to recent IPO support which offers us a nice opportunity to get positioned at a bit of a discount, so I'm going to pull the trigger today.
JC and I put together this months Options Conference call and it was one of my favorites yet!
We discussed positions we closed out in Google in Biotechs, as well as some of the trades we have on that are worth an update. There are a few new ideas on our radar and we get into some of that as well so you can get a little bit of a behind the scenes look at our thought process.
The latest 2-to-100 Club Report is out with a handful of actionable names to participate in.
These aren't trades where we expect a face-ripping rally to imminently commence. But we do think there are underlying trends that can propel these names higher over the next 3-6 months.
With that in mind, I've got a trade in November options on deck to play one of my favorites from this report.
The recent pullbacks we've seen in a number of momentum names is offering us some advantageous opportunities to buy into some stocks we like at better prices.
One stock in particular is making a beautiful sound as it attracts my attention.
US Stocks have been a bit dicey since yesterday afternoon as we're seeing a lot of high beta names get chopped down. This is never fun if you've been riding trends.
But when markets get turbulent, the strongest stocks and future leaders tend to reveal themselves. And that's what I'm seeing right now in a popular name.
Strazza put out a post this weekend about scanning for strength in selloffs. Give it a read. Here's the Cliff's Notes: the recent selloff in tech has been an excellent opportunity for new leadership to reveal itself.
One of the names we like makes computer hardware and we're getting a nice little pullback today to lean in to a trade here.
In the latest RPP Report put out by All Star Charts, the team remains bullish on the continued sector rotation into energy and oil sector names.
While some of these moves are somewhat extended, there is still a lot of ground to reclaim to get back to former highs. Our bet is the big move is still coming...
The latest Under the Hood Report is out, and as always, there are a number of good trade candidates. But the one that most caught my attention is a name that typically isn't on the radar of momentum buyers. When it's threatening new all time highs, we have to consider participating.
ASC Analyst Steve Strazza recently published a bullish piece on the Gold Miners $GDX ETF. I liked the idea so much that I'm going to jump into an options trade that will capture the meat from the move if it plays out as expected.
JC and I recorded a review session where we went over select options trades that were exited last month as well as some thoughts on the current market and some lessons within.
Ok, it's only Spring Training. But baseball fans mark this week on their calendars as it signals there is light at the end of the winter tunnel.
And with regular season baseball games on the horizon, gamblers with an itch that needs to be scratched after football season ended will be chomping at the bit to get playing again.
No surprise then that the stock market -- which is forward looking -- is offering a setup in line with the coming spring.
