[Options Premium] Playing for the Turn

July 20, 2020

I don't prefer getting long stocks that aren't breaking through to some kind of major new high or an all-time high. But every so often the stars align to play for the end of a major downtrend with some clearly defined levels of support to lean against.

We're finding that right now in the recently maligned Marijuana stocks space.

July 13, 2020

The fine gentlemen at All Star Charts have released with latest Quarterly Playbook with themes to be aware of for the next three months, as well as trade ideas within sectors and individual stocks that are setting up. Head over here for a deep dive and great read.

One idea that stood out to me is an e-commerce company focused on pet supplies and medications. No.... not pets.com. LOL

[Options Premium] Keeping it Close to Home

June 29, 2020

Well, since we're all stuck at home for the foreseeable future, we might as well spend some money on making "home" the best we can make it. Those long dormant "some day" projects that have been rattling around our brains all seem to be taking on a smidge more importance these days.

Americans seem to be getting back to work -- at home, ON the home. The chart of Home Depot $HD share price certainly bares this out as we're currently hanging out at levels above the pre-coronavirus selloff:

[Options Premium] ...and Chill.

June 19, 2020

Bullish internet stocks continues to be a theme that interests me. Regardless of your political affiliation or taste for conspiracy theories, the effects of the pandemic are still being felt and life doesn't appear to be getting back to "normal" any time soon.

This means many people still need ways to find ways to shop and entertain themselves at home.

In the latest monthly conference call for All Star Charts subscribers, JC highlighted some stocks in the internet sector that should continue to benefit in this tape. Does the story help? Sure, but more importantly the charts are telling the real story.

[Options Premium] Buying Some Software On This Pullback

June 15, 2020

If you believe the longer-term uptrend is still in tact, then you have to love opportunities to buy on the dip during market pullbacks.

And the best place to look for these dips is in the strongest sectors that have been leading us higher since the depths of March. The software sector is in my sights today.

[Options Premium] Utilizing Premium Again

June 5, 2020

This is starting to become a monthly trade.

I like to keep a few delta neutral trades active in the portfolio at all times (if I can). It's a good diversifier and also benefits from sleepy or sideways markets that tend to not help any of my directional trades.

So I regularly scan my list of the most active optionable ETFs to pick out the ones with the highest implied volatility and charts that look like the potential for sideways action setting up (ideally). And once again, for the 3rd month in a row, The utilities sector is standing out for me.

The last two strangles worked out. This time, we're gonna do a slightly different twist.
