[Options Premium] This Trade Fits the Bill

May 31, 2024

As I mentioned in yesterday's Options Jam Session, the stock market is currently sending mixed signals and it has me open to the idea of adding some short exposure to my portfolio to balance the risks to my open long positions.

So I'm on the hunt for weak stocks that are showing signs of losing significant support levels.

Today's trade fits the bill.

[Options Premium] If The Semis Rally Continues, AMD Rides.

May 30, 2024

If the way Nvidia is trading is an indication that the semiconductors run is far from over, then we have to believe some additional names down the cap scale will attempt to play catchup.

One of those names is Advanced Micro Devices.

Check out the ground that $AMD has to cover to get back to all-time highs:

[Options Premium] Just Do It

May 29, 2024

My portfolio could benefit from some directional diversification right now. As such, I had my eye on a bearish bet this morning to help balance out my mostly directionally long exposure.

And one name that I and our analysts discussed in our meeting yesterday appears to be hanging on the precipice of a potentially large fall. The company will be announcing earnings on July 4th (who does that?) and I think that might be the final nail in the coffin to send this stock lower (if not sooner).

[Options Premium] A Pipeline to Profits

May 28, 2024

Last week in Sonoma, we uncovered a bunch of potential trades that are setting up in a variety of sectors. But one of them is sending a glaring signal that it is ready for us to get involved right now, so let's not waste any time.

[Options Premium] America!

May 20, 2024

Specifically, the Bank of...

My analysts are bullish on Bank of America $BAC and for good reason:

Bank of America is on the verge of breaking out of a bearish-to-bullish reversal pattern.

As you can see in the lower pane, BAC recently resolved higher from a similar basing formation versus the broader market.

We like it long only if it is above 38.50 with a 2-4 months target of 50.

Options premiums are cheap, so lets keep it simple.

[Options Premium] "Abroad"-ening Rally

May 17, 2024

As this bull market shows signs of resuming its march higher, we're setting our sights abroad because U.S. stocks don't have a monopoly on great setups. There are some great companies overseas that trade here in the U.S. that are also setting up for great stock rallies.

Today's trade is in a biopharma name.

[Options Premium] I AM GOLD

May 15, 2024

I. AM. GOLD.

I mean, it's right there in the name. This company makes no bones about what they do. And I'm into it. Especially when I'm looking for a leveraged play into the metals sector for a potentially big move.

Buying here might not be for the feignt of heart, but if you love gap-no-go patterns with a long time horizon to play out, this might be the golden ticket.

[Options] The Way Fair(er) Price is Higher

May 13, 2024

In today's Flow Show, Steve Strazza and I talked about how this market is setting up to be potentially very problematic for short sellers.

And the most pain will likely be felt in the stocks that currently have a heavy short interest.

With this in mind, the short squeeze pond is where we want to be fishing for long ideas.

In the video above, you can watch how Steve and I developed today's trade idea in Wayfair $W.

[Options] I Buy New All Time Highs

May 7, 2024

No setup gets me more excited than buying a fresh new all-time high.

There are no bagholders looking to unload their losing position to breakeven. Every investor or trader holding a long position is making money. And every trader holding a short position is losing money and the only way they correct that sad state of affairs is to buy stock to stop their losses.

In other words, blue skies above.

This doesn't guarantee success on a long trade here, of course. But these are the types of trades that commonly lead to my biggest gains.
