[Options Premium] Getting Low to Catch a High

January 13, 2020

There's a household name setting up for a bullish breakout to all-time highs sporting the lowest implied volatility in options prices in nearly three years! How do I not play this one?

These are my favorite types of setups and I get to play them simple.

[Options Premium] Stirring the Honeypot

January 10, 2020

Until further notice -- given to us by price action -- there is no reason to be on the hunt for bearish setups. There's no award handed out for being the first to catch the turn. More than likely, you'll needlessly exhaust a ton of capital -- both money and emotional -- taking hit after hit.

Let somebody else take the body blows.

One of the bullish setups JC and I discussed in the latest All Star Options monthly conference call is setting up and I feel like it's getting ready to spring into action.

[Options Premium] Shiny Sideways Action

January 6, 2020

Welcome to 2020, where vision will not be in hindsight -- except when using past trends to inform decisions on future price action.

I don't know about you, but I'm pretty excited to kick off a year that is likely to see lots of volatility. Volatility is a traders best friend, when harnessed to our advantage. Sure, investors don't like volatility. But active traders thrive in it. And that's what we are here.

After that setup, I'm going to let you down with my first trade of the year being one to capture what we feel is some sideways action setting up in the metals space. LOL

[Options Premium] Stalled Luster

December 6, 2019

Believe it or not, there isn't a bull market EVERYwhere. Of course, if you give yourself a steady diet of SHOUT!TV! then this is not a surprise to you because everything is bearish (on TV).

As we begin the last leg of 2019 into the holidays, trading often gets a little uneventful (last year being a MAJOR exception). Feels to me a great time to be putting some delta-neutral income trades on.
