After producing this record since May 27, 2014: We did run into some losers. But we continue to hold everything. Thankfully, given market volatility, losses for us haven’t been a historical problem. Our Enerplus (ERF) position returned as much as 35% gains days after...

After a dizzying week of ups and downs, the market is finding weakness at double top. Failure could send it down badly, which is why we hold the DIA November 169 put. At some point, the Dow needs to correct. Hold that and all other open positions. We see no reason to...

Yesterday, we exited half of the TOL December 2014 36 put for gains of up to 29%. Today, after watching the underlying stock, we feel it’s best to exit the second half of the trade for up to 33% gains. It’s better to be safe than risk the gain here.

Jim Cramer wants investors to buy Home Depot (HD) on weakness. Apparently, he’s not a technical guy because there is good downside risk here. We can look at this chart for two seconds and tell you this is not a sustainable move. MACD alone tells us HD needs to...

As hoped, Toll Brothers (TOL) pulled back from massively overbought conditions, falling $1.50 on the day. That move sent our TOL December 36 puts to $3 – a 25% gain from a $2.40 entry. We’re recommending that sell to close just half of the position today to secure...

We see no reason to exit our positions in Red Robin (RRGB) or Noodles & Company (NLDS). Both may be down. But given patience they should come back very nicely. Both stocks are massively oversold and ready to reverse off these lows. With NDLS, MACD and RSI are...

We caught the Dow upswing from it 200-day moving average, walking with gains of 62% and 27% on DIA October 167 calls the other week… But we were sure to jump out at double top, where the Dow is beginning to break down. The Dow is insanely overbought on RSI and MACD…...

After closing many wins since late July 2014, we do have some losses. But we continue to hold all open positions. Today, we have a new trade. And it should work out beautifully. It’s silver. It’s over-extended to the downside on MACD and RSI, as the underlying...

Since December 2013, we’ve closed a total of 38 winning positions… and only six losers. That’s after we banked 39% and 44% gains on the Hershey (HSY) November 90 and January 90 calls just last week. Not too shabby… Today, we’re adding oil and gas drilling company,...

After trading the home builders and the DIA for quick 15-day gains, we now have an opportunity to trade the downsides. Toll Brothers (TOL) – for example – just gave us returns of 44% and 65% gains on the long side. But the stock is now over-extended to the upside,...
