On October 16, I issued a buy consideration on the CELG January 90 call, and the GILD January 105 call. Both underlying stocks were wildly oversold, finding support after a massive 900-point drop on the Dow. The next day, I recommended that you consider exiting half...

This worked out a bit quicker than we thought it would. While our goal with this service is to hold trades long-term, the profit opportunity today is too good to pass on. As the market lost its mind again yesterday, we issued a buy on the GILD January 105 call and the...

After taking some good gains on the volatility calls in recent days, Staples, and McDonald’s, many positions in the open portfolio took a hit on the 1,000-point move lower. I recommend holding all position, though. There’s still time remaining. Today, I wanted to...

This has been quite a market. One day we’re down 267. The next day we’re up 165. Then we’re all over the place. Then today we’re down more than 120 at open. It’s madness, as we near the end of QE3. Hold all positions, though with the exception of the Staples (SPLS)...

After a beautiful string of wins since December 2013, we did run into some losers. We continue to hold everything, though, with plenty of time remaining. All positions in the portfolio are long-term holds, despite pullbacks in a very volatile market. In a week’s time,...

After a great deal of solid wins since December 2013, we have run into losers in one of the most troubling months for the markets in recent memory. We may have closed out nine solid double-digit wins since August 2014, but we have losers after the markets 350-point...

While holding all other positions in this chaotic mess we call a stock market, sell to close the DIA November 169 put for gains right now. The market looks like it wants to reverse higher after plummeting 170 points at the open. Once you close out that put, buy to...
