We continue to hold all open positions. We see no reason to exit any but this one. Just yesterday, before the market ran up on absolutely nothing, we issued a buy alert on the DIA November 2014 169 put. Shortly after, we heard that some of you bought between $2.30...

After a massive run of winners since December 2013, we do have some positions that are down. We see absolutely no reason to exit any of them at this point, though, holding with plenty of time remaining. While we’re watching new trade opportunities, we have to be very...

We continue to hold the Enerplus (ERF) January 22 calls. Days after issuing that buy, the position was up as much as 35%. While we heard some of you banked that gain, we held. We continue to hold today, despite the down move on dividend suspension news. We still have...

As that old The Gambler song says, “You got to know when to hold ‘em, know when to fold ‘em, know when to walk away, know when to run. You never count you money when you’re sittin’ at table. There’ll be time enough for countin’ when the dealin’s done…” I may not be...

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...

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...

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 a rough start with the Lumber Liquidators (LL) November 60 calls, we now show a gain of 21%. If you’re happy with the gain, sell to close half today to secure gains. Hold the second half of the trade a bit longer. The underlying stock is down about 80 cents...

Consider these two higher risk trade opportunities. Shares of Noodles & Company (NDLS) have been absolutely slaughtered since IPO. But each and every time NDLS gets this low on MACD or RSI, we see a quick bounce to the upside. We hope to do that again now with a...

Well that was ridiculously easy. On August 4, we recommended a buy on the HSY January 2015 90 call as it traded at just $3.10. Today, it’s up to $4 for gains of 29%. Sell to close just half of the position to secure that quick gain. We also recommended a buy on the...
