How I Make Money Even When Stocks Go Nowhere

Jack Carter | February 10, 2025

Hey Traders,

Have you looked at NVDA lately?

It was one of the hottest stocks of 2024 — gaining a shocking 173%+ last year…

But here’s the thing: despite all that momentum, it hasn’t made new highs in months.

In fact, NVDA has been bumping its head against an invisible ceiling around $153 — once in November, and again in January.

That means if you bought NVDA anywhere in the last couple of months, there’s a good chance you’re underwater right now…

  • If you bought it at $140 around Halloween…
  • If you grabbed it at $150 the week before Thanksgiving…
  • Or if you picked it up at $141 right before Christmas…

With NVDA trading around $133 today, plenty of traders have bought the stock and are currently upside down on their trade.

But not me — And not my followers.

Because we’ve been trading NVDA in a way that lets us make money—even while it drops.

Now, before I tell you about this strategy, I want to make sure you understand: NVDA is still one of my favorite stocks to trade — it’s a powerhouse in the AI space and a leader in the semiconductor world.

But even the best stocks don’t go up in a straight line. That’s why I don’t just rely on price movement alone — I make sure I’m getting paid, whether NVDA goes up, down, or sideways.

How to Get Paid Even When a Stock Goes Down or Sideways

Can you imagine watching NVDA rocket up all year…
Finally deciding to jump in at the end of the year…
And then seeing it go down?!

Talk about feeling like you missed the boat!

But my followers and I don’t worry about that.

Because we’re not just buying and hoping.

We’re getting paid — month after month — by selling covered calls against strong stocks like NVDA and GOOG.

It’s one of my favorite cash flow strategies, because even if a stock goes nowhere, we still collect income!

Just look at GOOG last week.

After earnings, GOOG tanked 15% in one day — but we didn’t have a care in the world.

Because we had already gotten paid — and we’d keep that money whether GOOG went up, down, or sideways.

I’ve been using this same approach on NVDA for a long time, and it’s been a cash machine — whether the stock is ripping higher or cooling off.

But recently, I found another income opportunity that might just outshine even my biggest cash flow plays.

My New Favorite Income Play

As I’ve been explaining, I’ve been using this strategy for years on stocks like NVDA and GOOG…

But recently, I found something even better.

A ticker that has even higher premiums…
Even better cash flow potential…
And — as always — has even less risk than just owning the stock outright.

It’s IBIT — an ETF tied to Bitcoin.

And the returns I’m generating with this are just outrageous.

I placed my first trade on it live during an event two weeks ago without thinking much of it…

But now that I see what it can do?

I’m all in.

The premiums are so juicy that I ran the numbers — and even I had to do a double take.

I’m talking about double-digit monthly yields — on a strategy that reduces risk instead of increasing it.

And now, I’m showing traders exactly how I’m doing it.

Want to See How It Works?

I recorded a video to break down everything about this income strategy.

✔ I revealed why this setup is so powerful.
✔ I walked through how I’m trading it myself.
✔ And I showed how this could be one of the best income plays on the market right now.

If you want to see what has me so fired up, you can watch this video I recorded for you.

This is one you don’t want to miss.

Trade well,
Jack Carter

Trending Stocks of the Week — February 10, 2025

Jack Carter | February 10, 2025

Have you seen the greatest income-generating opportunity I’ve seen in my nearly 40 year trading career?
If not, you need to click here and watch this video now!

To help you discover the power of trends, every week I share with you a handful of the top trending stocks.

These stocks are picked by my purpose-built, custom-made TrendPoint software to pick the strongest trending stocks in the market right now.

If you know anything about me, you know that every trade I get into starts with a trending stock.

Unless a stock is in a strong trend, I don’t want to hear about it. In my book, wishy washy stocks are the quickest way to losing money.

This Week’s Stocks

The three major indexes are all trending bullish, but these 3 stocks are trending even more strongly than the broad market:

  • BROS
  • FTNT
  • WEAV

And don’t forget about last week’s list, which you can find here.

What can you do with these stocks?

Well, there are a couple of things you could consider — after doing your own research, of course:

  1. You could just buy the stock. This is probably the simplest thing you could do. Then just wait for it to go up and sell when you hit a profit target you’re comfortable with. This is only for stocks we’re long on. For stocks we’re short on, you can short them.
  2. You could buy an option. You know I’m not a fan of speculative plays, but every once in a while it doesn’t hurt to throw a little cash at a speculative option. Of course, while options can move bigtime if the stock goes up… the downside of options is that you have a time limit on how quickly you need the stock to make that move. So think about your risk tolerance and consider buying calls or puts depending on the stock recommendations above.
  3. You could do an income play. If you’ve been following me for any length of time, you know that I’m a big fan of income plays, because they increase your odds of winning. We do this by SELLING options instead of buying them. If you haven’t tried your hand at income trading yet, I urge you to try this exercise for yourself.

Without risking any money, it will really let you see the power of income trading and why it’s my favorite method.

Whether you end up doing naked puts, covered calls or some kind of spread (like this bull put spread example), income plays like these are really my preferred method to use when I’ve found a great trending stock like the ones on this week’s list.

Because even if the trend comes to an end, you don’t have to be exactly right. With a direction play like buying a call, you have to be exactly right. But an income play gives you a lot more “leeway”, where the stock can move against you and you still have room to breathe and win the trade.

That’s it for now.

Stay tuned, because I’ll be sending you a new list of TrendPoint Best Trending Stocks every week! (usually Mondays)

Trade well,
