The Waterfall of Opportunity

Jack Carter | October 6, 2025

Hey traders,

I’ve been saying this a lot lately — there’s a waterfall of opportunity in this market.

Every single day, something’s setting up.

You don’t need to chase every ticker under the sun. You just have to recognize the patterns that fit your style — and take your piece when it’s there.

Here’s what I mean.

Last week I closed a short-term options trade that made about 8% in just a few days. Nothing fancy, nothing risky. Just a solid setup that played out.

This week, I’m looking at another one just like it — same structure, same process.

That’s the beauty of this market right now: it’s giving us the same high-probability opportunities over and over.

And when volatility’s up — like it is now — it’s a premium seller’s dream.

You can collect income by:
• Selling out of the money puts
• Selling covered calls on strong names like NVDA or GOOG while they grind higher
• Running short term credit spreads on liquid tickers with tight bid/ask spreads so time decay works for you instead of against you

If you string those together, week after week, it adds up fast.

I know 8% doesn’t sound like a lot, but you’d be surprised how quickly that turns into double and even triple digits when you stack wins week after week.

You don’t have to nail every trade. You just need to consistently hit singles and doubles while the rest of the crowd is trying to hit home runs.

The key is discipline — knowing when and when not to swing.

Jeffry Turnmire and I talked all about this “waterfall of opportunity” on the latest episode of Market Masters.

But when we talk about a “waterfall,” we’re not talking about chaos… we’re talking about flow. Strong trends, clear setups, and plenty of premium to collect if you know where to look.

In fact, today, I held a special session on how bullish the S&P is and the massive opportunities right in front of us.

In it, I showed what’s driving this next leg up — and how to position yourself for it without having to chase the rally. Check it out here.

Trade well,

Trending Stocks of the Week — October 6, 2025

Jack Carter | October 6, 2025

Is the market ready to rip in Q4?
Better read this before you place a single trade!

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

So… the big, scary government shutdown hit and nothing happened.

Well, something did happen. All three indexes hit new all time highs (again!) after the shutdown.

Markets just don’t seem to care about it.

And that’s why I tell you: Find the the trend and trade it.

Every week there’s something that could keep you on the sidelines: earnings, Fed announcements, government shutdown, “this markets’ overbought”. I’m telling you, I’ve lived through all of it.

If I had spent my life listening to the news instead of the trend, I’d still be on the sidelines. Because the reasons to worry never stop.

But the trend is your friend.

And right now the trend is BULLISH.

Here’s 3 bullish tickers that just popped up on my scan:

  • GLW
  • NEM
  • GDX

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. Buy or short — For bullish stocks, 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 upward-trending stocks we’re long on.

    For downward-trending stocks (those that we’re bearish on), you can short them. This is a little more advanced, so if you’re just getting started, I wouldn’t recommend this play. Remember, just like buying a stock, shorting comes with unlimited risk if the stock moves against you, so always have a clear stop-loss in place.
  2. You could buy an option.

    For bullish stocks, this means buying a call option.
    For bearish stocks, this means buying a put 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. Just remember, 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 when you consider buying calls on bullish stocks or buying puts on bearish stocks.
  3. You could collect instant income.

    If you’ve been following me for any length of time, you know that I’m a big fan of income plays, because they massively increase your odds of winning. We do this by SELLING options instead of buying them.

    Not only do income plays let you get paid instantly — as soon as you place the trade. You massively increase your odds of winning, because the way we trade them, you don’t have to be 100% right about the direction of the stock.

    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.

    Income plays on bullish stocks can be naked puts, covered calls or a bull put spread.

    Income plays on bearish stocks will be a little more complicated. But if you’re a more advanced trader, you can look into doing a short term bear call spread, which involves selling an out-of-the-money call and buying a call one strike price higher.

That’s all for now.

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

Trade well,
