Hey traders, Quick market update and how I’m handling it. Lately, the tone’s shifted. The market isn’t as strong as it was a few sessions ago. We tagged support at my short-term 20 day trend point, slipped through it, and found firmer footing closer to the intermediate-term 50 day trend point — that’s a sign […]

Hey traders, New highs make people nervous. I get it. You hear “bubble,“ you hear “it can’t keep going,“ and pretty soon you’re white-knuckling every tick. Here’s what nearly four decades in this game have taught me: When the market makes fresh all-time highs, the first pullback is often buyable. Not always. But often enough […]

Hey traders, I’ve been talking a lot about my Triple Crown of income trading lately. And that’s because I think a lot of traders get distracted with flashy strategies and rare triple digit gains. When in reality real wealth is built consistently over time. Of of the parts of the Triple Crown strategy is selling […]

Hey traders, For months I’’’ve heard the same drumbeat: “Big drop coming. Any day now.” Meanwhile… the market keeps walking higher, pulling back, then grinding again.

Hey Traders, Last week, Nvidia reported earnings. And I saw something that should be a wake-up call for anyone who thinks buying puts and calls is the easy way to riches. What’s an “Expected Move”? Options markets actually tell you what kind of move a stock should make by a certain date. You find it […]

Hey traders, Earlier this week I showed you why I love selling puts on strong stocks — and even how Warren Buffett uses the same playbook. So today, I want to zoom out and talk about what happens on the back end of those trades: options assignment. A lot of folks think that if your […]

Hey traders, Sometimes we make this game too complicated. Charts, indicators, fancy math… all that has its place. But one of my favorite setups is dead simple. It’s this: When a quality stock breaks out to new 52-week highs, wait for the first pullback… then buy it. That’s it. Why? Because momentum is real. When […]

Hey Traders, Some folks think you’ve got to own the stock to trade a stock like Tesla. But I’m here to tell you… the best way to trade Tesla isn’t the stock at all. It’s the options. Why Options Beat the Stock Here’s the thing — even on days when Tesla isn’t the most traded […]

Hey traders, Some folks talk about their favorite stocks like they’re talking about a high school sweetheart. “They’ve been so good to me over the years.”“They’ll come back. They always do.” And sure — I get it. When a stock like Tesla or Apple’s been on a tear, it’s easy to feel like you’ve found […]

Hey traders, A lot of folks think volatility is the enemy. They hear the VIX is spiking, or see a stock swinging $20 in a day, and they want to run for cover. Me? I pull up a chair. Because volatility is where the real money’s made. Of course, it’s got to be the right […]
