Hey Traders,
Markets are closed for President’s Day today, so I figured it’d be the perfect time to talk about something important.
On Friday, I showed you this trade we placed two weeks ago that completely worked against us — and yet we STILL won it!
Today, I want to show you another winning trade that just closed three days ago.
Same strategy.
Same sector (tech).
Different stock — this time it was AVGO.
Except this time, we went bullish, meaning we expected the stock to go up.
The Trade Setup
Last Tuesday, as AVGO was trading around $231.45, I issued this trade alert:
Sell to open AVGO 02/14/2025 220 Put (expiring Friday)
Buy to open AVGO 02/14/2025 217.5 Put (expiring Friday)
Suggested net credit: .20 or more
A .20 net credit on a $2.50 difference in strike prices is an 8.0% yield in just 3 days.
Suggested Trip Wire: 222.
That gave us plenty of room — AVGO could have fallen more than $11, and we’d still have ended up with a winning trade.
But AVGO didn’t drop at all.
The Week at a Glance
🔹 Tuesday: Right after we placed our trade, AVGO shot up like a rocket, climbing as high as $238.
🔹 Wednesday: CPI report came out, and just like most other stocks, AVGO sank like a rock at the open. But here’s the thing: it never even got close to our strike price. The lowest it got was $230 before bouncing hard and closing above $236.
🔹 Thursday: PPI report came out, and AVGO took another round trip — opening around $235, dipping, then bouncing back and closing in the same range.
🔹 Friday: AVGO looked exhausted — opening just below $235 and slowly sinking throughout the day, closing the day (and the week) at $233.
But despite all the up and down action, we didn’t have to break a sweat because we didn’t care where exactly AVGO ended the week.
Because all that mattered was that it didn’t fall below 220, which was the strike price of the put that we sold.
Another Week, Another Win
Unlike last week’s trade, where the stock moved against us the entire time, this is a lot more typical of how our income trades go.
In fact, Friday’s win marked 28 weeks in a row that we’ve logged a winner.
That’s over half a year of placing one trade per week — and not a single one has turned into a loser.
Now, I don’t say this to brag. I’m not doing anything magical here. I don’t have a crystal ball.
I’m simply playing the odds and trading in a way that doesn’t require me to be exactly right.
As long as I’m in the ballpark, I can win.
And when you stack those kinds of high-probability trades over and over again… well, you get the kind of ridiculously consistent results we’ve been seeing.
The Perfect Time to Trade This Strategy
Here’s why this is even more important right now:
Did you know that the market is seasonally strong in late February and through March? We’re about to enter that period where the market typically goes up.
So if If you’ve been thinking about trading this way, now is the time to do it.
Because if it can log 28 weeks in a row with a win while the markets have been doing all the churning they’ve been doing lately… imagine what this strategy can do when the market really gets going.
Now, I want to show you exactly how this strategy works — because if you’re not trading this way, you’re leaving money on the table.

Trade well,
Jack Carter
