The Trump Tariffs are going to SUPERCHARGE the strategy I’ve used to win 31 straight trades — going all the way back to last summer! |
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
All three indexes gapped up strongly over the weekend. Does that mean we’re out of the woods? Not by a long shot… but it does tell us something about what the market’s thinking…
So this week I’ve got 1 bullish and 2 bearish tickers for you:
- VRSN (bullish)
- AVY (bearish)
- LEN (bearish)
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:
- 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. - 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. - 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,
Jack Carter
