Beyond FoMo... Speculation.Beyond Meat is breaking out of a Bull Flag and is at the bullish 50 & 200 day ema crossover point. If the price can break through and stay above the strong 170 resistance area for a couple weeks this could confirm a bullish long term trend. Although there needs to be a considerable increase in volume to make this happen. Watch out for a "Fakeout" above resistance which could have high volatility like on Jan 26th A covered straddle option strategy is useful in a scenario like this when the price could move up or down quickly. The RSI is looking weak, the price could move down after getting rejected at a resistance point and remain in the pennant shape for many more months until it makes its major move out. Make sure to be aware of the overall market conditions while trading and avoid over leveraging in risky setups.

Disney Short - Rejection of EMA's / Credit Spread TradeI am looking at entering a short position on Disney (DIS) via a call-credit spread because of a few criteria that are present within the chart. First and foremost, on the daily chart, there is a consistent downtrend present since March 8th of this year, characterized by constant rejections of the 10, 25, and 50 exponential moving averages. I will be selling to open a vertical credit spread on the call side which will put theta in my favor and gave me negative delta. As such, my breakeven will continuously rise, and by expiration, I will hit full profit as long as DIS is anywhere below $180.00 / share. The breakeven point throughout this trade is the blue ray that I've drawn from todays date up until my contract expiration, which is on July 16th. STO - July 16th, 180 C BTO - July 16th, 185 C Greeks: Delta: About -$14.00 as of 06/23/21 Theta: (Working for me) - $1.60 Stochastics are showing signs of life to the positive side, which is fine as I am scaling into my short position. Not particularly worried about a massive move upwards. I am looking for a price target of $167.00-ish, but will take profits earlier if the need arises. I will stop out above $180.00.

Ride Lordstown Stock - My Worst Trade?You know, on YouTube, all these traders, they’re always showing you how much money they make with trading, but very few of them are actually talking about the bad trades. Well, you know what? I thought today I’m going to address this head-on because many of you had questions about a bad trade that I’m in. That trade being RIDE , Lordstown Motors. I want to discuss why I entered the trade in the first place, what went wrong with this trade, how it is hurting my account right now, and what I’m personally doing to get out of it. Why I Got Into RIDE So far my realized profits for the year to date are at $94,476. So that’s pretty good, right? I mean, for trading for only 6 months and this is on a $250,000 cash account, which I’m using as a margin account. So I have a stock buying power of 2:1. So $500,000 in buying power. Well you see, all of this would be handy, dandy, and good if there weren’t this one pesky, huge unrealized loss. This huge unrealized loss comes from one trade, RIDE. Now, I want to tell you first quickly why I got into this, and then I want to show you what happened, what I’ve been doing so far, and what I’m planning to do. Back in mid-February or 2021, I am with my kids at a sailing regatta in Florida, and we’re doing good. I have a few positions on, all is planned and then this massive snowstorm hits Austin, Texas. Snowmageddon! This meant that we are trapped in Florida. Yeah, boohoo, could be worse places to be. Anyhow, I’m there in my RV. So it’s a 44-foot motor home and we are stuck there, and you know what? I’m bored out of my mind, and this is when I start tinkering around with my trading plan, which I definitely shouldn’t have done. So I’m entering a trade and I’m taking it with my Mastermind group. And I say, “you know what? I am going to take an aggressive trade.” Trading while bored is never a good idea, and I don’t like to trade the usual trades. But there was nothing to do, so I wanted to take a more aggressive trade. At that point, I liked Lordstown Motors and its story. Again, this is mid-February, way before Hindenburg Report. So I’m selling puts at a strike price of 21.50, the premium was good, and the current price was somewhere around $26, so all was looking good. What Happened To RIDE? Pretty much the day before my options expire, the Hindenburg Report comes out and says that they have a bunch of orders that are fake, that are not real orders, they are just pre-commitments, and their trucks catch on fire. So it’s a scathing report. Well the markets reacted, and within a few days, RIDE fell from $24 to around $17, and I got assigned 7,000 shares at my strike price of $21.50. Now, first of all, getting assigned is not a problem at all. I’m trading The Wheel Strategy and getting assigned is part of it. I’ve been stuck in trades before that went against me. My plan when this happens is, as soon as the stock dips more than 30 percent, I am flying a rescue mission . A rescue mission means that now I am selling more puts hoping to get assigned, and therefore lowering my cost basis . My Plan To Get Out of RIDE So this all is still according to my plan, and that plan is, I will fly a rescue mission at some point when the stock is down more than 30 percent. So this means I needed the price to go down to around $14. At this point, I flew a rescue mission and sold more puts. I do believe it was for a 10 strike price. I didn’t want to use all of my buying power for a rescue mission. I like to fly rescue missions in thirds so instead of going in with 100 contracts, which I would usually do, I’m selling only 30 contracts. So now after I’m doing this and getting assigned, I’m lowering my cost basis to $15.79. This basically means that I bought 7,000 shares at $21.50, and I bought another 3,000 shares at around $10, I now own $10,000 shares at an average price, so this is the cost basis here, at an average price of $15.79, instead of $21.50. Usually, what do you see? It is very, very rare that a stock will go down in a straight line. Usually what you see that the stock is going down, bouncing a little bit back up, down, bouncing a little bit up. This is where often you can apply Fibonacci lines, right? And this is why the Fibonacci tools are so powerful where you these retracements. However, RIDE is one of the rare stocks that does not like to bounce back. RIDE Is one of these rare stocks that actually went down almost in a straight line without ever bouncing back. That, of course, causes a problem, because if I’m owning 10,000 shares at a cost basis of $15.79, and the prices are now at around $9-$10, I cannot sell calls anymore. Now, this is part of my strategy The Wheel Strategy that again, I’ve been very successfully trading for a long, long time, where I made in almost $95,000 in realized profits. How RIDE Has Affected My Account But again, this one here is a bugger. It just did not want to bounce back. Now it gets even worse and here’s why. Since I have been flying a rescue mission with one-third, where I actually bought another 3,000 shares, I am flying more rescue missions because I still have another two-thirds available for my rescue missions. So I’m selling puts, 30 puts at a time, at a level of $8 and $7, hoping to get assigned. What does RIDE do? Never goes low enough to actually get me in so that I can lower my cost basis anymore. Now, with my Mastermind members, we have been following this trade together, and many of them have actually been able to get assigned and lower their cost basis. I don’t know what happened here, this is just one of these trades where nothing goes according to plan. Well, a few things went according to plan, but here I didn’t get assigned. So this means that my cost basis is still sitting at $15.79 and RIDE at one point went all the way down to a low of $6.69. Now, when you have a cost basis of $15.79, you have a difference of $9.10. When you have a loss per share of $9.10, and you own 10,000 shares, that is an unrealized loss of $91,000. This is how bad it got. However, I was still following my plan because that’s what I like to do. I have a plan, and I’m following my plan, and I’m selling more and more premium. By doing so was able to collect $14,248 in premium. So yes, I am sitting on a big unrealized loss, but then I have realized $14,248 that I collected in premium. That money has been deposited in my account. So I can subtract this, which is around $14.28. So I’m deducting this from my cost basis to get at a new break-even of $14.37. What Is Happening With RIDE Now? OK, so this is where my cost basis is and now the magic happens. RIDE actually popped up to $15.80. Now the key question here is that you might ask, “Did you get out?” No, I did not, and there are actually two reasons for it and I want to show you exactly why. 1) When that happened I wasn’t in front of my computer. I’m not watching the stocks all day long. Usually, my trading routine is such that I’m only looking at the markets for thirty minutes in the morning. After this, I’m walking away, I’m doing other stuff, and I’m living my life. So I did not see when RIDE went all the way up to $15.80, and I did not see when shortly after this it crashed all the way down to $11. 2) The 2nd reason is super important. So let me explain this to you according to my plan. According to my plan, I am selling calls against my existing position. I sold 100 hundred calls, at 15.50. These are covered calls because I own these 10,000 shares, and I sold another 200 calls that expire tomorrow (at the time of this writing). Now, here is what happens when the stock jumps up to call options. I mean, if you know options, then you know that as the stock goes up, these call options become worth more money. This is why I’m making money on the stock. So on the stock, yay, I’m making money, and on these options, before expiration, I would lose money. Part of the game. How much were these options down when this happened? So we are talking about the 15.50 call, and they went as high as $1.07, so means that on the option, I would lose $10,700, even though right now with the stocks, I would be at break even. So even if I were in front of my computer at this time, I might not have liquidated it, because if I had, I would have still suffered a $10,700 loss. Now, obviously, everybody can say, “Well Markus you should have done this.” Yeah of course. Woulda, coulda, shoulda. You see, in hindsight, we are all the greatest traders. So what happened here? We had positive momentum, this was all before the report with the SEC was filed and it looked good, right? I mean, Lordstown Motors just announced that they will take their Lordstown week virtual, where they let the whole world see what is going on. I mean, I don’t know how good you are at chart reading, but even if you just know some simple chart reading, you would have been able to see a solid one, two, three formation, and we broke above number two. So this from a chart formation standpoint is a solid uptrend. Also, you know that I like to use my indicators and the three indicators that I like to use, according to the PowerX Strategy, are RSI, they are stochastics, they are MACD. So all of this looked really, really good, and this is where we saw that RIDE has been in an uptrend. Then the news hit and of course, you can never factor in the news, and it went all the way down. What Do I Do Now? Honestly, when I looked at the chart, at this point when everything was going on, it looked good. RIDE just recently had the highest volume ever. So what am I doing right now? I am aggressively selling calls at, or slightly below, my break even. So I have an order in there to basically roll this week’s, so this will expire worthless. By doing so, it will add another $1,000 to the existing $14,000. So this is good. It brings me up to more than $15,000. And now the next thing that I want to do here is, for next week, sell the 14 call. My idea here is that for this I would like to achieve a credit of 50 cents. Now, just to let you know, a credit of 50 cents means for the size that I’m trading, $5,000. Now for tomorrow (time of writing was on 6–10–2021), depending on what Lordstown does tomorrow, I’m willing to lower it to $3,000. You see, if I can make $3,000 per week on Lordstown Motors, that will be good. Obviously, I know that there is a good possibility that Lordstown can go further down. Yesterday that there was a massive move. We went from $10 to almost $13 on some rumors that they might have secured funding. Now, hope is not a strategy. I’m not hoping that they will secure funding, but here’s what I see. I see that if there is a small pump, and at this point the pump might only be, right now we are trading at $10.59, so if it is from $10.59 to $11.50, the 14 call option will double in value. This is when I can possibly, instead of $3,000, bring in $6,000 or $8,000 per week. Now, what does this do? It lowers my break-even to a point where I can get out with maybe a small loss. And you see, for the size that I’m trading, for me a small loss, I discussed it with my head coach Mark Hodge earlier, would be around $20,000 That’s a fairly small loss for me. That would be absolutely OK. See, based on $250,000 in cash, $20,000 is less than 10 percent, closer to an 8 percent hit. If I’m basing it on the margin of $500,000, it would be a 4 percent hit. It really depends on how you see it. You see, some of you might do it based on the cash, others might do it on the margin. So that’s what I’m looking for. Where Do I Stand With RIDE Now? So where do I stand right now? So as of now, RIDE is down. The stock is down $51,000, and I collected $14,284 in premium. So right now I’m down about $36,000. It’s not too bad. I mean, yes, let’s face it, that’s not nice. $36,000 based on my account size is around 15 percent. So it’s not nice, but it’s manageable. I mean, think about it. Have you ever done a trade that took down your account by half, or by even more? I mean, in the beginning of my trading career, I did super stupid trades. I was placing trades that really brought my account down by 50 to 60 percent. So what I’m looking for right now are these pops where we go from $10.50 to $11.50. Because the implied volatility that is governing options premium for RIDE is kind of off the chart. The implied volatility, right now, 242 percent. Two days ago it was 300 and 400 percent. So what I noticed earlier today and yesterday is, as soon as we see a one-dollar pop, which again happens all the time, this is when it’s not that nice. I have to watch it a little bit more throughout the day, which is really not my style. I really don’t like to obsess about stocks. I don’t know about you, I like to go on with my life. But here, since right now we are really in trouble and I have to get out of this trade. This is my goal here, again with hopefully a small loss, we shall see. This is why I’m looking right now for these pops, because honestly, this little pop for the size that I’m trading, this here is probably worth to be around $1,000. Currently, every $1,000 helps. So right now, the loss is around $35,000. Once I’m getting to a loss of $20,000, I’ll be fine. Tomorrow, another $1,000 is being added to the realized profits. So I’m going from $14,284 to $15,284. And then the idea is right now to sell the 14 call, and by selling the 14 call I would probably make $5,000. Now, why would I sell the 14 call, if my break-even right now is $14.39? Doesn’t that mean that I’m losing money? No, because for this I’m bringing in 50 cents so this lowers my break-even to $13.89. Anyhow, this is what is currently happening, and this by no means is ruining me or, I don’t know, changing my living style. Yeah, it would suck if I lost $20,000, but it’ll probably honestly take me four to six weeks to make back that money. So this is why I’ve shown you earlier thus far I’m sitting in $95,000 in realized profits, but let’s see how it goes.

AMC Stock up 3,000%!What is going on with AMC Entertainment? I'm sure you've heard the news: Defying all forms of fundamental analysis and business logic, AMC Entertainment AMC once again finds itself climbing higher. AMC is up 200% advance since last week and almost 3,000% since the beginning of the year. This is another coordinated short squeeze event by retail investors - especially the users of the Reddit Forum /WallStreetBets or "Apes" - as they call themselves. Back in January, AMC Entertainment and fellow Meme Stock, GameStop GME , were the focus of an attack on institutions and hedge funds that held substantial short positions in the stocks. "Being short" means that the investor believes that the price of the stock will fall and that the underlying business does not deserve its current valuation. A short squeeze occurs when the price of a stock climbs and goes against the short position, forcing the short sellers to buy existing shares to "cover" their positions. When a stock has an unusually high short percentage, like AMC and GameStop, investors can actually force the price to go higher by buying up shares at the current price. From there, it is simple economics: the supply of shares falls as the demand increases, driving the price of the equity higher. Just exactly how much have short-sellers lost on AMC? On Wednesday, June 1st, short-sellers betting against AMC lost $2.8 billion, bringing their year-to-date losses to more than $5 billion, according to S3 Partners. The idea of short squeezing these stocks was fueled on social media, Reddit to be exact. The subreddit r/WallStreetBets made AMC and GameStop its darlings, and along the way has amassed an army of Apes numbering over 10 million. Since then, the hashtag #SqueezeAMC has trended all over the internet. Daily trading volume for AMC has topped a staggering 650 million shares over the past few trading sessions, indicating that retail investors are all in! Why Is AMC Stock So High? Mark Twain once said, "history does not repeat itself, but it often rhymes" . AMC and GameStop are once again being squeeze by r/WallStreetBets and other traders that are growing tired of the market manipulation by institutions like hedge funds. There are other catalysts as well though, including the great re-opening following the COVID-19 pandemic. AMC operates nearly 1,000 movie theaters around the world and announced that all of its U.S. locations are back open following an aggressive vaccination rollout. Early indications from both the Easter and Memorial Day long weekends are that movie fans are ready to return to theaters. We are also nearing the summer blockbuster season that will see the return of big-name movies like Space Jam 2, F9 the latest Fast and the Furious movie, and the Suicide Squad sequel. Who is buying AMC stock? AMC CEO Adam Aron is a genius: He has also been hitting all the right notes with investors. Here are just 2 examples: 1.) Aron famously announced that AMC Entertainment was “under attack” by short-sellers, which served as a rallying cry for WallStreetBets. 2.) He additionally revealed that retail investors "own more than 80%" of the company at the last count, meaning a non-institutional base now owns a super-majority of AMC shares. At the last earnings call. he said: "We work for them. I work for them... and their ambitions and passions are important to me." 3.) And yesterday, he was announcing plans that AMC investors will be rewarded with special screenings and free popcorn. Contrast that with ex-GameStop CEO George Sherman, who stayed largely quiet while his company's stock price soared in late January. Did AMC Sell More Shares? Recently, AMC Entertainment sold 8.5 million shares to an investment firm called Mudrick Capital, which helped the company raise about $230 million. Shares surged 20% after this news. Interestingly enough, on the next trading day, shareholder Mudrick Capital turned around and sold all those shares for a quick profit. Mudrick stated that the stock was now overvalued, and given the recent volatility, it's hard to fault them. Had Mudrick held onto the shares, they would now be worth well over $500 million. This morning, June 3rd, AMC announced that it filed for additional share offerings with the SEC. They said it may sell some of the 11 million shares “from time to time.” Apparently, that time was now as it completed the offering in about three hours. AMC said it sold 11.55 million shares at an average price of approximately $50.85 per share - bringing in an additional $587.4 million. This is on top of the $658.5 million already raised this quarter, resulting in a total equity raise in the second quarter of $1.246 billion. What's The Highest AMC Stock Has Been? Yesterday, on June 2nd, AMC rallied an unimaginable 95% to close the trading session at over $72.62 per share, which is the higher it has ever been. AMC has now gained 3000% year to date, which is a clear illustration of the current hysteria surrounding the stock. AMC has now surpassed GameStop's market cap, and is clearly the new favorite stock of WallStreetBets. How High Will It Go? Can AMC really hit 100,000? Nobody actually knows! Any guess is pure speculation right now, so please do not take anyone's word for an actual price target. A short squeeze like this is a ticking timebomb, and as we saw in January, the downside comes harder and faster than the ride up. If you do a quick scan of social media, you will find price targets of anywhere from $100 to $100,000 per share. Remember, it is all speculation, and there are many people who will take advantage of investors feeling FOMO, by pumping out inaccurate information. Let's take the popular figure of $100,000 per share as an example. There are 498 million shares outstanding for AMC. Simple market cap calculation would place the value of AMC at about $50 trillion, or more than the entire S&P 500 index, which is valued at about $35 trillion right now. Before we talk about whether you should be investing in AMC or not, let's talk about the fundamentals: Is AMC losing money? Yes. 2020 was tough for AMC: The company lost 4.5 Billion Dollars. AMC is in a tough position: During the pandemic in 2020, streaming services like Netflix, Disney+, Amazon Prime, Hulu and others gained a lot of momentum. And many people upgraded their home theaters. But with the cash infusion of more than $1.2 Billon, AMC can buy up their competitors, upgrade their theaters and invest in their growth. And as COVID restrictions are being lifted in the US, people are ready to get "back to normal" , and this includes visiting theaters. So AMC could be in a good position to stay in business. Will AMC go up tomorrow? Who knows? In their SEC filings, the company said: "We believe that the recent volatility and our current market prices reflect market and trading dynamics unrelated to our underlying business, and we do not know how long these dynamics will last." And AMC CEO Adam Aron warns: "Under the circumstances, we caution you against investing in our Class A common stock, unless you are prepared to incur the risk of losing all or a substantial portion of your investment." "Should I Buy AMC Shares?" This is the real question: should you buy AMC? Is AMC a good buy? If any other stock gained over 1,100% in less than six months, would that seem like a good time to buy in? Warren Buffett famously said, "be greedy when others are fearful, and fearful when others are greedy". And even the CEO himself thinks that the company is overvalued, stay away from the stock! I can guarantee that much of the FOMO investors buying in now are doing so out of greed. Now, I'm not saying the stock won't continue to rise. WallStreetBets has certainly rallied a large enough army to keep the momentum going for now. But realistically how much higher can we expect the stock to rise? But after last week's gains, most of the move might already be over, and trust me when I say, this is not a bag you want to be left holding. So you might be asking what about me? Would I buy this stock? Heck no! I tend to steer clear from volatility and this level of risk. My focus is always on SRC Profits: Systematic, Repeatable, and Consistent . If you are investing your hard-earned money, there are certainly safer investments to make than a highly speculative social media short squeeze attempt. How to buy AMC shares? At the end of the day, if you still want to buy AMC shares, all you need to do is log on to your brokerage and decide how many shares you would like. With a stock that exhibits as much volatility as AMC does, you may want to consider entering a stop/loss to protect yourself from the downside, which almost always comes faster than you think.

IRON TARIHi guys, this week I found better opportunies buying options rather selling ( IV drop made options cheaper to buy) So the strategy is basically the contrarian of my Tari Condor ( Have a look and subscribe for free!), and as you can see this trade is 4 weeks and 6% spread. The sold strikes are 132 and 117, the bought strikes are almost ATM, it depends on your money managment, for a 65% of probability to get some profit. But let's do some math: Tari Condor says we have only the 22% of possibilities that our sold options will both expire worthless. This means we have 78% of probabilities that the price will move over the sold strikes, higher than the 65% coming from the option chain. So this time the odds are from our side, because now we play from the other side of the Tari Condor. Enjoy your wallet! Tari

Options vs Stocks: Which Is Better?If you are wondering whether to trade options vs stocks, then this article is for you. There’s no simple answer to that question because it depends on how much money you have and your risk tolerance level. This blog post will cover the 7 topics that you need to know to answer the question “Is Options Trading Better Than Stocks?” 1. What Is The Difference Between Buying Stocks and Buying Options? Let’s keep it simple: When you buy a stock, then you own a share of the company and get paid dividends. Buying options, on the other hand, means that you only have the right to buy or sell a stock at a specific price before the option expires. But you don’t own the stock (yet). As you will see in a few moments, options trading requires much less capital than buying a stock, and therefore it’s very attractive. But it can also very confusing. My goal is to make it simple for you. Let’s start with an example: 2. Which Is Better: To Buy A Call Option On A Stock Or To Buy A Stock? Let’s use Apple (AAPL) as an example. Right now, the market price (at the time of this writing on May 6th, 2021) of AAPL is 128.70. Let’s assume, you are bullish on Apple and expect AAPL to go higher. So you could buy 100 shares of AAPL, but this would come with a high price: 100 shares * 128.70 per share = $12,870 If you have a small account, this might be too high of an investment. The good news: You can trade options instead. When you buy a CALL option, you have the right to buy 100 shares of AAPL at a set price (the strike price) on or before the expiration date of the option. You could buy a call option that expires on June 18th. Today is May 6th, so you have 43 days before this option expires worthless The price of the option is $3.75. Options come in “100 packs”, so your investment to buy this call option is only $3.75 * 100 = $375 Why Buy Options Instead Of Stocks? First of all, it’s much cheaper: Compared to the investment of 12,807 to buy 100 shares, that’s only 3% of the money that’s required. And because of that, options more profitable than stocks. Let me explain: 3. Are Options More Profitable Than Stocks? Since you are bullish on AAPL, you expect the stock to go up. Let’s say that over the next few weeks, the stock goes to 140: Let’s take a look at the profits from your stocks first: You bought 100 shares of AAPL at a price of $128.70 per share. Now each share is worth $140. So your profit is 140–128.70 = 11.30 per share * 100 shares = 1,130. Based on your investment of $12,870, that’s 8.8% Return on Investment (ROI). That’s not bad, but let’s take a look at the call option: How Are Options More Profitable Than Stocks? The call option that you bought gives you the right to BUY 100 shares of AAPL for $130 before June 18th. So if AAPL shares move up to $140, you can buy 100 shares of AAPL at $130 and sell them immediately at $140. This means that your profit per share is 140–130 = 10. And since you are trading 100 shares, your profit would be $1,000. But keep in mind: You paid $375 for the right to do this, so you need to subtract this from your profits: 1000–375 = 625. Your total profit is $625. Doesn’t sound much, but based on your $375 investment, that’s 167% return on investment (ROI). In summary: You made more money in terms of absolute dollars on the stock ($1,130 vs. $625), but the money you needed to make this profit was much less: $375 vs. $12,870. And that’s why your ROI is 167% when trading the option vs 8.8% when trading the stock — even though the stock price is exactly the same. Pretty cool, huh? 4. How Much Money Do You Need For Options Trading? As you can see from the previous example, you need MUCH less money when trading options vs trading stocks. When trading options, you can get started with as little as $2,000. Check with your broker about the minimum requirements to open an options trading account. So if you have a smaller account, trading options might be much better for you than stock trading. 5. Can You Lose Money Trading Options? Let’s talk about the risks of options trading, specifically the question “Can you lose money trading options?” The answer: YES, of course! In the example above, you could lose the premium you paid for the option, i.e. $375, if the stock price does not move above the strike price of $130. If AAPL remains below $130 until the expiration date of June 18th, your option expires worthless. And here’s why: With a call option, you have the right to BUY 100 shares of AAPL for $130. If AAPL is trading below $130, let’s say at $128, you don’t want to exercise your right to buy AAPL at $130. Because then you would pay MORE for the stock than you would if you bought it right away. Making sense? So if AAPL stays below $130 until expiration, your option expires worthless and you lose the premium you paid for the right to buy the stock. Can You Lose More Than You Invest In Options? When you are BUYING options, you can not lose more than the premium that you pay when buying options. So that’s good. However, when you are SELLING options, that’s a different story, and we will cover that later. So in summary: When BUYING options, the maximum amount that you could lose is the premium you pay when buying the option. 6. What Are The Risks Of Options Trading? YES, there are risks when trading options: a) Selling Options Can Be Dangerous. As you have seen, when BUYING options your risk is limited to the premium you pay when buying the option. However, as a seller, there’s a lot more risk. In some cases, you can have UNLIMITED risk. We will cover this in detail in a later article. b) Buying Out Of The Money Options. Risky before the probabilities are low. c) Know What You’re Doing When trading options, there are a few more things to consider: Call options vs put options Strike Prices Expiration Dates … and then there are also these pesky “Greeks” like delta, gamma, theta, rho, etc. And when you have more things to consider, there are more possibilities to make mistakes. So make sure that you understand all these factors before you start trading options. We will talk about “The Greeks” later. Are Options Riskier Than Stocks? YES. Because it’s easier to lose ALL of your investment. Let’s continue our example from above: Trading Stocks You bought AAPL at $128.70 per share. If AAPL drops to $125, then you would lose $3.70 per share, or $370 for 100 shares. Based on your initial investment, that’s only 2.9% Trading Options You bought the 130 Call Option for $3.75. If AAPL doesn’t move above 130, you lose ALL of your investment, i.e. 100%. Yes, the investment is much lower, but instead of losing 2.9% as you would when trading stocks, you would lose 100%. Selling Options And when selling options, you can lose A LOT of money. Selling options can be very profitable. In fact, I made more than $75,000 in less than 5 months selling options… … BUT it’s also very risky. Compare options vs stocks like riding a bicycle and riding a motorcycle: Riding a motorcycle gets you to your destination quicker. And it can be more fun. But it’s also much riskier than riding a bicycle. 7. Can You Really Make Money Trading Options? Absolutely! There are many advantages to trading options, and it is possible to make money with options. Is there a safe way to trade options? You need to know what you are doing, and you need to have a solid trading strategy. Find a strategy that you understand and then practice it on a simulator. And when you are ready, start making money with it. Can Option Trading make you rich? When trading options, you will often see returns of 167%, 200% or even 300%. Therefore, it’s easy to believe that options trading can make you rich. But keep in mind: With these high returns, comes high risk. Yes, you can make 200% or 300% when trading options. And you can lose ALL your investment, as you have seen above. Don’t think of options trading as a “get-rich-quick-scheme”. But when used correctly, options trading is perfect to grow a small account into a bigger one. Summary: Should I Trade Options YES! Should I trade stocks or options? Why not do both? Best of both worlds! Is options trading worth it? YES! It can be very rewarding! As we just covered with trading options, there are many, many advantages. If you are not trading options yet, I highly recommend that you start looking into them.

How Earnings Season Affects OptionsAs most of you are aware, it is earnings season. So today we’re going to talk about how earnings season can impact options trading, because, as you know, I trade options. Now, just a brief intro. Earnings season happens quarterly, meaning four times a year, and this is when corporations reveal their financial results for the previous quarter. Now, the results of a company’s earnings report can have a major impact on the stock price, and options will often price in the expectations for a big post-earnings move before the event. This is why it is likely that options premium are more expensive during this time. Implied Volatility One thing to know about this and how it can impact your trading is implied volatility. See, there several things that make up an options price, including the market’s expectation for future volatility, and that is called implied volatility. So why is this important? Well, as the buyer of an option, higher implied volatility means that you are paying more for your contract. So if you buy an option before earnings and hold through earnings, you put yourself at risk for a so-called volatility crash. Now, part of the reason implied volatility goes up so much ahead of earnings is because traders don’t know which way the stock is going to go or by how much. I mean, remember Netflix at the beginning of March? Who would have known that Netflix would soar 17%? But you see, once a company reports earnings, there is no more uncertainty, and this is when implied volatility drops, and in some cases, so does the options price. So if you bought an expensive option, there’s a chance that you have to sell it to close at a lower price even if a stock moves in the direction you want it to. And let me show you a very, very specific example of a volatility crash and why it is so important that you understand the concept of volatility and how it can impact your options trading. So I want to show you right here we see Seagate. Seagate reported earnings last week. And so here is the pre-earnings options data. The day before Seagate, STX, was trading at $61.45, and an At-The-Money call with a 61.50 strike price was going for the last traded price of $1.74, and the implied volatility was 128%. On the other hand, the put was going for $1.82 and the implied volatility was also 128%. Now, this was the day before earnings. Now let’s talk of what happened the day after earnings. So again, here Seagate was trading at $61.45 before earnings, but then the next day, Seagate dropped to $59.33. So it fell dramatically and therefore, and the price of the 61.50 call is only a penny. So it’s not surprising that the call is not worth anything, but here’s the key. Even though the stock fell quite substantially, the put only went from $1.82 to $2.51 so it went up because puts go up as the stock goes down. So this means that the put only went up to $0.70, $0.69 to be exact. You see this is how the volatility crash affects the option price, because even though the put is worth more now, and is now in the money, but it also lost a lot of value due to the decline in implied volatility. See, the previous day, it was 128%, this implied volatility, and the day after only 96%. So you have to factor this in when trading options into earnings. How Is Implied Volatility Measured? So let’s talk about this implied volatility thing and how is this measured, right? You know me, I’m all about practical stuff, so I don’t want to bore you with the math behind it and I don’t have to. The good news is that there are plenty of places online that calculate the implied volatility for you, and I want to show you exactly how you can see if the implied volatility, is high, low, or average. Here is the easiest way to do it. You compare the implied volatility to the stock’s historical volatility for exactly the same time frame. The implied volatility measures the market expectation for future price action. Now, the historical volatility measures the volatility for a stock that already occurred over a specific time frame. All you have to do to see if the implied volatility is high, low, or average compare it to the historical volatility. We can use the implied volatility of AAPL Apple’s Q1 earnings season. Apple was trading at 142. For an at-the-money call, expiring in four days, the implied volatility was 71%, and for the put was 70%. The historical volatility of Apple. And this is something that you’re charting software can show you, it makes sense to look at it in 10, 20, 30, 40 days increments. So if we were to look at the past 10 days, the historical volatility was 37%. But the call was trading at 71%. So what does it tell us? It tells us that the premium on this call, and also on the put, was running more expensive than usual. So now we can see, how this is affected by earnings. Now, let’s take a look at the implied volatility of an at-the-money Apple call from the same time that expired later out at, let’s say March 19th. So for calls expiring March 19th, you see right now the implied volatility is much, much, much lower at 43% for the call, and 43% as well for the put. The historical volatility over the past 60 days was 40.69%. Now compare this to the 43% and we see that it is pretty much in line here. So this means that the premium that was on these calls and puts on options that had 53 days until expiration was pretty much average. Why You Shouldn’t Sell Options Into Earnings Options traders are always talking about implied volatility and historical volatility, and now you know what it is. Now I want to tell you why I don’t sell options into earnings. I mean, even though the stock moves in the direction that you want to, your option premium is getting sucked out of there because of the volatility crash. You see, and this where, as an option seller, you might say, “don’t I want the premium to be as high as possible?” and yes, of course, you do. But let me make you very clear why I don’t sell options into earnings. If you have been following me for a while, you know that I love trading the Wheel, and as part of this strategy, we are selling options. Well you see, earnings plays are hit-and-miss. Sure, everybody can get lucky and most people who start trading expect their account to explode from one or two big trades. This is where we have some stocks that are jumping just dramatically. Looking at Intel, INTC over the last three earnings. Huge gap down right when we had earnings, then there was another earnings play, and Intel really crashed down hard again. Then also here during the last earnings season, initially, Intel went up but then started crashing down. You see, some people like these earnings plays because they believe the hype that they can make a lot of money with very little work involved, but see, trading just doesn’t work this way because, in reality, the key to becoming successful in trading is consistency and growing your account systematically. That’s what I mean when I talk about generating SRC profits, right? SRC is an acronym that stands for Systematic because I like to trade what I see and not what I think. This is why I use indicators and have a trading strategy that tells me when to trade, what to trade, when to enter and when to exit. The R stands for repeatable and by trading my plan, I’m able to find repeatable profit-making opportunities. The C in SRC profit stands for consistency. You see, I’d rather make slightly less money more often than biting off all my nails waiting for a big winner. As you know, part of my systematic approach to trading is to use The Wheel Strategy and the PowerX strategy. Now, especially with The Wheel strategy that, where I’m trading right now with you here, the idea is to get paid while you wait to buy the stock, and because I’m collecting premiums on the puts that I sell, I’m looking for stocks with higher volatility, right? This means making more money, and as a rule of thumb, I look for stocks with an IV, implied volatility, of at least 40%. The Wheel strategy can relatively safely produce profits, but I don’t recommend you to trade into earnings, at least that’s not what I do. So I will not target options with an expiration date that includes the company earnings report. I am trading options before we are running into earnings. So this is why I think it is very important that you know when trading options, whether it is buying or selling, that you don’t trade into earnings. At least that’s what I do because earnings are a wildcard and there’s just too much uncertainty. Remember, I’m not looking for fireworks here, I’m looking to systematically grow my account through consistent and repeatable strategies. Where To Check For Earnings Now, I want to give you two more resources, if you want to see for yourself who is reporting and when. These are two websites that are pretty cool that I personally use. So the first one here is “stock earnings.” If you go to stockearnings.com or they even have stocksearning.com, they will show you see the notable earnings that are coming up this week. Now, another one that many people like to use is earningswhispers.com. So that’s another great source for finding out when companies will report earnings because this way you can make sure that you’re not trading right into earnings. It’s always good to know when they report earnings if you have any open positions, whether you’re buying stocks or selling stocks so that you’re not caught off guard. So I hope that this helped you to see how earnings impact option prices and why I never sell options into earnings.

Emotions In Trading: Biggest Account KillerTrading is fun and every trader is happy when their trades move in the right direction, but when a trade goes against you, you will experience a lot of emotions: Fear, anxiety, regret, doubt, maybe anger… … and these emotions in trading can lead to some bad decisions that could kill your account. In this article, I’ll show you how to control your emotions in trading so that you become a more relaxed trader. 1. Recognize Your Emotions When trading, you WILL experience emotions. The main emotions are: Excitement Greed Fear Anger Frustration Let’s talk about these emotions and how to deal with them. Emotion #1: Excitement When trades are going in your favor, it’s natural for you to be excited. We all love to see “green” in the account, but here’s the problem with that: when trades are going in your favor, you may be too excited and take on more risk. I have seen this over and over again, especially when trading “The Wheel” options strategy. During the first few trades, traders are usually very careful. They do a great job in picking the right stocks, then they take a few good trades and their account is up nicely! All of a sudden, they get overconfident. It seems that the trading system can’t lose, and so they increase risk because “things always turn out for the best,” but that’s when trouble starts. You’re no longer looking for “the best” trades. You feel invincible and want to make as much money in a short amount of time as possible. You start trading with more & more risk, and start choosing stocks that you shouldn’t choose. Here are a few examples: TLRY, SPCE, WKHS, LABU The premium is attractive, and you thought: “I’ll be fine, and if not, I can fly a rescue mission like Markus usually does,” but then you get stuck in a trade, like some of you are. So please be careful when you experience excitement because it quickly leads to overconfidence, and the markets like to show overconfident traders who’s boss! Emotion #2: Greed Next on the list of emotions in trading is greed. Greed is okay as long as you don’t let it take over your trading. My P&L so far is $69,205 at the time of this writing: My goal is to make $15,000 per month, and thus far, I have made almost $70,000 in less than 4 months! I could get greedy now and say, “Why not $20,000 per month? Or $30,000?” But I am going to keep trading with discipline and make sure that my greed doesn’t get the best of me. Be humble! Be grateful for what the market gives you because if you are greedy and try to squeeze the last penny out of the markets, the markets WILL put you in your place! Emotion #3: Fear The next emotion on the list is fear. Fear is a natural human emotion that we all have. In trading, it’s easy to let fear take over because you can see your profits diminishing in front of your eyes! Here’s the problem with fear: it’s a very strong and powerful emotion that has the power to paralyze you, and cause you to have a bad day — a VERY bad day: You’re sitting in front of your computer all day staring at the “red” numbers — the unrealized losses. Your mind goes crazy because you’re already thinking about how bad your trading account will be when you realize all these losses. But what a difference a day can make. Have you ever realized how one day it looks bad, and the next day everything is green again? Here is what you should do when FEAR takes over: – Step away from the computer. Shut it down! Go outside. Do something else. – Take some deep breaths and relax. – Do not panic, this will cause you more harm than anything else! The market is always changing, it’s just out of our control; so instead of panicking, think about what we can control. Emotion #4: Anger Next on the list of emotions in trading is anger. It’s easy to get angry at the markets because it’s so unpredictable! You can never tell what is going on and when it will change. And why are there always losers? Dang, I should have bought 30 minutes ago… but now the price has gone up again?! Happened to me yesterday: Every single trade that I entered was timed wrong. I could have gotten a much better fill 30 min later! But: anger does not get us anywhere. Anger leads to revenge trading, which can lead to catastrophic losses. Keep in mind: Markets don’t know who you are. Markets don’t care who you are. Markets don’t know if you are in a winning or losing trade. Markets don’t care if you try to push them around. If you try to fight the markets, you’ll lose. It’s important not to let anger dictate your trades! Emotion #5: Frustration The last emotion on our list is frustration. It’s easy to get frustrated with trading for the same reasons that I just mentioned: You can never tell what is going on and when it will change. And why are there always losers? Dang, I should have bought 30 minutes ago… but now the price has gone up again?! Some people react to these events with anger, others with frustration. Frustration can lead to impulsive trading, and that’s not a good thing. The best way to deal with frustration is to take some time out from the markets for a few hours or even days until your head clears up. 2. Understand The Effect of Emotions While Trading In a moment, I’ll share a technique with you on how to control these emotions but let’s first talk about the effect of emotions on your trading. It’s ok to have feelings. It’s ok to feel these emotions — these are HUMAN emotions. The problems start when you ACT on these emotions while trading. As you have seen, each of these emotions is causing a reaction, and none of them is good. Emotions cause irrational behavior… … which leads to impulsive decisions, … which leads to and bad trades, … that often leads to losses or drawdowns. Emotions in trading can be the number one account killer, so you MUST be able to control them. 3. Control Your Emotions By using THIS technique I have been trading for 20 years, and I still feel these emotions. They say you shouldn’t have any emotions while trading, and based on my experience, that’s not possible! The important thing is to make sure that you don’t ACT on your emotions. So how can you control your emotions? Stephen Covey said it best in his book “The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People”: Focus on what you CAN control, and don’t worry about what you can’t control. And if you think about it, there are only 2 things you CAN control: Your Thoughts Your Actions You can’t control what the markets are doing, you can’t control whether Hindenburg Research is releasing a report on a company you’re in, you can’t control when a big hedge fund gets in trouble and has to dump a bunch of positions, but you can choose how you react. Let me give you a personal example: As you know, I am in RIDE . And the position is MASSIVELY going against me. I could be angry at short-sellers, especially Hindenburg Research. I could be frustrated with Lordstowns PR efforts, which suck. I could look at my unrealized loss every day and fear “What will happen it Lordstown doesn’t recover?” I could have a lot of negative emotions around it, and NOTHING would change — other than me getting bitter, and maybe even depressed. So I keep following my plan, which is selling more premium. This week, I will make $1,050 on RIDE , no matter what the price is doing. If it goes up, good. If it goes down… oh well, I can’t change that. I just know THIS: I won’t let emotions dictate my day, and I won’t let emotions dictate my trading. I believe the Serenity Prayer says it best: “God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I can, and wisdom to know the difference.“

SOYBEAN upward move play with Teucrium Soybean $SOYB trust fund (1) Futures Technical Analysis Bullish triangle with RSI breakout. Enought space for bullish move. s3.tradingview.com (2) SOYB trust fund I've skipped the futures instrument, because I'm not like options on futures. My choice for Soybean play is $SOYB with relative high IVR value. Optimal for Short Put Vertical strategy, similar TA here, with RSI pullback. s3.tradingview.com (3) Clear uptrend Higher Lows Higher Highs. s3.tradingview.com CONCLUSION: Max profit: $685 Probability of Profit: 55% Profit Target relative to my Buying Power: 47% Max loss with my risk management: ~$200 Req. Buy Power: $1320 (max loss without management at expiry, no way to let this happen!) Tasty IVR: 66 (ultra high) Expiry: 35 days Buy 10 SOYB May21' 20 Put Sell 10 SOYB May21' 22 Put Credit Put spread for 0.685cr each, because IVR is relative high. Stop/my risk management : Closing immediately if daily candle is closing BELOW the box, max loss in my calculations in this case could be 200$. Probability of loss in this way: ~25% . No stress above $21.1 level. Take profit strategy: 65% of max.profit in this case with auto sell order at 0.27db. Probability of profit this way: ~75%. Of course I'll not wait until expiry in any case! If you liked this article, check my other ideas.
