In 1 Day, 127% Profit On AAPL And I Told You To Follow Along

Posted on by Trader Travis

Follow up on yesterday’s video! If you didn't catch the video, you can see it here.

Yesterday I showed you how you can benefit from a fall in a stock's price. I showed you how a PUT option can help put profits into your portfolio, when many others are simply shying away from the market.

I also mentioned at the 6:25 mark, "You watch Apple and see if it did in fact fall in price after 7/8/15. Cause I don't want you to believe me about the accuracy of MarketClub. I want you to believe your results. Trust but verify. You put this to the test yourself."

I used the Trade Triangles and the 10 Minute Options Strategy (you can learn the strategy for yourself here) to buy 120 put options at $0.93. I made 127.42% on this trade in one day. I executed my position and put an easy $592 into my pocket.

Profits like this aren't a fluke. When you have the right tools at your disposal, you're going to win many more trades like this than you lose. I'd highly suggest that you watch this 10 Minute Options Strategy video and learn how to start seeing results like this for yourself!

Can An Old Chinese Custom Save Greece?

Posted on by The INO.com Team

It seems like this weekend is crunch time for Greece and the EU. At first I thought it was inevitable that Greece would exit the euro... Now I'm not so sure and it all has to do with Face.

In Chinese culture, nothing is quite as important as the concept of Face. Face represents a person's reputation and feelings of prestige within multiple social circles, including the workplace, family, friends, and society. This perhaps is the one of the most difficult concepts for most Western societies to understand.

Gaining and losing Face is serious business and could be why the EU and Greece may resort to a Face-saving solution. Greece will get what it needs (53 to 55 billion dollars) and the EU saves Face by keeping Greece in the euro zone.

So in my opinion, the whole EU deal rests on Face and not on billions of dollars. We should see this tragic, comedy of errors play out this weekend and be settled. Certainly the markets would like that to be the case.

Just talks of a solution was enough to rally the markets overnight and going into the weekend it's going to be very important to see where these markets close. Continue reading "Can An Old Chinese Custom Save Greece?" →

Slip Slidin' Away

Posted on by George Yacik

George Yacik - INO.com Contributor - Fed & Interest Rates


The Federal Reserve's interest rate liftoff schedule for this year is slowly but surely slip slidin' away, like a space launch aborted by bad weather. It makes you wonder which government agency is directing U.S. monetary policy, the Fed or NASA.

The minutes of the Fed's June 16-17 monetary policy committee meeting released July 8 were a lot more dovish than the announcement that immediately followed the meeting. It now looks like a September rate liftoff isn't as baked in the cake as many previously believed just a few weeks ago.

Since then, of course, a lot has changed, almost all of it conspiring against an early rate increase. September is a lot less likely to happen now, and even December looks doubtful. I didn't think the Fed was courageous or confident enough to make a move this year anyway, so the events of the past few weeks make me more comfortable with that position.

Why I Don't Worry About A 200 Point Dow Drop

Posted on by Trader Travis



Update 7/10/15: See how I used the Trade Triangle I saw on AAPL (mentioned in this video) to double my investment in 1 day. - See Video Update

Yesterday was a strange day for the markets. Not only did we have the major glitch in the NYSE, but the big three indices took major hits, with the Dow Jones sliding more than 200 points, its lowest closing since February.

But, that really doesn't bother me. In fact, I'm surprised just how many traders don't realize that they can make as much (if not more!) during major market sell-offs, then when the markets are on the up-and-up. My students and I actually look forward to market days like this.

In this video, I'm going to show you exactly how you can make money when the market is going down or sideways. Yes, everyone knows you can make money when the market is going up... but knowing what to do during market sell-offs could take you off the sidelines and into a profitable position.

I'm also going to show you how to protect yourself from losses and put a cap on how much money you could lose with "stock insurance."

That's why I don't worry, because I know that a triple-digit Dow Jones loss could be a possible double-digit gain!
