Bears Keep Pressure On

May 17th, 2012

9:00am (EST)

The bulls were looking to end a 3-session skid on Wednesday but a late day fade pushed the major indexes into the red as the bears extended their winning streak to 4-straight.

The Dow fell 33 points, or 0.3%, to settle at 12,598. The blue-chips made a trip to 12,722 but ended below our 12,600 target which opens the door for a test to 12,350. Resistance remains at 12,800 and then 13,000.

The S&P 500 slipped a six-pack, or 0.4%, to finish at 1,324. The index traded up to 1,341.78 but once again failed the 1,350 level and went out on its low for the session. The close below 1,325 was beautiful which now gets 1,300 on the bears’ radar.

The Nasdaq gave back 20 points, or 0.7%, to end at 2,874. Tech reached a peak of 2,913 but once again could not hold the 2,900 level as it too went out near its low for the session.

The Russell 2000 declined 5 points, or 0.7%, to close at 772. Next up 750.

The S&P Volatility Index (VIX, 22.27, up 0.30) held 20 and kissed 22.69. We have been mentioning the 22.50 level as the breaking point that could lead to accelerated selling pressure.

We have been warning of these levels since early April and we have said it would be a great time to short the market. Since then we have recommended 24-straight winning put option trades. We have several current trades that are up triple-digits and we are looking to lock-in a few more winners today.

Futures are showing a mixed open as we head to press and look like this: Dow (+9), S&P 500 (-1); Nasdaq 100 (-1).

We have a lot to cover so let’s get to the Members Area.

Bears Get Hat Trick

May 16th, 2012

9:00am (EST)

The bears won the third-straight session on Tuesday as lower highs and lower lows continue to be the common theme on Wall Street.

The Dow dropped 63 points, or 0.5%, to settle at 12,632. The blue-chips touched a high of 12,758 but fell short of clearing 12,800. The low for the day was 12,608 which we said could be tested this week. The Dow closed at 12,716 on the first of February and was at 12,632 on the January 31 close. If the 12,600 level falls, look for a test down to 12,350. (continued…)

Bear Gathering Momentum

May 14th, 2012

9:00am (EST)

Futures are showing a nasty open this morning following as the bears look poised to crack another layer of resistance.

Dow futures are down 90 points to 12,698 while the S&P 500 futures are off 12 points to 1,338. The Nasdaq 100 futures are showing a decline of 20 points to 2,590.

We have a lot of charts to go over inside our Members Area but we wanted to give you a quick update on our Arena Pharmaceuticals (ARNA, $6.36, up $2.70) trade from last week.

We have made some sweet calls on Biotech over the years and we can add Arena to the list following Friday’s good news. The FDA advisory panel voted in favor of approving Lorcaserin, 18-4, last week and the close above $3.50 on Wednesday at $3.66 was our clue that shares could surge from a chart standpoint. We said a run to $8 would be possible and shares hit $7.02 on Friday after being halted on Wednesday.

The 10-year chart shows longer-term resistance at $7 and then $8. We see shares zooming past $10 by June when Arena goes in front of the FDA which usually follows the recommendations of the advisory boards. Strong support is now at $5.

Our subscribers are up a whopping 250% on the July 3 calls (ARNA120723C00003000, $3.50, up $1.75) which doubled on Friday. Of course, we were in the trade before Arena became news as we were probably the only investment newsletter who said they would gain approval.

We are looking for further gains on this trade but our Hard Stop is place to protect our triple-digit profits.

We have several more trades that could be joining the TD club today so let’s go check the charts. Subscribers, hit the Members Area for this morning’s updates.

Arena Pharmaceuticals’ (ARNA) BIG Day

May 10th, 2012

1:00pm (EST)

Arena Pharmaceuticals (ARNA, $3.66, HALTED) could be set for a big move (pun intended) or could drop like a rock if shares open today for trading.

The company is giving a presentation today in Maryland on its obesity drug, Lorcaserin, and is trying to convince a FDA committee the drug is safe. Shares have been halted today, pending news, and could open before the closing bell.

If not, Arena could open above $5 or under $2 in extended trading tonight or on Friday morning.

Yesterday, BMO Capital upgraded Arena to “Outperform” from “Market Perform” and raised its price target from $1 to $7. Although this call didn’t make much since to us because their price target didn’t match the rating, we like it because we have an $8 near-term target on the stock and double-digits down the road.

BMO had a previous target of $1 for shares of Arena which should have made their previous rating a “Sell”, technically, as shares have held $2 for quite some time.

BMO must be reading our newsletter and changed their minds.

Here was our chart work on Arena from Sunday night:

Good news should push shares above $5 tonight in extended trading (if they open) or on Friday. More good news in June should get shares to $8-$10. Of course, if the panel gives a negative review, shares could easily fall back below $2.

Bears Push Support, Bulls Bounce Back

May 9th, 2012

9:00am (EST)

The bears pushed another layer of support on Tuesday after renewed worries about Greece and its potential exit from the eurozone caused some panic on Wall Street. The major indexes fell right down to the support targets we outlined in our Weekly Wrap/ Monday Morning Outlook and we said the market could remain in its current 6-week trading range until Thursday’s jobs report.

The market hit its lows shortly after our midday update but recovered in the last couple of hours to cut the losses in half.

The Dow fell 76 points and finished at 12,932 while the S&P 500 dropped 6 points to end at 1,363. The Nasdaq gave back 11 points to settle at 2,946.

We closed 4 more winning trades yesterday and 1 on Monday which ran our winning streak to 22-straight closed winning trades since late March. Two of the trades returned 576% and 180%, respectively, and we are now sporting an incredible 84-18 for 2012. We seriously doubt you will find a hotter option trading service and we have autotrading services that track our results as well.

If you are a busy professional and don’t have time to follow the market, you can have our auto-trading make the trades for you, in your own account!

We continue to tell our subscribers that the current market environment has provided an incredible opportunity to make quick, massive profits in as little as 24 hours. Seriously, they can happen that quickly.

Green Mountain Coffee Roasters Update

May 7th, 2012

1:00pm (EST)

We wanted to share one of our subscriber’s comments from the weekend who took one of our recent put option trade recommendations. As you may have heard by now, Green Mountain Coffee Roasters (GMCR. $24.67, down $0.43) shares were cut in half last week after the company missed Wall Streets revenue estimates and lowered guidance. The stock lost 50% of its value as shares fell from near $50 to $25 last week but trading options is way more profitable.

We profiled the May 35 puts (GMCR120519P00035000, $10.45, up $1.50) at 85 cents in mid-April and we were out at an average price of $5.75 for a 578% return. Some of our subscribers did much better and here are some snipets from a very cool email to our editor-in-chief.

Rick –

I have only been a member for about 6 weeks but I have done well on most of the trades.

I try to execute the trades that you recommend as soon as you send them out, sometimes I can’t and I miss the Entry price. However, sometimes when I miss the Entry, the price goes down and I get a better price. That’s exactly what happened with GMCR. You recommended it at around $.81 I think, but by the time I got to it, the price was $.27.

I bought 100 Puts on Wednesday May 2nd and sold half of them 24 hours later at $5.95 for a nice 2,203% gain. As per your recommendation, as GMCR went above $30 I sold the remaining 50 Puts at $5.50 for a slightly less 2,037% gain. On average, that one trade netted me a 2,120% gain, entirely based on YOUR recommendation (and a little bit of luck). To put this in real terms, I risked $2,700 on Wednesday and pocketed $54,550 just 24 hours later.

So uhh, let’s do that again real soon!!

Feel free to use my name. The tax guys have me on speed-dial already anyway.

Dennis from Canada

(END)

It’s emails like this that give us the best feeling as we love seeing our subscribers make money.

The bulls are holding support after a weak open. As we head to press, the blue-chips are down an unlucky 13 points to 13,025 but the S&P is higher by 2 points to 1,371. The Nasdaq is also up by a 6-pack and is at 2,962.

Bears Pushing Support

May 4th, 2012

11:50am (EST)

The bears got some good news this morning as nonfarm payrolls came up short.

The Dow is down 125 points to 13,080 while the S&P 500 is off 17 points to 1,374. The Nasdaq is lower by 52 points and is at 2,972.

We have been warning our subscribers of a pullback and we have been loading up on put options since the beginning of April.

We have closed 3 trades this week for gains of 576%, 41% and 50%. Our monster winner was a put option trade on Green Mountain Coffee Raosters (GMCR, $27.48, up $1.61) which is rebounding today following yesterday’s 50% haircut.

We recommended the May 35 puts (GMCR120519P00035000, $7.50, down $1.75) at 85 cents and we were out at an average price of $5.75 as we sold a half position at $6 and the other half at $5.50.

A 10 contract trade would have cost you $850 and would be worth $5,750 as you would have made $4,900 in profits. The beauty of the trade is that we did our homework, told you they would miss earnings, and the profits were locked-up in a little over two weeks.

If you are missing out on these types of juicy option trades, you really should give us a try. Our subscribers are making money hand-over-fist.

Investors get nervous when the market is tanking and we would guess over 70% of people who are in the stock market do not know how to play the downside. Don’t be one of them. You can make just as much money in down markets as you can in up markets. We have proved it with our 16th-straight winning put option trade which brings our 2012 Track record to 76-18 which is an astounding 80% success rate.

Bears Get Squeezed

May 2nd, 2012

9:00am

The bulls pushed resistance again on Tuesday as the Dow hit a fresh 4-year high but the gains were sliced in half by the closing bell following some short-covering.

The Dow added 66 points, or 0.5%, to finish at 13,279. The blue-chips traded to a low of 13,174 (-39) at the start but bounced to a high of 13,338 (+125) intraday after the better-than-expected ISM number. The bulls were able to hold the 13,200 level while making an attempt at 13,350. If cleared, our near-term 13,500 target from late January will become official.

The S&P 500 popped 8 points, or 0.6%, to end at 1,406. The index kissed a low of 1,395 but was able to reclaim the 1,400 level after reaching a peak of 1,415. We have mentioned a possible push to 1,425 on this current back test and our near-term targets from January were 1,425-1,450 if the 1,350 level was cleared. The 52-week high for the S&P is 1,422 which triggered at the beginning of April.

The Nasdaq advanced 4 points, or 0.1%, to close at 3,050. Tech touched a low of 3,041 and soared to a high of 3,085 (+39) before giving back most of its gains. The 52-week high is 3,134 (March 27) and we said in January with the Nasdaq at 2,905 if 3,000 were cleared the index could make a run at 3,250.

We have a lot more to talk about as far as our current trades and we were able to close our 14th-straight winning trade yesterday which brings our 2012 Track Record to 75-18, or an 80% win rate.

If you are not yet a subscriber, now is a good time to consider a membership as we are building positions for our next “batch’ of option trades.

First Solar Trade Update

May 1st, 2012

6:00am (EST)

We said we would give you an update on our First Solar trade which is approaching a 70% return as shares broke below $20. Here were our thoughts yesterday morning:

First Solar (FSLR, $18.35, up $0.04)

May 18 puts (FSLR120519P00018000, $1.50, down $0.10)

Entry Price: $0.90 (4/11/12)
Exit Target: $1.80 (closed half at $1.50 on 4/27/12)
Return: 67%
Stop Target: $1.30 (HARD STOP)

Action: We closed half of the May put options on Friday to lock-in profits ahead of the weekend. Shares hit another all-time low of $17.81 on Friday and we said once shares fell below $20 the downside spiral could accelerate. We have a near-term target of $15 for First Solar and shares could fall to the single-digits by the end of summer.

(END)

If you are not a subscriber, we urge you to act now as we are in the process of establishing our next batch of trades.

Deckers Misses Estimates, Shares Sink

April 27th, 2012

2:00am

Deckers Outdoor (DECK, $56.50, down $12.96) fell nearly 20% in extended-hours trading on Thursday after missing Wall Street’s estimates.

The company missed estimates by 5 cents after a warm winter hurt sales of its Ugg boots. DECK said profits were $7.9 million, or 20 cents a share, versus $16.9 million, or 49 cents a share, in the year ago period. Revenue topped $246 million. They also lowered full-year guidance.

The suit-and-ties were looking for 25 cents on sales of $245 million.

Shares should open at 52-week lows this morning. Even better, we have put options that should double if the losses hold up at the opening bell this morning!

We have called this market to a “T” as we said Wednesday morning before the open the Dow would test 13,200 with Tech pushing 3,050. The blue-chips closed 4 points above our target and we nailed the Nasdaq’s close exactly at 3,050.

Futures are trading lower on a downgrade of Spain’s debt. Imagine that.

The overseas markets open in about an hour and here is how we look. Dow futures are 39 points to 13,121 while the S&P 500 futures are off 5 points to 1,391. Nasdaq 100 futures are lower by 2 points to 2,718.

We could close our 4th and 5th winning trades for the week today which would get our overall track record to 76-18 for 2012 which is an 80% win rate. If you are not a subscriber, we would like to have you.
