 Hello there everyone and welcome. This is Melissa Armo with the stocks portion of reviewing BA. BA was the GAP option newsletter of the link This was so far the biggest trade we've had this year all around biggest options trade and biggest day trade I called the 245 puts in BA on January 3rd and the trade gap down on the Monday, January 8th And went $20 through 20 points to the straight So this was over a 500% return investment and again you actually Could still be in this you would still be up if you were in this here the stocks trading at 228 and change I mean this is crazy again. It doesn't expire till the 12th But I don't know why you'd still be in this yesterday the low of the day was run 223 and change again So that was more than 20 points for the strike yesterday You must book profits in trades like this and again, I include the targets in the letter I even include when I call the piggy targets or the dream targets in the newsletter I had 230 actually as a dream target in this I mean I got it right and actually broke 230. So to me the exit the correct exit was really Monday You can't look a gift horse in the mouth when you get a trade like this It just goes huge overnight in the gap. You got to book the money. You can take another trade So anyways long story short This was a massive trade for anybody that did it The cost to the option was around $3 which for something at this price point at this stock I think is cheap and again We did it last week and then one of the benefits of doing options is you capture the move overnight So if you're in a pot and the stock gaps down and it's through the strike like this You get a huge straight if you're in a call and it gaps up you get a big move to the upside So again, one of the interesting things about trading is that with options you have a limited risk You have a fixed risk. So even if somebody goes against you overnight if it doesn't go in your favor All you can lose is the amount that you have raised to the trade It's not like in a swing trade where people can really lose their shirts because if you're in a swing trade You essentially have no stop. You can say well, I want to get out here. Yeah Well, what if the gaps against you huge big or anything at all? You may not have time to get out You don't because of the gap in the case here though and again, this is one of the reasons I love doing options the option worked in our favor in our favor So you get up in the morning. You didn't even do anything at all if you were in this trade You were up huge. It was a nice surprise and a beautiful gap on Monday morning My expectation was that this would fall And again, the trade was up the day that I called it then it reversed then it had the gap on Monday So everybody that did this made money and Again, you had to be on the options news letter to get the trade But this really was so far the biggest trade of the year and again, I was early in the trade I'm typically M early in trades. So this was one three Okay, did the two forty fives had the move here on Monday gap down and open at two twenty eight dropped Over the day was two twenty five seventy nine and again I think I think the exit really was a good exit here You could have made more money if you got out yesterday and again You're still up if you're still in this here and this could be lower tomorrow We'll see but again, I think you got to be out of this, but we'll be watching this We'll be watching many things earnings season starts Friday. So I'm gonna be focusing on earnings That's gonna be my major major major focus. This was not an earnings gap It was news, but we were in the train Before him and that's what made this so profitable. Did I know there would be a news event on this over the weekend? No, no, I didn't but I read the gap I rated the gap again I use my twenty switch six point rating system and that's what you'll learn in the golden gap course if you take the class with me It's a paid class that I teach once a month. I've already had people signed up It's the end of January January 27 28th But you just want to get the trades and sign up for the newsletter You can sign up today get tomorrow's trades and just take the trades I think people trade better if they know what we're looking at a hundred percent But some people don't care and they just want to get the trades So this was the biggest trade of the year so far 2024 BA and Congratulations to everybody that did it more than a 500% return on investment We'll be watching the BA, but I'm mostly watching earnings season which starts Friday It is the most profitable time to trade and I can't wait If you're interested in signing up for the gap options newsletter email me and Melissa at the stocks wish calm Have a great day everyone
