 Everyone and welcome. This is Melissa Armo with the Stock Swoosh and a Reviewing Tessa, which was the Gap of the Week last week, not this week, which I will review for you. So we've had a fantastic start to the year in 2022. Why? There's been a lot of opportunity. As an individual trader, when you have opportunity, you must strike. You can't hesitate at all. That is the way you're going to make money. And particularly in this type of market, again, the opportunity is just all over the place right now. But I try to find the best Gap every single day, which of course I did with Tesla. If you'd like more information on doing options with me, you can email me at MelissaTheStockSwish.com or you can call me at 929-3200 Gap if you have questions or you can follow me on Twitter, Facebook, YouTube or Skype. So you can make money trading options with the right strategy. I use my Golden Gap Strategy and Golden Gap System to make the picks for the options newsletter. Tesla was an option. There were two trades. I will show them to you in a moment. So this is a subscription where you receive the newsletter emailed to you in live time. I am doing the work in the pre-market to go through the system, all the 26 points to go through it. So it makes it really easy for you because you just do the picks. If you want to learn the system, that's in the Golden Gap course. I have a mix in the letter, to be honest with you. Of all the subscribers I have, some have done the class, some have not. So you don't have to take the class in order to make money. I think the people that have taken the course actually do better because obviously they have more confidence in themselves. They know what we're looking at. They have the conviction they can rate the gap themselves. But some people, quite frankly, do not have time to take the class, which is on a weekend. They don't have an interest in learning. It's really whatever works best for you. And then I also have people that sign up for the newsletter do well, make money, and then do the class after that. I had a bunch of people do that in the February course because they made so much money in the month of February that they paid for the annual subscription for the newsletter and the class and still made money after that. So again, it's been a very profitable time. TASA was a good gap. TASA can be an expensive option to trade. The price points of what do I call? It depends. Some I call it the strike. Some I call away from the strike. Some are expensive like TASA, Amazon, or Google, and some are very reasonably priced. So it really depends on what we're doing, what direction, again, how early we're able to get in it, and how far out I'm doing it. Now I'm typically doing the week lease. It depends on the day of the week that I'm calling it, but we're not date trading options. I want to be clear about that. So while the trade may call, if I call a trade on a Monday, it may go. You can get out before the close. Not every trade will do that. Some will, some won't. How do you know? You've got to watch it. And if you can't watch it, then you have to put a sell order, which is a limit order, cancel order, day order, right after you take it. So you can make money if you have the right strategy. The problem is a lot of people don't. I find that options are very advantageous to do for stocks like TASA because we're not date trading TASA. I'm not doing TASA as an equity trade. It's expensive, very spreading, wide stops, everything. In reference to the overnight moves, you also have the benefit of capturing the overnight moves and gaps too, which is again, watch rating options is very advantageous and you only have at risk the cost you pay for the option, whatever it is. So if you pay a buck, you can't lose more than a buck, no matter what happens. So everything that I do is based on my golden gap strategy and my golden gap system. I created this a long time ago. It took me three years. I started trading in 2008. I thought I was going to be able to figure it out in six months. That didn't work out that way. Like many things, many big goals you have, sometimes it takes longer than you think, but it doesn't mean you can't get there. The best thing you can do is to get on the stick, start trading. Even if you have a small account, you can grow it. People have been doing that with me too. I have a lot of people that have been on the letter since last summer, not quite a year, but they've really grown their account since then in that time. Again, it's baby steps. I call it chunking it out, particularly if you have a small account. Now let's take a look at Tessa. So let's just go back to the beginning of the year. Tessa closed here, gapped up, rallied. This was January 3rd. Hard to believe. The price was taken to the right. See where it was? Way, way, way, way, way over $1,000 a share. We haven't seen that number for quite some time. So let's go to the left here. The last time this price was at that point was back in January. We're in March. And the low last week was $700. So you can see that this has taken a tumble, but the market has two. So it'll be interesting to see where this stock goes. It's still in the uptrend. It's still very strong. We've been shorting it. We've been doing puts. They're working. But again, this is still a very strong stock in an uptrend. So you've got to get the timing right with these trades, or you'll get clobbered because again, it's strong. It's bullish. People do love to buy Tessa. I have a new format. I started with the letter. People are loving this. It's really pretty. My assistant actually created this. So the symbol is here. Tessa was the 850 strikes was the one trade expiration date 225, which I called on 217. Now, this was a little bit later in the day. Let's go to 217. Here. So again, take it over. Boom. So this was one where I was looking forward to drop into the strike and through and it did. So again, beautiful sell off every day. Every day it sold off. It put is a short. And then the gap down here was amazing right before the day of expiration. Huge beautiful move. And again, this is the money move. This is the sell off. This is what you want to get. So this was, I wouldn't say cheap, but cheap for Tessa considering we were in it early. Okay. 1550 for one contract. Five contracts is an advanced trader risk. You can take one at risk 1550 $1,550 if you're allowed. Your risk must be consistent per trade risk 7715 sold at 125 profit $54,750. It's a returning investment of 707%. Can you get trades like this? Doing options, absolutely, absolutely, absolutely. So again, as I was saying earlier, one of the benefits of doing options is capturing overnight moves. Like you couldn't have made this, let me just go back to the chart in one day. It's, well, I mean, I guess theoretically you could have the stock can drop very hard at one day if you've got the market with your power training or something. But again, it's the nice flush that you get consecutive, consecutive days dropping, dropping, dropping, beautiful. And then this was a gap down that happened from here to here. So again, you get out right into the open. Everyone moves up a lot of money. It's a no brainer. And again, it expires the previous day. So you should never hold anything to the last day unless you're down in it and you want it to turn around and come back. If you're up and it shouldn't hold it to the last day unless it's so far through the strike, which actually this would not have been. So you can't let profits run against you. That's for sure. When you're getting close to the expiration, you've got to watch it. But a really nice trade. Let's look at the beginner risk. Again, one contract I said 1550. I mean, to get anything like that with three numbers in front of it is just amazing. And we have trades like this. Profit 10,950 with one contract, again, one. You don't have to take some crazy sides and you can still make money. It has to do with the system, the strategy, the picks, the momentum. This is momentum, return on investment 707%. That's how you get it. Momentum. How do you get a big risk reward on this momentum? Should you hold every trade for a big piggy move? No. You have to pick the good ones. So Tesla was something I liked. I loved. Again, that's why we did two trades in it. Okay. So let's go to the second trade here, 222, called the 800 puts, drop, drop, drop. So I was going to go there, so 222, I call this really tight, 225 expiration. This was like from Tuesday to Friday, 222 is here, boom, get the drop, drop, boom. So here was the day, fell, fell, fell, boom. This one was a little pricier. That's okay. Four contracts, 7600, sold at 80, profit 24,400, still a huge trade, 321% return investment. And again, to take it and to get in and get out and get the move, again, Tuesday to Friday, you know, we're looking for momentum. That's what I'm looking for when I'm calling them. If you wanted to do one, again, one contract, 321% return of investment, 6100 profit, boom, boom, boom. So again, where are you getting out, right into the open when it goes like it did. And this is something where, again, a putt is a short, go back, a putt is a short. So again, we're looking for the momentum to fall to the downside, selling shorting action red. That was the drop off that happened here, boom, into that last week of February. We're now in March, but this was last week. That's why it was a gap of the week. So it's about focusing on being profitable. This isn't a big part of trading. Again, you can't hold every train to a piggy target, but you can pick and choose which ones to do that. You'll know that I like something when I have the big targets in the letter, when I'm calling multiple trades in it, or if we're day training in the room and doing as an option. Many, many things. Or just ask me, you know. So this was the case where obviously we had the market with us. And so this really, really went. But the key is to make money. Not every trade wins. There are some losers on the newsletter. So you have to size yourself accordingly. For over an 80% win ratio year-to-date, it's been a fantastic year. Like I said, two months were into the third month of the year. So you've got to continually be booking money and constantly chunking it out. But you can hold some to bigger targets because you will get some for the amazing, amazing moves on this. And again, you didn't have to take a big risk in this. You could have taken one contract. And again, your stop is basically what you risk. You can't lose any more than that. If you did the one Tesla, you couldn't have lost more than $1,550 even if it reversed. It didn't. It didn't. It worked since the day I called it, but you couldn't have lost. It's all about taking calculated risk. You determine that based on your sizing, the size of your cash account, also making sure you are making money booking it. Not over trading. Again, it's an active letter. If you don't want to do both Teslas, do one Tesla, meaning two trades in one thing. You have to take it step by step. Not everybody's at the same place. Think of the way the world is. You'll say, oh, I'll trade money. This much money. This much money. Listen, everyone wishes they were a billionaire. That's not the case. So you have to look at where you are at with your life and figure out what you can do to get somewhere, to move forward. Start trading with the cash that you have. So if you want to join the newsletter and get the next big Tesla trade, there are two choices. The GAP Options newsletter annual subscription for 12 months, which is $15.99 a year. 12 months for the date signed up, taking it to 2023. And the half-annual subscription, which is $6 months, $49.99 for six months. Again, a six-month period. Newsletters are emailed to the sniffer-represents. You don't have to have any taken any classes to sign up. There are no trials. No trials. And if you want to sign up, you must email me for the sign-up forms. It's a great letter. People have been very successful in getting lots of nice emails from people this year, but highlighting them also in the marketing list too. I'm here if you have questions. I'm here if you want to email me to sign up. I know some people have been following me for quite a long time and asking me questions about this, and they've really just missed chances and opportunities to take the trades and make money because they haven't signed up. I think this is something where if you want to trade, you just sign up and you do it. Many people are doing well and you should think of it as a long-term picture, but a lot of people have made the cost of leaving the annual subscription in a very short period of time, several trades or a week. It's up to you depending on how much you risk, but it shouldn't be your goal. Your goal should be to actually sign up for a service where you can actively trade and be profitable and do it. You will learn something by being on the letter, but you really learn in the class. So, like I said, a lot of people have ended up doing the class after the fact once they realize that the gap system works, which they can see for their own eyes when they're seeing how the trades are moving. It's about gaps. It's about momentum. We do go along. These were punts, but we will do calls, too. I do do calls, so don't think we just short. I do have an itch for shorting, but it also allows me to see really when we're going to go higher in anything, a stock or whatever. Earning season for the next quarter doesn't start till April, but we're in such a volatile period right now with so many opportunities particularly because of the things that are happening across the world, across the globe. It's made for some great trades. Again, volatility is your friend if you're trading in the right direction and if you hold the conviction and know what to do. Email me if you'd like to sign up. Email me if you have any questions. Have a great day, everyone.
