 Welcome. This is Melissa Armo with the Stock Swoosh, and I wanted to review back from the expiration date of January 7th. I did do a beginner results of this. I wanted to do advanced trader results of this. I'm trying to do that more this year. Show higher risk and lower risk for people. And I did a video on beginner. I thought I did one in advance. I never did. So I'm doing this today. This allows you to see how you could be profitable and what trades you can take and at what risk. Again, win ratio is 75%. In this case, when you have an advanced risk, you can do all the trades. Sometimes with the beginner risk, some trades are priced out. If you have, for example, a thousand-hour risk per trade, you can't do an Amazon that costs 5,000. So I wanted to make sure to do this week because I'd done the prior week for advanced trader. And again, the beginner week of this week of expiration January 7th is on my YouTube if you want to go look at it. So let's review what happened here this week. So this was all the options called this week. Second week of the year, win ratio is 75%. And the advanced trader profits was $63,100. The average risk was $8,000 per trade. So let's go over it. Again, there were three winners, zero break evens, one loser, and four trades. And we'll go over exactly what the trades were in a minute. So advanced trader profit $63,100. You had to risk a total of $30,300 to take the positions then to make the profits. Again, you could have taken less risk. I do have that video on YouTube. Return in investment, 208%. You know, this is good. 75% win ratio is good. So these were all options called with an expiration date of 1-7. You don't hold every trade to the end of the day if the trade is up or ready earlier in the week. If the trade goes the day that I call it, you can get in, you can get out. Some do, some no. So that's up to you. But again, to hold to the very last day, which would have been the seventh year, you don't do that unless you're up so far through the strike that you think it's going to make it worthwhile. And I really, to be honest with you, don't do that. If I'm holding the last day, it's because I'm down in the trade. I was never up or I missed my exit and I'm looking for it to turn around. So let's go back here and look. This trade was called on December 29th. It was the 400 queues we did put this expire the 7th. So let's take a look at the 29th was here. Again, this was 2021. This was a put was a gap down close to your gap down fell, fell, fell, fell, fell, fell, fell. And again, this actually had some really nice follow through even here past the expiration date in this, but you could have gotten the trade got in and out before because it had the momentum to the downside. It was a put. It was called on the 29th and you would have exited here on the 6th. But I just want to show you it continued on the 7th and actually the movement, the direction I was calling the queues continue to even here on the following Monday if you would wanted to do it out longer. Now, typically if I'm calling something like again, I wouldn't call this a tight call for timing here, but it was over the holidays. So you could have given a little bit more of a cushion and you could have squeezed a little bit out of it. So the very last day of expiration again, not saying you should ever do that exit was here. The 6th, the day before this was profitable here. You can see it was through the stripe. You could even got out here. This fell all the way down here to 384. This low in here was 380. Again, 400 puts this down in here was 378. But look at where it went then it did go all the way down to 368 that actually went 32 points down from that initial move that I called. So you could have done it out an extra week. Sometimes you can look at the cost and make a determination for yourself if you want to give it an extra cushion. And in this in this type of environment quite frankly, I don't think that's a bad idea. I've been thinking about that myself. But for now, I'm going to continue doing what I'm doing. Cost was $3.90 per contract 20 contracts risk is 7800. Shoulded 18 profit 28,201 trade. You check it you waited got the drop got the movement again. This is about momentum. It's momentum in the gap in this case here was selling selling pressure to the downside returning investment 362% beautiful trade. Beautiful trade. And again, if you can't watch the trades to watch the targets would I which I do over the letter you can put an order out to sell it at whatever order you want at 50% 100% I tell people to watch it. But honestly, if you can't maybe you should just put in a sell order out after you take the trade. This was the Tesla 1150 calls we want long here. Did this on the third? Oh, here. Yeah, this was the beginning of the year. Close your gap gap rallied. Again, 1150 take it to the right up here. You can see exactly where I called it right up the stripe. This was the 1150s on the third expiring that day. You could have made again good profit 59% that these are expensive. So you might take parcels in these you could have got out of one held the rest but the rest would have gone bunk. But again, sometimes what I'm doing these really, really, really expensive ones really do have to watch what's happening with the market, because you really sometimes need the market and certain things particular things that you're doing. And again, since Tesla has been added to the SMP, I consider this really a market stock to watch that will go with the market. Cost was $39 to contracts 7800 risk sold at 62 profit 4600. You're in your out. This was one which you could have not have done if you had a beginner risk and didn't risk at least $3900 a trade. But it was in and out. That's okay. Sometimes if I'm calling it tighter expensive, I'll look at that or if I don't have the market with me or if I'm not sure if I'm going to have the market with me quite frankly, in fact, let's look at what the market did. I'm just go back and look at the third. Because I have this in here and I forget. Oh, there. Yeah, see. So this was that particular day. The market did go that day. But it failed to go up here. This was a baby rally. And then it dropped off. And then you can see Tesla. So you see what I mean here about this looks exactly like the market. But Tesla had a bigger rally than the market on that day and the third, which is why the trade went at least a 50%. But it reached the target. And I'm gonna go back here. The target was 1200. Again, the targets are on the letter. Then what was the next one? The spy 480 calls. So the following day with the baby rally and the third, this was the last day actually that the spy made a new high. The cues have not made a new hide all this year in 2022. The spy did it was on January 4. We gapped up here called the train called it out for next ratio to seventh should have gone should have gone should have worked didn't do it. This is the last high in the in the spy for 2022 was last time it made a high. That's hard to believe. So we did the 480 calls and this was the one that lost it. It was up a little bit. I shouldn't say that it was up a tiny little it was up a little bit in the day. From the time that I called it was up a little bit. But then it just didn't follow through. So this was one that was a 0% return investment that you could have held down again, it could have come back, but it didn't. Here was the drop. And again, it wasn't going to make it. But that was the last hide the market. Interesting looking back at these now. Then we did the Netflix 580 puts called one seven. I mean expired one seven called one four eggs and on the six again in and out sometimes this could be price is sometimes a good price and he's depending on when you're doing them. Here was the one. No, let me go back to the fourth here. Close here. Got the drop boom, boom, boom, again. Here we are. Here's a drop. Come on down. And again, this one you could have held the last day. Again, I don't think that makes any sense to do when it's up, which this was here. It was even up here. But again, this continued this continued down broke 540. This was a nice one. So it was a 580 puts $5 contract, which is really not bad for Netflix 15 contracts. Again, advanced trader risk, which is around $8,000 a trade, or you can risk less 7500 risks sold at 30 in out beautiful 500% return investment. Why? Again, 37,500 profit on a 7500 risk, you can divide that by four or five six, you can take one contract. Again, I have the beginner trader risk on another slide where it was two contracts for 1000. But the point is that you could have made 500% return investment. It never it never did anything wrong. That's why what there's like no management needed here. People ask me, well, how do you know when to get out want to put the tablets in the letter to if you can watch it, you put the sell order in at a return investment where you're conservative at 50% or 100% to see if it gets filled and watch it. But I think people should learn how to read the charts right and I think people should be looking at the charts. And when you have the momentum in your direction here, again, you couldn't have screwed this up. This trade was a positive trade. You couldn't have screwed it up. It went from the time I called it and just went plot. Now, while this does not happen in every single trade where the second I call it it goes and it goes straight down or straight up. In this case here, it did. It did. In fact, like I said, it actually continued the very last day. Not that anyone should hold there. So really nice, beautiful, beautiful call in the Netflix. And we have trades like that this year. We have we have so many trades this year. It's so many ridiculous, ridiculous return investments. It's because of the fact that they're there. If they're there, I'm going to see them. I'm going to see them in the gap in the breeding. Anyways, if you'd like to sign up for the golden gap course, you can email me for upcoming dates.
