 Welcome. This is Melissa Arma with the Stock Swooshing. I'm doing a review of this week's options trades on the gap options newsletter Using an advanced trader risk, which is what I risk. Of course, you could risk less If you want to take a $500 risk or $200 risk or $300 risk or even more than I'm risking you can do that It depends on the size of your account. And again, how many trades do you want to take? This was an average week for us The win ratio was 83% total profits. This is with an average risk of $8,000 per trade And again, that's a lot. This is an advanced trader risk You do not have to risk that much, but the total profit is $68,400. So let's go over this week's trades If you have any questions, you can obviously email me at Melissa at thestockswish.com You can call me at 929-3200-GaP. You can always follow me on Twitter, Facebook, YouTube or Skype And again, one of the reasons that I love trading is because or trading options specifically It's because you can capture overnight moves And we did that this week and a few of the trades that ended up being huge winners But everything that I do is based on my golden gap rating system. If you understand what I do I think it helps you make more money But if you don't and you just want to take the trades You could literally take the trade buy the put for example and then put a sell order at 50% Walk away from it. If it hits it's a limit order It'll hit before four if it doesn't you're in the trade overnight If you don't really want to micromanage your trades looking for the targets That is what I suggest if you're busy if you're working if you're doing something else during the day Now I'm here. I'm looking at my charts and even if I'm not I always have my phone with me and Anybody can look on their phone and people now are training from their phone event putting orders in But I do have targets in the newsletter. So I have I put targets in the newsletter that helps you focus on When you should be looking to get out So this week this particular week that expires today Was a good week. So we had six trades one loser five winners and again 83% win ratio I hope that this coming week we have lots of trades and I hope everyone is a winner We'll see earnings season begins this week coming up And so the banks start reporting on July 14th It'll be exciting time to trade to really see how the financials act During this earning season But if you're interested in trading with me now is a good time to get involved because of the fact that it's earning season soon So there's lots of gaps and lots of big movers the biggest trade this week actually was an earnings trade So this is with an advanced trader risk of $8,000 per trade profits this week 68,400 Again, I'm looking to have a big month this month. So we're off to a good start here And it's particularly since this was a holiday week I'm thrilled about the ones that we had that were movers. So on Monday, we did Tesla the 240 puts This went pretty quickly again. I try to send the trades out before the open if I can Sometimes I'll say something later and send it but most of the trades I'd say 85 90% of the trades are sent in the pre-market cost of Tesla was 550 15 contracts cost 8250 again your risk should be similar on every trade. This is not an exact science do your best Again, I'm usually getting the trades pretty fast profit $6,750 and again, this was a return on investment at 82% so let's take a look at the chart This close here gap down rally dropped again This was on Monday the 26th with an expiration of the 7th. So sometimes I will You know do the weekly sometimes I will do two weeks It really depends how I'm looking at the stock Looking at the move how I'm looking at the market and also because we have a holiday. So when we have a holiday time I'm trying to focus on What is the best way to price it out? Knowing that we could be slow over the holiday. This ended up going right away You know, you know, you don't always have that I'd say in best case scenario Everything goes the day that I call it or within 24 to 48 hours But that's not the case in every trade to be honest with you So this was one of the ones that went pretty fast and and it's amazing looking back now the price of this today Compared to where it was the day that I called it Tessa starts out has earnings I believe it's in July it's at the beginning of earnings season So we'll be interesting to see really how this ends up reporting if the continues higher Or if this breaks down again CBS was a loser this week while this could drop again today I don't think it's gonna go right. I killed it yesterday If you want to hold it into the last day, you can it could have turned around it just never worked right I don't know why you did it. It just didn't so I sent this on the Tuesday the 27th to 68 puts it expired today Again, you could still be in this trade. I stayed a little bit yesterday got out of it I did not take more than 60 contracts of this though because I thought something was off with the pricing So I could have actually taken about 15 20 more But I I didn't like the way that was priced. I did the trade. I Should have just killed it actually looking back now. It just it should have gone the first day I'm thinking about it. Let's look at the chart. There was something wrong with the price of that It should have been it should have cost more But actually I mean I look at the second day Yeah, I mean this should have gone here, but then the next day this looked good And then it was really day three and I don't remember what that was worth day three I don't a day three. I don't even think I could have got out of it with half Maybe I don't know I didn't though, but anyways this lost This lost no matter what you did with it and some people do kill the trades with a half loss You got to watch them then if you're doing that I don't but if you want to be tight and micromanaged trades that don't work the first 24 to 48 hours You could kill it a half loss or you could just kill them or if it's just down half You could kill it again. I do not do that But if you want to be tight with your money management, you could By do was a good one that we did on Thursday June 29th. We did the 135 puts again nice Solid mover in the buy do a pretty cheap to to 25 40 contracts risk was 9,000 sold at 380 profit was $6,200 again in and out 69% return investment I think 50% is a good return in investment if you're consecutively Consecutively booking winners there are some trades that I hold from I hold for more based on the gap rating and Based on other things too like the market, which we're gonna talk about in a couple here coming up But this was a nice trade That this is probably still lower, but anyways close to your gap down fell Boom went through the strike went through the strike that I did a day that I called it and again Time of the day was before the open So as long as you're at your desk before the open to get the trades We're doing that day You can set it up get ready to do the orders and take them in the first five ten fifteen minutes of the day I try to get in pretty quickly. I will say that I'm not messing around like I'm not doing this an hour after the open Okay Nike was the big one though for the week. Nike was earnings Nike was good I knew Nike was good when I got up in the morning and rated the gap at 641 a.m I sent the trade out on Friday the 30th even into a holiday week I knew this was a great gap and it went huge. So we did the one-on-nine puts everybody made money in this that did it Costs was so cheap 75 cents. I I think you could have even paid Like 30 or 40 on that day again. I got in pretty pretty quick because I knew I liked it And you just don't know how fast it's gonna go Anyways 100 contracts with the risk of 7500 sold at 475 was insane was an insane trade It's probably still even falling today I mean, it's just you you would still be up money in this today the last day But I don't know why I'm always still be in it profit was $40,000 of the 7500 on a risk 533% return in investment for an aching why was this so good number one the gap rated extremely well Remember, I have a sliding scale of 26 points being the best rated gap 20s a cutoff But the higher the rated gap the better the mood number two this trade worked the second it came out and every single day We're up in it followed through and again My take on the market for this week, you know prior to today I saw what happened this morning with the icon out prior to today My take on the market for this week was that we would fall Fall over the holiday week the Noah's gonna be buying this market into the holiday week So again if you get the help of the market, you can hold something for a larger move again Whether it's a put or a call in the case of Nike was a put so this was a really nice mover work The first day the second day the third day the fourth day and again today. This is still up It's just so far through the straight so nice to see this in a precursor to earnings season. What a fabulous gap and In fact, I'm gonna probably watch that next week Then we did a video which was a 425 calls. This is rallying today. I don't know what this is worth today But I'm already out of this Call this on Friday the 30th at 10.02 Cops with six dollars 15 contracts nine thousand dollar wrist sold at 950. It was a good trade in and out being bamboo Didn't go as fast as I wanted to but it's still rallying today. And actually I wanted a pop in it That's why I wanted I wanted a pop. I got the pop and then I got out here was the day I did it stop close here gapped up rallied Here was the 30th here was the day before the holiday when the market was dead And then the pop came after and then it went through the strike and I exited it But this is rallying today. So I don't know where this is gonna go today I did not do one of the new today going into a weekend for the holiday week But this was up this morning and it was well through 425 So this this might be worth more than I got out of it today. I don't know but it's it's it was a nice move or Then the next big trade after Nike was mew for the weeks and 63 puts and I did this late I did it's a 12 o'clock on Friday. I should have called this before the open I was so busy and I just didn't even see it and then I saw it. I said, oh my god This is gonna go. So we did it. I said, this is gonna rock and roll 90 cents was a cost for this a hundred contracts risk was 9,000 solar 240 This trade was a big trade and again Nike was the biggest this week But a profit of 15,000 a risk of 9,000 is an awesome trade awesome trade half this if you would risk $4,500 and taking 50 contracts You would have made $7,500. I didn't look and see what this is doing here today, but a beautiful beautiful winner and again Called it here Get out of it on the Thursday again when you're up that much in a trade that able for the expiration You never know something could turn around, but this was Not as far through the strike as Nike, but still far enough for the strike that I didn't want it You know miss the profit And again a good trade a fabulous trade So for the week of July 7th this week when ratio was 83% there were five winners Zero break even one loser and six trades average risk per trade was 8,000 and again profit 68,400 and the average return on investment including the loser was a hundred fifty two percent again There are weeks where we do 10 trades 20 trades 15 trades more than six, but considering the fact it was a holiday week I was thrilled thrilled with the results this week. So, you know, you will have busier weeks in this I don't know if we really have any slower weeks on this I mean probably five six trades a week is on average, but I mean there are definitely weeks We have busier weeks in this, but it was a very profitable week.

It's July 22nd at 23rd You will learn the entries you'll learn the targets to learn the exits and you'll learn my rating system Ultimately training is about making money and as crazy as it sounds to make money be busy in the summer We are July and August are a busy time to trade I say you have to chunk it out You should not hold every trade to a piggy target You should also not get it out of every trade too fast in my opinion if you're new in your beginner And you've been losing and you're making money you want to get out of things quick fine You got to hold some things but not everything. Okay, and again, that's the benefit of doing the class You learn that if you want to trade for a living part-time or full-time I said start out with the options newsletter start making money with a newsletter Prove to yourself that my system works and you're making money doing it. You'll see you'll see the moves You'll see if you get out of something too early and you're like crap I should have held it or if you didn't do a trading or like, oh my god, I should have done it Like a couple people email me they didn't do them you I don't know why but they didn't and it worked And it was a good trade and they missed out on the money But making money is a big big part of trading. So think about it think about what you want to do. It's all about profits and Of course financial freedom if you're interested and you want to learn how to take care of your own finances and yourself And you have to take charge of your own money and you can't trade the market really without help But one of the benefits is that you can trade from home or work So if you want to learn my system, it's called the golden gap The golden gap system is a 26 point professional bearish gap rating system The purpose of the system is to help you evaluate which gap to trade each morning using a checklist This checklist tells you what to trade when and what direction the 26 point checklist predicts direction bias and a stop So that's the meat and potatoes of my class Really the value in it and if you want to join you have plenty of time to plan It's July 22nd to 23rd two weeks from now.
