Today is Day Two for the All Star Charts team hosting our Portfolio Accelerator event in New York City.

During our group conversations today, Strazza and I put our heads together and put on this trade in Snowflake $SNOW.

Hey folks...

The entire All Star Charts team is presently in NYC hosting our Portfolio Accelerator event. So I will skip the preamble and get right to the point for today's trade in $TSM...

[Options Premium] This Would Be a Logical Place to Rocket From

January 19, 2024

The housing sector continues to perform well, and it makes sense that companies in the mortgage business should come along for the ride.

One of those names had a big push into the end of the year, and then had a monster pull back to start 2024. We think this reversal may be a bit overdone and the stock is now at a level where we can take an advantageous position with minimal downside from here.

[Options Premium] Adding a Little Short Exposure

January 12, 2024

Don't let today's headline scare you. I'm still bullish overall.

But with the S&P500 still bumping its head against overhead resistance, it wouldn't hurt to provide a little ballast for a mostly long portfolio here.

So with this in mind, I'm putting on a bearish trade in a stock that has not been participating in this bull market, and will likely continue to push lower as long as the broader indexes keep struggling here.

[Options Premium] Encino, Man

January 8, 2024

Sorry if today's blog title is a dated, obscure movie reference. I can't help myself sometimes.

But today's setup is no joke. We've got a stock that's a little off the mainstream path, which makes me like it even more. Stocks like this, which few have heard of, can sometimes quietly move higher. And then this slowly draws more attention (and buyers) to it, which helps our position.

So let's get to it.

[Options Premium] Snapback Rally

January 5, 2024

I'm showing my age here, but I've never used the social media platform Snapchat. Nor do I have any plans to do so.

But I'll happily trade options in the stock when there are favorable setups. And we have one now.

Let's get right to it.

[Options Premium] This Trade is Lab Tested

December 22, 2023

The bull market continues, and the broadening out of participation continues to widen. Today's trade is in a Chemicals company that is beginning to show some relative strength and has two upside targets that could potentially be met, if conditions cooperate.

We'll reduce our position as the closer target, and hold the rest for a run at the big prize!

[Options Premium] Southern Copper is Heading North

December 18, 2023

One of the things we like to do repeatedly at All Star Charts is position ourselves in leading stocks in leading sectors. Just writing that out may sound completely obvious to some, but too often I see traders trying to get cute to find the "undiscovered gems" that will be the next big winner.

Call me old-fashioned, but I prefer getting involved in stocks that are already doing what we want them to do, and I want to let inertia take over.

Today's trade in Southern Copper is one in which both inertia and "magnets" may play a part in delivering gains to us.

[Options Premium] LuLu is Positioned to Flex Higher

December 15, 2023

Short-term traders will classify today's trade as a "hard trade."

We're positioning in a stock that has already had a significant run over the past two months. But if we widen out our lens and look at weekly or monthly candles, we'll see that this stock is making fresh all-time highs out of a monster base which can fuel a dramatic push higher.

[Options Premium] Calling All Degens!

December 8, 2023

The speculative juices are returning to the cryptocurrency space, and the bulls are starting to reemerge from the shadows as Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, and many of the smaller (MOAR!) speculative names are starting some eye-popping gains.

As equities traders, we don't have a proper spot ETF to play anything in the crypto space, but the closest thing we have is Microstrategy $MSTR.

So we're going to use this vehicle to make a speculative bet on a potential upside-down waterfall move in Bitcoin.
