The Ancient Samurai Secret That Produces 88% Accuracy



My name is Steve Bigalow, and I’ve been trading for nearly 4 decades now.

While I quickly became successful enough to leave my job and trade full-time, I must admit that trading never really made me what I would consider “financially free”...

Or at least not until I learned about an ancient pattern—first discovered by Homna, known as the “God of Markets”...

In the mid-18th century, Homna became the modern equivalent of a billionaire by trading rice futures.

He found that a specific candlestick pattern--based on investor sentiment—slices through all other indicators like a samurai sword.

Of course, candlestick patterns are nothing new and are now known by virtually every trader—and this discovery was only half of the equation.

We believe that one of the most exciting – and potentially rewarding – investment ideas is in gene editing. In fact, gene editing is becoming more exciting by the day. It involves the insertion, deletion, or replacement of DNA in a cell or organism. While there are several ways of editing genes, the most exciting technique right now is clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats, or CRISPR, an approach that uses an enzyme found in bacteria to alter DNA. The possibilities for CRISPR gene editing are quite exciting. In fact, with it, there may be a day when genetic diseases can be cured or even prevented altogether. This week, we look at two hot stocks in the gene-editing sector.

Next, Lee Gettess brings us his video newsletter on what he expects from the S&P and bond markets for the coming week.

Stephen Bigalow supplies the next segment where he compares writing covered calls to uncovered puts.

Last, Wendy Kirkland wraps up with her Prime Entry Profits (PEP) Rally Newsletter.

Two Red-Hot Gene-Editing Stocks with 30% Upside

by TradeWins Publishing

We’ve been doing very well with trades.

In fact, we have more wins to take off the table today.

On November 30, 2017, we recommended the following:

  • Editas Medicine (EDIT) at $29. It’s now at $37.25.
  • Intellia Therapeutics (NTLA) at $22. It’s now at $26.26.
  • ARK Genomic Revolution ETF (ARKG) at $24.95. It’s now up to $27.88.

Hold all three.

On December 27, 2017, we recommended the following:

  • Spark Therapeutics (ONCE) at $53. It’s now up to $57.33.
  • BioTelemetry (BEAT) at $30.85. It’s now up to $34.20.
  • Square Inc. (SQ) at $35. It’s now up to $47.15.

Exit half of each of these.

Then, on January 17, 2018, we recommended buying to open the SQ March 2018 43 calls, as they traded at $2.30. They’re now up to $6.35 – a 176% win.

Exit half of this position.

As for new opportunities, one of the hottest stories is still gene editing.

In fact, we’re reiterating a buy on EDIT, and buying into CRISPR Therapeutics (CRSP), too.

We believe that one of the most exciting – and potentially rewarding – investment ideas is in gene editing. In fact, gene editing is becoming more exciting by the day.

Comparing Covered Calls to Uncovered Puts

by Stephen Bigalow

The following is an excerpt from Stephen Bigalow's Pivotal PROFIT System

Complicating the analysis of covered calls is the fact that the uncovered put has the same market risk. Even though these two strategies are opposite (because calls and puts are opposite), the analysis points out an interesting similarity.

The table below summarizes the similarities and differences of the two strategies.

The comparison between the two strategies does involve the same market risk, with some notable differences. For many, the inflexibility of the covered call in cases where the stock price declines below net basis makes uncovered put writing desirable. When the stock price falls, exercise becomes a possibility; but because no stock is owned, the put can be bought to close and replaced with a later-expiring short put. This rolling strategy can be repeated indefinitely.

The greatest risk in writing uncovered puts is that the stock price could fall substantially. For this reason, it makes sense to focus on stocks with two attributes. First, the fundamentals should be very strong, so that price volatility will not be a large factor as long as the short put is open. Second, write puts on stocks with prices lower than average. A stock’s price can only fall so far, so a lower price per share represents lower market risk. Can a stock price fall to zero? In theory, it can. But the true lowest price risk is tangible book value per share; the value of assets minus tangible assets, minus liabilities. A stock can fall below that level, but it would be quite unusual. Most stocks trade above tangible book value, but rarely fall below.

The Ratio Write

Another variation worth considering is an expansion of the covered call, to the ratio write. This is a strategy in which more calls are sold than shares of stock are owned.

  6. Some profit examples are based on hypothetical or simulated trading. This means the trades are not actual trades and instead are hypothetical trades based on real market prices at the time the recommendation is disseminated. No actual money is invested, nor are any trades executed. Hypothetical or simulated performance is not necessarily indicative of future results. Hypothetical performance results have many inherent limitations, some of which are described below. Also, the hypothetical results do not include the costs of subscriptions, commissions, or other fees. Because the trades underlying these examples have not actually been executed, the results may understate or overstate the impact of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity. Simulated trading services in general are also designed with the benefit of hindsight, which may not be relevant to actual trading. In addition, hypothetical trading does not involve financial risk, and no hypothetical trading record can completely account for the impact of financial risk of actual trading.  TradeWins makes no representations or warranties that any account will or is likely to achieve profits similar to those shown.
