July Portfolio Income – Amazing 5.92%
Posted on 19. Jul, 2010 by Founder in Blog
During our July trading, we did not close out ANY trades at a lose once again.
Compared to the June portfolio, we had a total return that was MUCH higher comparatively at 5.92% vs. 1.96%. We are extremely happy that we had one of our best months following the flash crash and correction. The VIX spike back in May when we started building this portfolio was an amazing opportunity that we capitalized on.
For more commentary on our amazing month and HOW we pulled it off with the huge correction please watch the video below:
To re-cap this month’s income, let’s look at what we made vs. our required investments (in margin). Here are the positions we had with corresponding PROFIT/INVESTMENT and RETURN:
QQQQ 30 PUT – $18/$308 = 5.83% Return
DIA 80 PUT – $35/$803 = 4.36% Return
SPY 75 PUT- $55/$772 = 7.12% Return
IWM 45 PUT – $30/$450 = 6.67% Return
With regard to TOTAL INCOME and RETURN, the July portfolio produced $138 of total income after investing just $2,333 in margin. This is nearly double what we made last month with far less margin requirements. That means we saw a total portfolio return of 5.92% this month.
As we usually point out, our calculations assume that you enter just 1 (ONE) contract for each trading alert – i.e. a total of 4 contracts for the month. Those members with a higher capital base should be entering multiple contract positions each week.

June Portfolio – A Conservative 1.96%
Posted on 20. Jun, 2010 by Founder in Blog
In the investing world, slow and steady wins the race every time.
During our June trading, we did not close out ANY trades at a lose once again. That’s hard to say for some other sites out there, especially after the recent correction that almost certainly messed with portfolios.
Compared to the May portfolio, we had a total return that was slightly lower comparatively at 1.96% vs. 2.73%. We are a little disappointed that we missed our monthly goal of 2-3% per month. However, we feel that in building the portfolio for June, we had a lot of reasons to stay far from the market and ultra-conservative.
Believe me when I say that next month’s profit will be incredible given the VIX spike we had a couple weeks ago!
To re-cap this month’s income, let’s look at what we made vs. our required investments (in margin). Here are the positions we had with corresponding PROFIT/INVESTMENT and RETURN:
SPY 130 CALL – $18/$909 = 1.98% Return
DIA 118 CALL – $18/$1,417 = 1.27% Return
IWM 60 PUT - $20/$630 = 3.17% Return
QQQQ 40 PUT – $10/$400 = 2.50% Return
With regard to TOTAL INCOME and RETURN, the June portfolio produced $66 of total income after investing just $3,356 in margin. That means we saw a total portfolio return of 1.96% this month. As we usually point out, our calculations assume that you enter just 1 (ONE) contract for each trading alert – i.e. a total of 4 contracts for the month. Those members with a higher capital base should be entering multiple contract positions each week.

January Portfolio Return – 4.08%
Posted on 19. Jan, 2010 by Founder in Blog
The January portfolio return was once again extremely profitable for our members and marks the 12th consecutive month without ANY losing trades! Again that’s 1 WHOLE YEAR without any losing trades! If you want to start seeing these returns in your own account, SIGN UP HERE FOR A PREMIUM MEMBERSHIP.
Compared to the December portfolio, we had a total return that lower comparatively from December at 4.08% to 5.19%. Clearly we don’t really care if we increase or decrease our monthly returns as long as we hit our 3% profit goal – which we are beating nearly each month. In addition, we showed once again that even in the face of a major market moves higher and extreme volatility, selling options with out P.O.T.S system still produced great profits.
To re-cap this month’s income, let’s look at what we made vs. our required investments (in margin). Here are the positions we had with corresponding PROFIT/INVESTMENT and RETURN:
DIA 108 CALL – $53/$1,221 = 4.34% Return
DIA 110 CALL – $55/$1,351 = 4.07% Return
IWM 66 CALL - $30/$595 = 5.04% Return
IWM 42 PUT – $18/$419 = 4.29% Return
QQQQ 35 PUT – $6/$382 = 1.57% Return
As we said earlier, we did not have to close out any positions this month at a loss. This just goes to show everyone that by writing options, you are basically forcing the indexes to make dramatic moves in a very short time frame. And since we have positions on BOTH sides of the market (Puts and Calls), you are guaranteed to make money on at least one side of the trade every time – or both sides like we do every month.
With regard to TOTAL INCOME and RETURN, the January portfolio produced $162 of total income (double from last month) after investing just $3,968 in margin. That means we saw a total portfolio return of 4.08% this month. As we usually point out, our calculations assume that you enter just 1 (ONE) contract for each trading alert – i.e. a total of 5 contracts for the month. Those members with a higher capital base should be entering multiple contract positions each week.
***Even if you factor in a 1% comission for the month our return would still produce annualized returns of over 35% per year***
Currently we have a fully invested 2010 February income portfolio and are about to begin THIS WEEK building the March income portfolio. The outlook for both of these portfolios is extremely positive right now as we are still writing options far away from the market’s current price.

DIA 78 PUT - $25/$827 = 3.02% Return

Investors Intelligence Sentiment Index
Posted on 16. Nov, 2009 by Founder in Blog
Seems the investors intelligence sentiment index is witnessing a bearish low. From the chart you can see that there really are no longer an bearish investors in the market. What this tells us is that everyone is feeling bullish about stocks. And we all know that trading against the herd is always the most profitable.
August Portfolio Income – 3.14% Return
Posted on 22. Aug, 2009 by Founder in Blog
The August portfolio was once again extremely profitable with another month without ANY losses! Although our QQQQ 40 Call gave us a bit of a scare this week, we were still able to close it out early with a profit of 3.30%.
As many of you know, we entered many of these positions during July when the markets were moving sideways. We had anticipated an upward move and therefore sold a lot of Puts below the market which worked beautifully as the markets rallied up. Once again, the power of option writing/selling is clearly evident. To re-cap the month’s income, let’s look at what we made vs. our required investments (in margin).
Here are the positions we had with corresponding PROFIT/INVESTMENT and RETURN:
SPY AUGUST 65 PUT- $17/$650 = 2.61% Return
QQQQ AUGUST 40 CALL- $12/$363 = 3.30% Return*
DIA AUGUST 66 PUT- $20/$621 = 3.22% Return
IWM AUGUST 37 PUT – $14/$372 = 3.76% Return
Once again, we did not have to close out any positions this month at a loss. This just goes to show everyone that by writing options, you are basically forcing the indexes to make dramatic moves in a very short time frame. And since we have positions on BOTH sides of the market (Puts and Calls), you are guaranteed to make money on at least one side of the trade every time – or both sides like we do every month.
With regard to TOTAL INCOME and RETURN, the August portfolio produced $63 of total income after investing just $2,006 in margin. That means we saw a total portfolio return of 3.14% this month. Flat out great return once again! As we usually point out continuously, our calculations assume that you enter just 1 (ONE) contract per week – i.e. a total of 4 contracts for the month.
Those members with a higher captial base should be entering multiple contract positions each week. For example, if you are trading a portfolio of $15,000 then you would have generated roughly $471 of income!
Enjoy your profits!
95% Odds Of Success Trade – DIA Puts
Posted on 27. Jul, 2009 by Founder in Blog
When you write/sell options you want to have the odds of success in your favor – as really with anything you trade or invest in. You want to enter option positions where you ability to profit is overwhelming on your side. For option traders, it’s very easy to find these probabilities – the exchanges give them to you for each strike price based on historical price trends.
The DIA 76 Puts represent a great trading opportunity with just a 4.86% chance of expiring with a loss. Clearly this would mean that you would be entering the position with a 95% chance of making money. This is better than gambling at the casino! By selling this put you would get the premium of $26 credited immediately to your account and as long as the DIA – which is based on the movement of the DOW JONES – close anywhere above 76 (RED LINE) by expiration, you keep the premium as profit. The markets could move up, down, sideways as you still make money. Cold, hard facts to think about.
