Another Tough Reversal Today…

We have a short – but extremely important – email today.  The market is moving and I need to keep an eye on things for my subscribers…

Take a $19 Test Drive to Options360 and Let Me Help You Find Trading Success

Still, I’d never want to miss my chance to speak to you.

As I write this the Dow is down 342 pts (a little over 1%) on the day so far.  

We were up a little over 100 points around 10:30…

 But it’s been selling off since then.

And the VIX (Volatility Index – otherwise known as the “Fear Index”) has shot up to over 35! 

For a frame of reference, in 2017 the VIX hovered below 10, and before Covid, it ran around 12.  At the beginning of the year, it was around 17 or 18.  

So it’s historically very high, and it’s doubled since the beginning of the year.  

Here’s the point, right now it’s more important than ever to keep HIMI (Happy I Missed It) in mind as you trade.

You need to keep your trades tight and grab profits when you can

Trying to ride manias right now MIGHT make you a few bucks – but more likely will get you crushed like a small-time surfer trying to ride big Hawaiin waves.  

I want to help you stay safe while finding solid trades that can pay off for you

I know it’s boring, but I’ve been doing this for 40 years because I know when to play it safe and grind it out.  

Let me help you survive and thrive in this market.  

It just takes $19.  It’ll be the best money you ever spent.  

To Your Success,

Steve
