Tackle Today: The X marks the spot

≈ Vote for the Stock of the Week on Instagram. ≈

I don’t know if you guys are aware of this but every Tuesday we running a Stock of the Week quiz on Tackle’s Instagram. It is very simple: go to Tackle Trading’ Instagram profile › click on the coin on the top left corner › choose the stock you want the coaches to analyze for you. The stock that gets voted the most is the winner and will be dissected by one of us.

Votes are opened this week for:

Urban Outfitters, Inc.
NASDAQ: URBN

Wells Fargo & Co
NYSE: WFC

United States Steel Corporation
NYSE: X

I already got my preferred stock: X. What happened to U.S. Steel over the last year is ridiculous. From the highs on July 2018 @ $38.89 to the 7th Circle of Hell on May 2019 @ $11.67, a –233% loss in price.

U.S. Steel is part of the Dirty Sexy Money list, released as part of the Tackle 25 2019 edition. It has always been a great candidate for cash flow strategies like the Naked Put and the Covered Call. But is it still?

Is it on a nice set up for a directional S.T.E.P. System trading?
Is it on a nice set up for selling puts in a bottom-fishing style?

VOTE X! Let’s hear what the Coaches have to say about the most recent dog in the financial markets. Follow and vote in your favorite stock HERE.

PS: Speaking of Tackle 25, tonight we are holding the June MasterMind Group meeting. Owners of the system are very welcome to participate.

Tales of a Technician

The Killer Combo for Options Sellers

Want a killer combination for eye-popping returns when selling premium? It’s very simple and easy to remember. I used it yesterday during a mentorship session to show a 60% return on a high probability short strangle trade. Some of you probably already know the combo. It’s not really a secret, unless you haven’t heard of it before. Now that I think of it, everything you don’t know is a secret.
