A Introduction into Trading for Income You have made a wise choice in your next level of education, moving from stocks or even basic long calls and puts to a higher probability of successful trading. Option spreads give the investor a unique opportunity to invest less money, increase the rates of return and even show a profit even when the original trade moves against your current trend. To help learn these skills, we have created The Success Stock Market Income Course to share with you a specialized knowledge which, hopefully, will increase your rates of return while providing some cash flow along with lower risk trades. Course Goals: - Understand how options can be used in your portfolio - Learn how options are priced - Create income on stocks you own - Trade with Vertical Spreads - Achieve positive cash flow with Iron Condors Throughout this class, we will use several tools and websites. First and foremost, we will use the SuccessStockMarket.com website. SuccessStockMarket.com was created to help you search for stocks and their options as well as provide trading/investing opportunities with timely articles on potential set-ups. We will also use live charts and quotes from a brokerage platform. Since we cannot recommend any, we may use a couple of different brokers’ websites in the class.

SUCCESSS STOCK MARKE T Chapter 1 Getting Started To be a successful investor, we need to understand the alternatives available to us regardless of the market direction. These include various strategies for both the buyer and the seller. We will go over many of these throughout this training but for now, understand that market dynamics can and will change at any moment which may cause you to alter your original trading plan. You will learn that the more choices you have available to you, the better you can adapt to shifts in the market and last as an investor. In fact, the single most common trait among successful investors is their willingness to adjust or alter their trade IF their stock has changed its trend. This means that you’ll have to monitor your positions on a nightly basis if you’re trading options and once or twice a week if you’re trading stocks. Other types of investments will vary as well, but it’s always a good idea to know what is happening in your portfolio. An unexpected surprise that has been left alone for extended periods could be quite costly. Our Stance Our motivation comes from educating investors, of all types, how to trade stocks, options, currency and futures. Combined with a proven track record, you will find that the more education you have within the financial arena, the better you’ll sleep at night. For many investors, the days of buy-and-hold for the long-term are gone. Past decades have proven that prices can begin and end at the same price many years later. Our goal is two-fold, first and foremost is to encourage individual investors to become better stewards of their investments by generating monthly income, whether it is within a personal investment account or a self-directed account and secondly, to give a small portion of your trading proceeds to those who are less fortunate. Copyright © 2013 SuccessStockMarket.com. All rights Reserved. Terms of use apply. 1 To help aid in this teaching process, we will utilize the Success Stock Market website for convenient and easy access to resources. The Success Stock Market Site This website is where we’ll do most of our research and find all the educational articles. Automated stock scanners will quickly search the markets for the best or worst stocks. This top-of-the-line resource includes the popular Dividend Search and Weeklys Search. Automated fundamental analysis is run on every stock when you type in a ticker symbol, no need to manually grade a stock. Automated buy and sell signals are added to every chart to help you easily identify buy and sell signals. A market commentary is written twice a week to give you a better understanding of the overall trend and of any major upcoming news announcements. Homework trades are live trades that are followed from start to finish allowing each student the opportunity to see exactly how to trade a real position. 2 Copyright © 2013 SuccessStockMarket.com. All rights Reserved. Terms of use apply. SUCCESS STOCK MARKET Covered calls, spreads, LEAPS and stock picks are given each week so that you’ll have an opportunity to view what we think are some of the better investments. Some of these will be followed from start to finish meaning we stick with the trade until it is closed out. Others will simply be what we think is the best trade at this current moment in time. Investor psychology plays a large role in determining overall profitability of a student. We cover some of the thought processes that most investors fall into. These are written with a sense of humor and come from actual examples. Education articles are extremely useful and the Success Stock Market website has plenty of them. Need to find out what a technical term is or how it’s used – just check the Technical Talk, Options Institute, or Traders Analysis portion of the site. Opening or Updating an Account Since you’ve already gotten to this point, it’s safe to assume that you have committed yourself to the education process and maybe even opened up a brokerage account. Now that you have made the decision to include options with your trading, you will need to make sure you have the correct permissions within your account. When opening an account, it is important to find the correct type of brokerage firm. Since we will be trading both stocks and options within this training, we’ll concentrate on these types of firms. A simple Google search for “best online brokerage firms” will give you a great starting point. A couple of key points to look for are accounts that allow complex options (allows you to enter into spread trades to potentially fix a bad trade), IRA trading, and of course, the lower the commission cost the better.

Edward Fletcher, III* In this article, the author examines financial data from the 1929 crash and ensuing depression and compares it with financial data from the market decline of 1987 in an attempt to determine why the 1929 crash was followed by a depression but the 1987 decline was not. The author argues that the difference between the two events can be understood best as a difference between the existence of a "culture of financial information" in 1987 and the absence of such a culture in 1929.

Fabozzi Yale School of Management October 19, 2009 ABSTRACT This paper proposes a profit model for spread trading by focusing on the stochastic move- ment of the price spread and its first hitting time probability density. The model is general in that it can be used for any financial instrument. The advantage of the model is that the profit from the trades can be easily calculated if the first hitting time probability density of the stochastic process is given. We then modify the profit model for a particular market, the energy futures market. It is shown that energy futures spreads are modeled by using a mean- reverting process.

  • A Study on Advantages of Separate Trade Book for Bull Call Spreads and Bear Put Spreads
    IOSR Journal of Business and Management (IOSR-JBM) e-ISSN: 2278-487X, p-ISSN: 2319-7668 PP 11-20 www.iosrjournals.org A Study on Advantages of Separate Trade book for Bull Call Spreads and Bear Put Spreads. Chirag Babulal Shah PhD (Pursuing), M.M.S., B.B.A., D.B.M., P.G.D.F.T., D.M.T.T. Assistant Professor at Indian Education Society’s Management College and Research Centre. Abstract: Derivatives are revolutionary instruments and have changed the way one looks at the financial world. Derivatives were introduced as a hedging tool. However, as the understanding of the intricacies of these instruments has evolved, it has become more of a speculative tool. The biggest advantage of Derivative instruments is the leverage it provides. The other benefit, which is not available in the spot market, is the ability to short the underlying, for more than a day. Thus it is now easy to take advantage of the downtrend. However, the small retail participants have not had a good overall experience of trading in derivatives and the public at large is still bereft of the advantages of derivatives. This has led to a phobia for derivatives among the small retail market participants, and they prefer to stick to the old methods of investing. The three main reasons identified are lack of knowledge, the margining methods and the quantity of the lot size. The brokers have also misled their clients and that has led to catastrophic results. The retail participation in the derivatives markets has dropped down dramatically. But, are these derivative instruments and especially options, so bad? The answer is NO.

  • VERTICAL SPREADS: Taking Advantage of Intrinsic Option Value
    Advanced Option Trading Strategies: Lecture 1 Vertical Spreads – The simplest spread consists of buying one option and selling another to reduce the cost of the trade and participate in the directional movement of an underlying security. These trades are considered to be the easiest to implement and monitor. A vertical spread is intended to offer an improved opportunity to profit with reduced risk to the options trader. A vertical spread may be one of two basic types: (1) a debit vertical spread or (2) a credit vertical spread. Each of these two basic types can be written as either bullish or bearish positions. A debit spread is written when you expect the stock movement to occur over an intermediate or long- term period [60 to 120 days], whereas a credit spread is typically used when you want to take advantage of a short term stock price movement [60 days or less]. VERTICAL SPREADS: Taking Advantage of Intrinsic Option Value Debit Vertical Spreads Bull Call Spread During March, you decide that PFE is going to make a large up move over the next four months going into the Summer.

  • Revenue Growth in a Declining Market
    Media Release Page 1/2 Winterthur, January 23, 2020 2019 financial year: revenue growth in a declining market Thanks to numerous new ramp-ups and the favorable portfolio of vehicle models supplied, Autoneum grew organically by 2.5% in a declining market. Adjusted for currency effects, Group revenue in Swiss francs amounted to CHF 2 297.4 million, 0.7% higher compared to the previous year. CHF million 2019 2018 Change Organic growth* Revenue Group 2 297.4 2 281.5 +0.7% +2.5% Revenue Business Groups (BG) - BG Europe 900.9 984.5 –8.5% –5.6% - BG North America 1 001.8 921.8 +8.7% +7.2% - BG Asia 275.7 260.3 +5.9% +8.1% - BG SAMEA 125.8 111.5 +12.8% +32.7% *Change in revenue in local currencies, adjusted for hyperinflation. For the second consecutive year, fewer vehicles were manufactured worldwide in 2019 than in the prior year. In particular, the persistently weak global economy and ongoing trade disputes have had an impact on vehicle demand. With only about 89 million vehicles produced, the market shrank by almost –6% compared to 2018. Despite this negative trend, Autoneum achieved an organic revenue growth of 2.5% through numerous production ramp-ups and a favorable mix of vehicle models supplied. Revenue consolidated in Swiss francs rose by 0.7% from CHF 2 281.5 million to CHF 2 297.4 million. Revenue growth in North America, Asia and SAMEA region significantly above market The Business Groups North America, Asia and SAMEA (South America, Middle East and Africa) not only outperformed the negative market trend in each case, but also reported higher revenues compared to the previous year.
