Trade Recommendations

Our trades this afternoon stand on the shoulders of a long history of incredible results from our Monthly Options strategy in past years. The setup for today looks overwhelmingly positive. It appears the market is taking a bit of a side step through intraday and we feel like that is a good sign. We remain optimistic about this month's trades and note we have a bit of room to move back up before we hit some of the highs established late last week.

Target Profit Recommendations

We recommend maintaining our standard target profit rate of 30% - 50% for this month.
