If you've been trading options for even a little while, you know you don't need the markets to go up to make money - heck, you don't even need single stocks to go up.
But you've got to admit, it's great to watch the market do what it's doing now. Serial highs, big, bright green lights everywhere, rallies right and left... it's a beautiful thing. The bullish traders out there are raking it in hand over fist.
Of course, the market has come so far, so fast, that a lot of people are thinking, "How long can this last?" It's understandable - less than two weeks ago, the S&P 500 doubled from its March 2020 "COVID Crash" low, which officially makes this the fastest rally since World War II.
Well, I'm here to tell you, the bulls will keep running for the foreseeable future. Isolated stocks might stop and take a breather here and there, but the upward trend is your friend right now.
And I'll take you inside "Tom's Trading Room" to tell you why and, even better, show you how to make money on it.
There are a lot of reasons why stocks will continue to go ballistic, but a lot of fresh "fuel" has come into the markets since March 2020. Tens of millions of new investors, mostly investing and trading on mobile apps, have injected around $970 billion into stocks - waves of speculative cash thrown around with pretty much zero strategy... and no sign of letting up. This activity can generate surges of potentially profitable volatility. I recognized this for the massive opportunity it is, so my team and I built a brute-force algorithm (we call it BRUTUS) - we turned it loose, did some back-testing... and uncovered opportunities for 300% returns in three days... 650% in eight days... even 2,500% in 16 days during the back-testing period! That's how powerful these surges can be. Let me show you more about how this works...
