There's an old adage that goes, "The bulls climb up the stairs, and the bears fall out the window."

Basically, stocks fall faster than they rise – and that statement has never rung more true.

The Dow was climbing to new highs all year long. And then, Monday, Feb. 24, hit and erased every single one of those gains all in one day.

People are scared – and fear grows like wildfire. As wealth dissipates, fear increases, and a vicious circle ensues…

But there's a way to measure the fear in this market and use it to your advantage – to make money on the free fall.

While investors are moving their money around in a desperate cry for help, smart traders are grabbing cash like it's floating in an arcade's wind booth.

By , Money Morning - • Print | Email

The presidential election cycle can sometimes uncover predictable trends in the stock market.

And this is profit potential for investors looking for new options trading patterns.

The average first year of a presidency typically sees the stock market gain.

But then in the second year, tougher policies, including potentially higher taxes, take the optimism out of markets.

And that puts a little pressure on prices.

Those of you who have been with me for a while know I'm an options guy.

Now, Wall Street will tell you options are high-risk trading vehicles that aren't worth your time. But that couldn't be further from the truth…

See, options were originally created as a way to reduce risk. And even the most basic trading techniques will increase your returns over stock trading.

The Secret to This Put Option Trade Is a "Reality Gap"

By , Money Morning - • Print | Email

The law of averages says stocks will eventually find their "fair value."

But in the short term, you can find stocks trading far above or below their fair value.

And when perception and reality say different things, we can find opportunities.

That's especially true when it comes to options trades.

Right now, Money Morning Technical Trading Specialist D.R. Barton, Jr., sees a big opportunity in a stock that rallied on hope but just does not have the financial juice behind it to sustain its price gains.

We'll show you exactly what's happening and how you can use a specific options trade to cash in on the market's overreaction...
