| | How to Profit From the Market's Waiting Room Author: Corey Snyder, Publisher
Out of the hundreds of different strategies implemented by investors and institutions across the globe, there's one that is far too simple to ignore…
And for the retail investor, it's the one strategy that I'd recommend anyone use because it fits every time horizon.
Your endgame could be 20 minutes, or 20 years…
It doesn't matter.
What does matter is that it's easy. And if you can do a miniscule amount of homework, you'll find that your YTD profit on a single ticker will vastly exceed your expectations...
Because the only thing that concerns any of us is not the fact that we invested in a great company or that we timed a trade perfectly through expert technical analysis - none of that…
It's that the P&L shows more "P" than "L".
And sometimes you can even find that you profited from a "losing" trade…
Let me explain…
Rigor Mortis One of the most incredible things about trading is the countless number of ways to extract money from a single position…
This is what always attracted me to investing and it's the very reason myself and just about every trader I know got involved.
If you're long, you can sell covered calls, short puts, etc.
And if you're short, you can do the opposite.
These are only limited examples of the possibilities. But the strategies don't have to be options…
You see, in a perfect world, the moment when you take profits on a trade occurs almost immediately after putting on a position…
…But we know this is rarely the case.
What's more is that we can find ourselves in a "dead" stock - which we know will climb - but we don't want the waiting game to erode the balance of our account.
Ah, the time value of money…
It's something that familiarity and growing complacency lead you to…
And then you forget about the overall goal… profits.
Buy more.
Maybe don't double your current position size, but something "swingable" that doesn't pull down your cash position too much.
Now, the devil is in the details here, so I'll elaborate…
Let's say your position in XYZ has been asleep at the wheel for the last month…
Well, you've been holding it for two and you're down a little, but there's a defined variance in its price movement.
So, you take a closer look at how it's been trading…
For instance, you bought XYZ at $20.00 and your goal is to sell at $30.00…
You're confident that it gets there, but, for now, every couple of days it volleys back and forth between $17.00 and $19.00 with little to no give…
You've been handed a gift.
This is simple math…
In one month of trading like this, XYZ is offering 11.76%, again, every couple of days…
It may not be the windfall you're expecting with your main holding, but the easy gain adds up, especially when it's repeatable.
There's 21 trading days per month, on average.
Cut in half, we'll call it ten.
What would one grand have been in that month while you waited?
$3,039.93.
And you'll have even more once you've reached your target... Keep moving,

- Bitcoin's Path of Most Resistance - Over the weekend, Bitcoin continued on with its recovery, printing over $45,000 for the first time since May of this year before falling closer to $42,000. This boosted the rest of the cryptocurrency world including major digital assets like Ethereum and even the cheekier-named cryptos like Shiba Inu Coin, which gained as high as 40%. For what reason? No one really knows.
- WhatsApp's "Minor" Issue - Apple's (AAPL) latest privacy and security measures were met with resistance from WhatsApp on Friday when WhatsApp's Will Cathcart alleged that it would become a "surveillance system." The planned iOS update from is said to detect images of child abuse and pornography, but Cathcart warned that the software could instead be used to look at other forms of private content on Apple products owned by consumers. Never thought we'd hear privacy concerns from WhatsApp. Facebook owns it.
- Gold Places Last in Market Olympics - The yellow metal has been on a steady decline as of late and the recent employment data isn't helping. On Friday, employment figures surprised experts with stronger numbers than expected, causing investors to speculate as to whether or not the Fed would continue its current level of support. Gold was down close to 6% following the news. Go silver! Well, that's down too.
