One of Our Fastest "Follow the Money" Winners A great example of how we followed insider buying to sizable profits - in a very short time frame - was our trade on General Electric. In October of 2019, I posted this in The War Room: General Electric (GE) is a mess. A total mess. Shorts think it's going to zero and longs think the worst is behind it. One thing is certain: The shares can get volatile as they approach earnings - and right after as well. It doesn't make sense to bet on it with a lot of money, but they have been optimistic with their last two earnings calls under their new CEO, Larry Culp, and insiders have been buying the shares. So we are going to take another VERY CHEAP, highly speculative chance on GE.
We then entered a speculative earnings play - what we call a "Win-Both-Ways Trade" - to take advantage if the stock moved up OR down. Here's what I said... BUY TO OPEN the GE November 8 $9.50 calls (GE Nov 8, $9.50C) for $0.16 or less. The current bid/offer is $0.15 by $0.16. DO NOT PAY more than $0.16 on this liquid option. Also BUY TO OPEN the GE November 8 $8.50 puts (GE Nov 8 $8.50P) for $0.22 or less. The current bid/offer is $0.21 by $0.22. Do not pay more than $0.22. DO NOT PAY more than $0.38 total for both sides combined.
Just two weeks later, it was clear that following the insider money was the right side of that bet. GE surged from $70.50 to more than $80 in 14 days, and the calls we bought rocketed 453.33%! We closed out the puts and calls on October 30, 2019, for a 123.68% total gain on the trade in just two weeks! Here's my register-ringing post from that day: "SELL TO CLOSE the balance of your GE calls and lock in triple-digit gains!" As you can see, we followed the checklist - and the insider money - and took advantage of the opportunity! And on this play, we hedged our bets. Most of the time, I'll go with a straight call play and aim only for the upside. But I use a wide range of trading tactics to hedge when appropriate. And by using a Win-Both-Ways Trade, we still made out like bandits by following the insider money to profits. YOUR ACTION PLANDon't miss the next real-time insider trade!
