Yesterday, we closed our Nike Inc. (NYSE: NKE) put options.
That’s the second trade our BaR indicator’s new signal line alerted us to exit.
Our Archer-Daniels-Midland Company (NYSE: ADM) puts are on the cusp today, along with First Solar Inc. (Nasdaq: FSLR). These stocks could trigger signal-line exits by tomorrow.
Until then, we remain bearish on ADM, FSLR and the broad market.
And we are jumping on a new signal to buy on red with gold mining company Newmont Corp. (NYSE: NEM).
We had a subscriber submit a question about our decision to bet against gold stocks — namely, our June puts in Yamana Gold Inc. (NYSE: AUY) — at a time when fundamentals and financial system developments make a bullish case for gold.
We’ll respond to this question in our weekly update tomorrow.
Suffice it to say, nothing goes straight up, and time frames are important.
Gold will have pullbacks during its new bull market, and our system is designed to capture gains from the ebb and flow of trader sentiment inside longer-term trends.
So, let’s buy NEM puts on red today!
NEM Meets Our 2 Rules
Rule No. 1: The Apex Profit Trigger
Click here to learn more about this proprietary indicator.
On NEM’s chart, the black bars in our momentum indicator turned red, which is our signal.
We’ll buy on red with July put options.
Rule No. 2: Triple-Digit Potential
Options are our “profit accelerator.” They let us capture large, speculative gains.
To ensure our potential reward is worth the risk, we only select options that give us the chance to earn triple-digit gains if the trade reaches our target.
NEM’s price is around $63.20 today.
If NEM falls 15% to our target — around $53.50 per share — the options we’re recommending today provide the chance for a 120% gain before they expire on July 17!
Your Action to Take:
Buy to Open NEM July $60 Put Options
Here are your details to complete two actions:
No. 1, enter the buy order.
And No. 2, place an order to grab profits on HALF of your position when it reaches a 70% open gain. For more about why we recommend this action, click here.
