Technical Analysis. Nasdaq 100,

This week our professional trader was able to capitalize on our volume signals for the S&P 500 index which signaled that the market would move higher.

Even though all the above trades were somewhat risky, we came out on top with a profit of $18,610!

Why didn't you buy any Puts?
Although there were some volume signals that pointed towards short-term downtrends, we found that it was better to keep current call positions open since there was not yet enough volume to move the market much lower at those points. Also, MarketVolume's Market Commentary signaled that the market would continue to decline.

Why buy expensive September Calls?
Even though September Call options are more expensive, they tend of to be less volatile in reaction to market swings, and they don't devalue as quickly as a current month option. By trading options that are at least one month ahead, we protect ourselves from unforeseen short-term fluctuations in the market. Also, if the uptrend continues on a long-term, one can hold these options for a longer period as they increase substantially in value.

We would like to make it clear to our members what the motivation was to make the above trades; therefore, we have created what we Call a 'Table of Motivation', in which we try to make it clear the motivation that was behind each of the above trades.

The same principles mentioned above works for trading NASDAQ 100, S&P 100, Dow Jones, and other indexes.
