Best Mid-Term Trade
October 24th, 2003

Our mid-term index options trader traded QQQQ options for this best trade of the week, but one could have traded NASDAQ 100 index shares or options using the same method. These trades were based on strong volume indicators and Market Commentary.

NOTE: This chart of the week is meant mainly for educational purposes. We don't recommend that our customers follow these exact trades. We suggest that you develop your own trading style and try doing some paper trading before using our volume analytics.

Security Return
Call #1 (QQQQ November) +31.25%
Call #2 (QQQQ November) +26.67%

Total Profit:

+$7100

Even though all the above trades were not entirely without risk, we came out on top with a profit of $7100

Should I Trade Options?
Only very experienced traders should trade options because of the high risk involved. You can always trade index shares instead of options and still make a decent profit, but returns will not be as large.

Should I try to paper trade before trading options?
Yes! We suggest that anyone who is new to our signals and analysis try doing some paper trading to start, at least until they are comfortable with interpreting our signals. Only very experienced traders should trade options because of the high risk involved. You can always trade index shares instead of options and still make a decent profit, but returns will not be as large.

What is a 'VMA spike to the upside' (resistive volume)?
Simply put, that means that most of the volume spike was connected with the index while it was moving up.

We would like to show  the motivations that led to the above trades; therefore, we have created what we call a 'Table of Motivation': 

Trade Volume Motivation Market Commentary on Members Home Page during the trade
Buy Call #1
10/9/2003
During the market's decline in the afternoon, it encountered a large supportive VMA spikes to the downside at 13:15 and 14:45. We believe that today's supportive volume will lend to the market's mid-term up-trend.
Sell Call #1
10/16/2003
As the market moved higher, it encountered a large resistive VMA spike to the upside at 13:00. We believe that today's resistive volume to the upside could contribute to a short-term correction.
Buy Call #2
10/17/2003
As the market continued to decline, it encountered several more supportive VMA spikes to the downside at 13:40, 14:30 and near the end of the day. We believe that today's supportive volume could cause the market to move higher mid-term
Sell Call #2
10/21/2003
At 12:00, as the market moved higher, it encountered a large resistive VMA spike to the upside. We believe that the market can move lower in the short-term as it has not reacted to recent resistive VMA spikes to the upside
Buy Call #3
10/24/2003
Left opened
As the market continued to decline, it encountered a very large supportive VMA spike at 12:40, which caused the market to change its short-term downtrend and rally throughout the rest of the day. We believe that today's supportive volume to the downside should help the market move higher in the mid-term

The same principles mentioned above also work for trading the NASDAQ 100, S&P 100, Dow Jones, as well as other indexes.

Here is a detailed list of our investor's trades, which netted the above returns:
