I have encouraging updates on our two open long-call positions today … But before we get into that, though, I want to take a minute to answer a great question for Max Profit Alert subscriber, Rita L., who wrote recently in response to my “going dark” note.

In last week’s update, I shared that I was considering “going dark for a bit” on put-write trades… So far, the strategy has been flawless. We’ve locked in profits on 30 consecutive trades without a single loser. But based on the lack of feedback, I just wasn’t sure whether anyone was actually cashing in on the recommendations.

Last Wednesday, I sent out a Trade Alert to close out your two latest put-write positions. We’d added both positions just ONE day before, on March 31. This was yet another lightning-fast payday — your chance to lock in a quick couple hundred (or couple thousand) dollars in pure profits, just by working with the market’s volatility instead of trying to fight against it.

Volatility is driving today’s markets — and that can be great news for traders like us… We’ve closed out four options trades so far in 2026. Two were triple-digit winners, another yielded a 50% gain in a little over a week, and the fourth left us with a smaller 28% loss. These kinds of fast-moving trades are precisely the reason why we love working with options.

So far this year, the S&P 500 has essentially traded sideways — down less than a half a percent since New Year’s Eve as I write. The once-soaring “Magnificent 7” top tech stocks are likewise not doing so hot. They’re currently down more than 7% on the year, underperforming the broader market.
