I thought he was kidding

Dear David,

When Bernie Schaeffer called me from the Las Vegas Money Show to tell me about the offer he wanted to make to you this weekend, I laughed. I thought he was kidding.

But, Bernie doesn’t “kid.” Especially when it comes to delivering big winning trades to his loyal customers.

He told me that he is seeing an abundance of profit opportunities in this market and he wants as many people as possible on board and ready to bank these big gains.

And with that in mind, he came up with the following opportunity just for you.

Are you sitting down?

For one day only Bernie Schaeffer is offering you a 3-month trial subscription to his amazing PowerTrend Series for only $49.

A 3-month subscription is regularly $249, so you save $200. Plus, you have no further obligation. When your 3 months are up, you walk away. If you like what you’ve seen, just contact us for a great offer on an annual subscription.

There won’t be a better time or offer to join PowerTrend Series . . . and this strategy is delivering the goods.

Just take a look at these 3 hot trades, all closed out in the last 2 weeks:

** Blue Nile call option delivered +135% GAINS
** Amazon.com call option delivered +95% GAINS
** Another Amazon.com call option delivered +85% GAINS

And Bernie is seeing plenty of profit opportunities on the horizon.

David, this opportunity is huge! I don’t want you to miss your chance to get in on this offer.

So, I’ve attached the exact email that will be hitting your inbox tomorrow morning.

We only have a limited number of spots available with this special offer, so check out Bernie’s email . . . and if you like what you see, give us a quick call to secure your spot in PowerTrend Series with this amazing offer.

Just call one of my consultants at 1-800-448-2080 Ext. 1253 until 8:00 p.m. ET tonight.

Or, you can click here for more information or to start your subscription right now.

Or, you can risk it and wait until tomorrow when you receive Bernie’s email.

All of our consultants will be in the office between 10:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. ET to answer your questions.

But be warned. . . when we sell all of the available spots, this offer will come off the table. So call early.

BIG GAIN ALERT: 3 NEW BIG WINNERS

Dear David,

While many investors follow the old adage and “sell in May and go away,” a small group of savvy traders is “selling in May and looking for the next play.”

Check out these 3 hot trades, all sold for huge gains in the last 2 weeks:

** Blue Nile call option delivered +135% GAINS
** Amazon.com call option delivered +95% GAINS
** Another Amazon.com call option delivered +85% GAINS

And if you act today, you can join these traders on their quest for huge option profits . . . for less than $50.

As many traders let their money collect dust in some bank vault, street-smart option traders can make an absolute mint from May to November . . .

Jaw-dropping triple-digit gains like these . . .

** +339% GAINS on Alpha Natural Resources calls
** +244% GAINS on Ciena Corp. puts
** +179% GAINS on Central European Distribution puts
** +146% GAINS on MasterCard calls
** +123% GAINS on Blue Coat Systems puts
** +244% GAINS on UAL Corp. puts
** +183% GAINS on PetroQuest Energy calls
** +152% GAINS on MGM Mirage puts
** +140% GAINS on Bill Barrett calls
** +152% GAINS on Rockwell Collins puts
** +151% GAINS on CNH Global puts
** +109% GAINS on Energy Select Sector SPDR calls
** +197% GAINS on International Game Technology puts
** +217% GAINS on Retail HOLDRs Trust puts

These are ACTUAL GAINS my PowerTrend Series subscribers snatched up between May 1 and November 1 of last year as the S&P 500 plunged 30%.

And these subscribers don’t just make money in the fall and summer . . . check out these additional big winners closed out in the last few months:

** +301% GAINS on Freeport McMoran Copper & Gold puts
** +135% GAINS on Blue Nile calls
** +102% GAINS on Potash puts
** +167% GAINS on J.C. Penney puts
** +103% GAINS on Buffalo Wild Wings calls
** +119% GAINS on Darden Restaurants calls

So how’d they do it? You guessed it . . . They traded options.

And by trading options, my PowerTrend Series subscribers are making these fantastic gains with LESS money invested, limited risk and a greater potential for huge triple-digit gains.

And I want to give you a chance to make these mega-gains for yourself.

*****************************************************************************
You can quickly rebuild your portfolio with targeted option plays like this . . .

Invest with less money
You can invest in options with a lot less money than if you bought the stocks. Let me show you what I’m talking about with this PowerTrend Series trade.

If you’d followed the mantra “sell in May and go away” last year, you would have missed the Ciena Corp. trade we entered on June 12.

Just 7 days before we recommended our put trade on Ciena (CIEN), the company released its fourth-quarter earnings.

It reported a profit of 40 cents per share, three cents better than consensus estimates.

Despite the seemingly good earnings news, the shares sank nearly 8% by the closing bell. When we recommended our trade on June 12, the stock was trading at its lowest point in 3 months and had already blown through all of its potential support levels.

But Wall Street analysts were bullish and option speculators were still betting on a rally in the stock’s price.

We thought differently. All this bullish sentiment was simply setting the stock up for another fall.

We told subscribers to buy the October 2008 puts on June 12. On that day, you could buy one put contract for just $510 (which allows you to control 100 shares of stock).

Meanwhile, buying 100 shares of Ciena stock would have cost you $2,669, because the stock was selling for $26.69 on June 12.

With this option play, you’re risking one-fifth less cash – while also supersizing your profit opportunity!

Let me explain. Just 4 months later on October 16, the put contract had skyrocketed and we sold for a 244% average return!!!

Where was Ciena stock? Selling for $7.39 – a shattering loss for unlucky investors of 72%.

If you’d spent, say, $5,100 buying Ciena puts instead of stock, you’d have $17,544 in your pocket today, instead of losing nearly $3,700.

With options, you risk less money than buying the stock. And of course, as an option trader, you can make money all year long – whether stocks are trending up or down.

And I want to make it so easy for you to jump on bulging profits like these, regardless of which way the market turns from here.

But, this is a “today only” offer.

You must call 1-800-448-2080 Ext. 1253 until 4:00 p.m. ET or click here until midnight to start targeting big gains from PowerTrend Series for only $49.

The DOW-BUSTING Gains Stocks Just Can’t Give You

Many investors are scratching their heads wondering how to play this wild market. They have either watched their portfolios shrink or sold off at huge losses.

And very few know how to play the recent rally. So instead, they sit on the sidelines making not one penny in profits.

But you don’t have to wonder or worry. You can join my PowerTrend Series subscribers and rake in returns of +100% . . . +200% . . . +300% . . . and more right now.

Just take a look at these whopping gains my subscribers have piled on by making smart trades all year long:

** +339% GAINS on Alpha Natural Resources calls
** +244% GAINS on Ciena Corp. puts
** +179% GAINS on Central European Distribution puts
** +146% GAINS on MasterCard calls
** +123% GAINS on Blue Coat Systems puts
** +244% GAINS on UAL Corp. puts
** +183% GAINS on PetroQuest Energy calls
** +152% GAINS on MGM Mirage puts
** +140% GAINS on Bill Barrett calls
** +152% GAINS on Rockwell Collins puts
** +151% GAINS on CNH Global puts
** +109% GAINS on Energy Select Sector SPDR calls
** +197% GAINS on International Game Technology puts
** +217% GAINS on Retail HOLDRs Trust puts
** +301% GAINS on Freeport McMoran Copper & Gold puts
** +102% GAINS on Potash puts
** +167% GAINS on J.C. Penney puts
** +103% GAINS on Buffalo Wild Wings calls (1/4 of position)
** +112% GAINS on Blue Nile calls (1/4 of position)
** +119% GAINS on Darden Restaurants calls

There’s no need to embark on a fruitless quest for stock profits. Not when you can have 4 to 6 option trades delivered each month directly to your inbox.

Of course, not all of our PowerTrend Series trades deliver gains of +100% or more. The truth is there are losing trades as well - more than I’d like. But the important thing to remember is that your HUGE triple-digit winners can overpower your losses . . . and in the end you can come out ahead . . . way ahead.

And if you act now, you could be making these same kind of gains our PowerTrend Series subscribers are making.

You’ll pay only $49 to get your PowerTrend Series trades for the next 3 months. That’s $200 off the regular subscription fee - and there’s no further obligation.

When your 3 months are up, your subscription will expire and you walk away. If you like what you’ve seen, just contact us for a special offer on an annual subscription.

So, try PowerTrend Series out. See for yourself the amazing triple-digit gains that can pile up in your portfolio.

The 3-Step Secret Behind our Winning PowerTrend Series Option Trades

STEP #1: Find Stocks with Momentum

A stock with momentum is a stock that’s on the move and riding the trend for further gain.

At Schaeffer’s, we define momentum stocks as those that have remained above or below their 50-day moving average for at least 40 trading days. And the security in question must have gained or lost at least 10% during this time frame.

To pick a stock with momentum in this market we first identify trends. We find stocks or sectors that are trending up or down - and more importantly, we conduct in-depth analysis to determine if that trend will continue.

And there are stocks doing exactly that.

In fact, in this roller coaster market, a momentum-based strategy has actually been even more effective than usual.

Because while the overall market is bouncing around, many individual stocks are making big moves in one particular direction.

Perhaps Forbes magazine put it best when it wrote: "Momentum investing can be very profitable . . . The speed at which an investor could potentially make a pile of money is staggering."

As You Can See We Find Many Momentum Stocks

I’ve just shared with you countless examples of how we have turned the secret of a stock’s momentum into profits for PowerTrend Series subscribers.

Step #2: Determine When to Buy

Once we find a momentum stock, the trick is to figure out if that momentum will continue.

At Schaeffer’s, we’ve developed a proprietary method of analysis that has really perfected the trick of determining when a stock will continue rolling - even in the face of some unexpected bad company news or, for instance, a downturn in the overall sector.

This proprietary Expectational Analysis® methodology is based on correctly reading investor sentiment. We look at whether investor sentiment is compelling enough to keep a stock moving in the same direction – even if external forces act upon it.

If the sentiment is compelling enough, we then have what we call "permission to buy".

To put it simply, a combination of strong price action with bearish sentiment indicates that the stock’s momentum is likely to continue upward.

And a combination of declining price action with bullish sentiment indicates that the stock’s momentum is likely to continue downward.

Now I’ll show you Step #3 of my secret for finding these amazing trades . . .

Step #3: How to Turn Small Moves into Really Big Gains

There’s a right way and a wrong way to target profits from momentum-based stocks.

You can ride the trend and target some nice gains by purchasing or shorting the actual stock. But that’s the wrong way to do it – especially in today’s volatile market.

Why? Because you can make really big gains – and not risk any expensive margin calls - by trading options.

And with PowerTrend Series, that’s exactly what we do. We trade options on an equity’s momentum instead of making straight stock buys.

You see, you can trade call options on a momentum stock for much less than buying shares of the stock . . . and your gains can be 4 to 10 times MORE than the stock’s gain.

Although there is significant profit potential associated with buying options, there is also the risk of losing the amount invested in any individual trade. In any option buying approach, it is expected that losing trades will be more numerous than winning trades. The goal is for the average gain to be significantly greater than the average loss so that the bottom line is profitable.
