10 Ways to Increase Your Investment Returns Now
How the Stock Market looks going into Mid October
What’s up fellow Investors,
In today’s letter we will:
Drill down to some simple ways you can increase your investment returns
I will talk about some killer charting software
My outlook for the market this week going into mid-October
1) My current favorite charting software is Alchemcharts
As an investor doing the market the way we do, which is ofcourse with a more professional approach. I love using Alchem because it was built by traders/investors just like you and I.
But we also have to have back up systems just in case.
My back up is using Nison candlestick software and that combines great with trading view.
Upcoming News:
I am putting together a webinar series that will be available for all you newsletter subscribers. The series is going to dive deep with individuals I know have built seriously massive assets and then used that income to develop mulitple income streams for true lasting passive income and generational wealth.
I am thinking of calling it “Leveraged Wealth”.
I am working on scheduling the first interview and then we will do the entire series live on Zoom. This means it is limited to 100 or so seats so even with only making it available to you all, the seats will still be first come first serve.

- 10 way to Increase Your Investment Returns by 60% or more a year
Do you really think you are getting all you can out of your investments?
If so then perhaps you should give this a quick unbaised read before continuing on because your family deserves better than 10% a year in returns.
As the main controller and planner of your families financial destiny I feel that you have an obligation to get the most out of every dollar you can and I have an obligation to pull back the curtain revealing what is really possible.
Let us remove those blinders shall we? This could be a bit much at first so be sure to refer back to this.
1) Create serious money management and disicpline between accounts.
You can earn more money in the stock market by giving different accounts specific jobs and keeping that discipline intact.
Here’s what I mean
The account I use to trade options with is seperate and at a different brokerage than my IRA account.
Each one has different jobs and plans. I do not trade my IRA but 6 times a year and with the same stock.
My options account I trade multiple times a month and several different stocks and indexes.
2) Move Profits to Long Term Assets
The best trader I ever met in my life at first glance seemed as if he was a failure. Many years he would end the year with an account balance very similar to that of the amount he began the year with.
His secret was the money he moved into an investment account outside of what anyone could see.
At the end of 10years my trader friend had only moved his trading account from $100,000 turning it into $200,000.
Everyone laughed him off the floor… Until he told them he was retiring from floor trading for good.
After a stunned slience he was asked how is this possible?
My trader friend responded by showing them an investment account with over $10,000,000 he had moved from his trading profits into a savings account.
He was now using that money to buy a business back in his home state of N.C. and retire from the stressful life of floor trading for good.
My trading friend is now worth a crazy amount of money and he still trades moving money to his investment accounts every month from his profits.
3) Use your IRA for compounding profits
I was taught a longtime ago this phrase.
Live different now by choice so that eventually you get to live way better than most for the rest of your life.
That is how I use my IRA. I do not invest with those monies. I trade them!
What do I mean? Here is the break down..
Instead of buying stock and holding it for years putting in more money every year, I do this; I trade stock for months at a time sometimes as short as weeks at a time and compound the profits by rolling them all into the next trade I do.
I repeat this trading process in my IRA 6 times a year usually and I have never fallen below a 60% annaulized return in my IRA.
4) Follow the Trend of the Monthly and Weekly Charts
No matter what action you take in the market you need a pattern to follow. My pattern always begins with what are the Weekly and Monthly charts doing.
What is the trend?
I never trade or buy against that trend.
5) Use Index Options
Setup an account to trade index options using calls, puts, naked calls, and naked puts.
If you do not know the term trading naked this is how I was taught to think about it.
Trading naked means you are selling an option you do not own and buying it back to close the trade later.
You get paid upfront, which means more money from every trade off the same movement.
If you are right about the movement then you cannot go wrong here.
If you trade a call then you sell a naked put. The call value increases and the naked put value decreases.
When you are done with the trade you close the naked side by buying the put back for less than they paid you and keeping the difference.
Trust me when I say getting paid to trade upfront is such as cool feeling.
You may find yourself addicted to it!
6) Buy Longterm using the Charts
So many investors buy stock just because they like the company.
My goal for all of you reading this is to have an edge over those other non- informed investors.
The public just throws darts at the wall and hopes. We do not trade or buy on hope. We are more professional and we will use the charts to tell us when the best buy opportunities present themselves.
Again, this is using the Monthly and Weekly charts, but we are going to add another chart in here with the 3day to time our entry more accruate.
Timing those market charts with the individual symbols charts we want to buy will make a huge difference for us moving forward.
7) Trade stocks that move alot
When you are trading stocks look for movement of $5-$10 a week or more.
Anything less than that and you are not getting the most out of your hard earned money.
I will give you some example stocks here so you can go look up the movement on your own charts and see what I am referring to.
GS- Goldman Sachs, NOW- ServiceNOW, DE-johndeere, SHW- Shermin Paint
These stocks are some examples of stocks that really move. This means when you trade them you can make alot of money!
8) Use Put Options to Protect in Bear Market Situations
I have talked about in the past, but are you really using this stratedgy?
Every time the market has a pullback that last weeks or begins a months long bear market you can profit and offset the loss in your long term holdings.
Just by 1 contract more in put options for every 100 shares you own in that stocks.
So if you own 850 shares you would buy 9-10 contracts of puts to protect you against your downside losses.
9) Focus Your Work around October - January Every Year
One of the women whose stock market journey inspired me to really keep going during tough times taught me how powerful this can be when compounded year over year.
This lady loves beach life and so every year she comes home and from October - February she grinds and earns money using many of the same stock market stratgies I talk about here.
She earns a boat load of cash and then some time in March charters a jet to take her to whatever Air BNB she has rented for the summer to live in on some island nearest the equator.
This women literally disappears for the entire summer just living life.
Do you know what money she lives on?
The money she earned from previous years October - January work.
This can be a powerful plan when you use it with discipline.
10) Stop Focusing on the Money
Ok you got me I do talk about money alot.
That is only to get you investors interested in the power of how the stock market can change your financial life.
Truthfully most people that do the market well have learned to focus on skillset development and plans.
They keep the discipline of the plan and forget about the money growing in the account.
This is the only way I know to stay unemotional and your emotions are what kill your edge in the stock market.
What is the stock market looking like:
Well let us focus on the $SP500
The big charts are resting on the tops and the upward momentum is slowing. We are still one month away from the election.
We will start to see the downside pressure from mutual funds selling off losers start to effect the market, but a good year means a good earnings so after the election we should see companies that announce solid earnings start to take off to the upside.
I would not be suprised to see some down side pressure before then sometime in the next 2 weeks.
Without a selloff the November upside will not be as strong in all probability.
