For example if you get a credit spread with a premium of .20 between the spreads then your goal is for that premium to theta out to 0 for full 100% profit.
Example of spreads:
$SPY Put Credit Spread
Put credit spread is actually a bullish credit spread
$SPY Sold $382P
$SPY Bought $381P
$SPY Sold $382P
$SPY Bought $381P
You always sell the higher strike in this case $382 and buy the lower strike in this case $381.
This means you do not expect $SPY to go under $382 and if it stays above $382 by end of day you will make full profit of $100%
Now let’s do it the other way now…
$SPY Call Credit Spread (Bearish)
If you are expecting a down day or flat day you could do a call credit spread and a good example is:
$SPY sold $385C
$SPY bought $386C
Meaning you do not want spy to go over $385 by end of day for full profit!
Let’s also dive into the contracts/price associated with them so for example $386 and $385C have a $1 spread in between them as they are $1 apart.
This means for every contract you buy your collateral is $100 if you buy 10 contracts you are putting up $1000 for collateral.
Also let’s dive into the actual spread premium let’s just say the spread difference from $385C is .20 and the $386C is .10 so the spread difference is .10 this is your premium your call credit spread will be executed....
.....executed at which means if you buy 10 contracts your total profit is $100 as every 1 contract is 100 shares technically so $10 per contract and a total of 10 contracts equals $100 in maximum profit.
With this strategy I turned $25,000 into $720K in under 12 months.
Currently, I started at $2000 using this strategy with the @bulltradefinder community and am up 50% at $3000 currently.
THIS WILL LITERALLY BE A SECOND INCOME AS IT WAS BEFORE! I AM SHOWING IT IS POSSIBLE!
A Detailed Thread on Candlesticks you NEED to know 🧵
These candlestick patterns can be a leading factor in a trend change before many know it’s even happening 👇🏼
1. Bullish Inverted Hammer
Strong reversal candle in a downtrend and as you can see above this one led as the market bottom leading up for a 65 point move after.
Always want to find it after a big red candle.
2. One of my favorite setups is the Harami, in this case it was a bearish harami. This candle is near the top of the previous large green candle & would be vice versa for the bulls if it was on bottom of a previous large red candle with same sized wicks on both ends. 30+ points
I want to say something that I think needs to be said.
I see people posting profits of $1M daily and no hate to that at all in fact I can’t be more happy to those that do.
It’s a dream come true if your making that much daily.

But some people get skewed seeing this and they want to be on that level day 1.
You need to build boundaries and grow into that level of trading. Not everyday can it happen and you shouldn’t be shooting for the stars day 1 as those stars will burn straight through your account.
I’ve consistently posted over the past 4-8 weeks give or take a few losing days $1200-$2500 days including the personal acccount and challenge account.
Being able to show you it is possible with a small account and building consistency is key over $1M days to start.
