We weren't late

Wheeewwwww, what a bounce back we had today
The market closed green, and we did too….

Maybe your like me, if not I hope you at least can relate, because if you can that means you respect others time, and place others above yourself

I have a aunt, she’s only 7-8 years older than me, not much, but to this day she talks about her dad, my grandpa. I knew my grandpa, he didn’t die until I was maybe 27sh…
What my aunt talks about, with total respect and admiration, is come hell or high water, for no reason, at any time, ever, was he late to work. Not once. A different generation back then for sure, but a level of dedication todays society could use more of…
I don’t run late, I don’t…. I’m not perfect, I just have respect for others and their time

In my heart, my mind and my soul, I absolutely, truly, fully and completely 110% recognize that there are only 2 kinds of people in the world
A: Those that do what they say they are going to do
B: And those that make excuses
Success in life is literally that easy to achieve

Do you know the 80 / 20 Rule?
The 80 / 20 rule states this:
20% of the people will do in life what the other 80% won’t
The 20% aren’t always smarter, or harder working
They are more disciplined
And making excuses? That’s not an option for them

That is us right here, right now, in this market
We here at theoptionscoach.net fall into that 20% group
The trade sheet does not lie

We have been very disciplined as of late by starting with Strangles which are non directional and then dropping the losing Strike

Today I took Strangles on SFM
After price began to move I dropped the losing leg ( the Short strike here ) and went Long
I took the Strangles for APR 17, 2025
The Calls I now have are the 160 which is up over 17%
And the 155 which is up almost 62%
Again, new positions created today

COST
Day Traders dream come true today
And investors should be smiling too
Those Calls I shared yesterday that were up 116%
Closed those out today for a gain of 155%
Then closed the other 2, and bought back again down on the dip
Right now all of those are up between 30 - 40% already

Took the WMT trades also, they’re okay, nothing to write home about yet, but they’re green

NVDA appears to be back in play. We initiated a small Strangle position on it late today, kind of a starter test it out position, we will revisit NVDA in the morning

There are multiple ways to make money in the stock market
Different styles, different time frames and even different strategies
The one thing that all successful traders / investors have is discipline
You see, it’s discipline my investor friends, that’s the difference between those that produce results, and everyone else
