Ideas on Position Management and Potential Hedges now that the Bearish Sell Warnings have appeared (4:00 to 5:45)
Next, we take a look at the updated Market Sentiment on July 12th & recent Market Sentiment warnings against the chart of S&P 500 (5:50 to 8:05)
For Ric, we review what the Market Sentiment tool is, look at the historical levels and history for 2 indicators of the 13 total (8:10 to 11:40)

Low Maintenance Trading: Are There 'Fire & Forget' Trades to Earn 20-30% Per Year? (Part 1) |

We received an email prior to our first Open Discussion - Q&A Session for 2025. Stephen K. asked: "I was wondering if you could touch on some low maintenance (longer term) strategies - ones that possibly involve LEAPS? Anualized returns in the 10-30% range (just throwing that number out there, don't know if that's being over zealous)."
We tackled Stephen's question live with our thoughts on Low Maintenance, LEAPs strategies that might suit his needs:
Married Puts
Simulated CD's - Deep ITM Covered Calls 1 Year Out in Time
1 Year Out LEAPs Standard Collars - popular among Broker's and Advisor's
We had the recording set and ready to go...then we realized there was an issue with our comparison!
Using the patented Historical Tools on PowerOptions we showed how the default Married Put results, with no income methods, would have met or exceeded his results.
However, the Simulated CD and LEAPs Collars did not come close to meeting expectations or matching the Buy and Hold of SPY or QQQ.
So we spent the time this weekend to make a fair comparison:
Would the Simulated CDs approach - High Return, High Downside Protection and High Probability Covered Calls meet the returns on the same stocks of the Married Put?
Would balancing the two with a 1-Year Out LEAPs Collar meet the same goals on the same stock?
Instead of posting the live webinar results (and if you want to see that, let us know in the comments) we make a fair comparison...
8 stocks. 3 Bullish Strategies. 3 'Fire & Forget' Low Maintenance Trades. Same Time Period of a Bullish Market.
Which Strategy Comes Out Ahead...? |

Here is the full, unedited content from our webinar on Friday, January 17th, 2025:
1. Question via Email:
Patrick: "I did my first simulated CD this week, but in addition to videos, could you summarize potential trades as the stock drops 10-20 percent, stays static at the entry price, or gains 10% or more prior to expiration? Also, choices as the call approaches expiration. I am excited about a new type of trade for me. Thanks"
In this segment we:
- Introduce the Question, The Simulated CD Covered Call approach and our initial thoughts on management (0:00 to 8:20)
- Look at the SHOP Simulated CD live potential trade we showed in the first part using the Custom Spread / Profit and Loss Chart on PowerOptions to run the What-If scenarios Patrick mentioned (8:25 to 17:40)
- Take a look at 2 'Simulated CD' trades from 6 months ago that are at the half-way point: One up +40% the other down -29%. Where do the Simulated CDs stand and what management might be used? (17:45 to 28:35)
- How did the full group of Simulated CDs perform from that Historical Search 6 months ago? (28:40 to 34:35)
- Review of other content related to the Simulated CD approach, Parity Trade and more (34:40 to 36:30)
2. Live Question:
Paul: "The married put is typically discussed as a starting position. I'm interested in using married puts and income management for 1) stocks that you'd like to own long term but are currently down 10-20%, 2) stocks that you own but are already profitable (say 20-100% return). "
- We take a look at why the Married Put is an important part of our (and should be for every) portfolio and for Paul:
- Married Puts for stocks long term (37:45 to 41:35)
- Married Put on stocks I own that are already profitable (41:40 to 45:45)
- Married Puts on stocks I own that are down in price (45:50 to 57:45)
* How this locks in most of the unrealized loss, but creates a floor
* An alternative approach, the Stock Repair Tool, if the stock has fallen too much
* Where to find more content on Stock Repair and different approaches to repair a stock including a Married Put
- Review of using Married Puts in all 3 scenarios (57:50 to 1:01:00)

Here is the full content from our 2nd Open Forum in 2025!
1. Reminder of the extended EOY Promotion for The Blueprint (0:00 to 2:10)
2. Review of recent events & market conditions this week and a new feature on the PowerOptions Portfolio tools for accessing Roll Outs! (2:20 to 12:00)
3. Patrick (LIVE): How can I access the electronic version of The Blueprint? I am a previous Blueprint Owner... (12:05 to 18:30)
4. Javier (LIVE): I Purchased NVDA at $141 and sold a FEB 120 ITM call at $24.14. The stock has fallen the last few days. How might I manage this trade? (18:35 to 41:30)
- Setting up a new portfolio and entering a new trade
- Setting Alerts based on preferred stops and warnings
- Why we would not convert this to a Collar at this time
- Evaluating Roll Outs when they appear
5. Thomas (LIVE): Do you have clients that trade SPY or QQQ specifically with Married Puts and do they have reasonable success? (41:35 to 45:25)
- Yes, we discuss conversations I have with regular Blueprint owners / PO Users that use SPY or QQQ Married Puts, either by themselves or mixed with other Married Puts from our default screens.
6. William (LIVE): Do you think the Married Put by itself is better than SPY Long LEAPs Puts to protect a Portfolio? (45:30 to 51:50)
- Yes! We show how to find content where we discuss Stock or Portfolio Insurance and different Market Hedges. We discuss why we feel that direct protection is better than broad protection, and the pros and cons of cost of each approach
7. Patrick (LIVE): During last weeks review of the historical results there were one or two stocks that were major outliers (Celestica with a 174% return). This was on the unedited presentation for PowerOptions Customers. Patrick wanted to know 'Do you use any statistical data to mute the outliers and be closer to the mean?' (51:50 to 1:08:25)
- We discuss why we do not use any type of statistical curving when showing our historical results of what would have occurred using our default criteria. We discuss why we are still exceeding goals for this particular strategy with our criteria but if we ever find a better criteria set, we will make changes based on market conditions. It just has not been necessary.
8. Thomas (LIVE): How many Married Puts do you have on average at any given time? (1:08:30 to 1:17:30)
- We share the 2nd layer of protection discussed in The Blueprint for Forcing an Ideal Sized Trade. How we choose how many shares and puts to buy in each new Married Put to additionally help stack the market odds in our favor...and why this might be better than just buying 10 new Married Puts and allocating 10% into each trade. Let's focus on making sure the Max. Monetary risk is 2% or less of our allocation into Married Puts ;)
