Trend Signal Now: 2025 Will Not Be Like This Year

Sunday, December 22, 2024

Here's what we don't know:

We don't know what the market is going to do next. The S&P500 could go up, it could go down and it could go sideways in the coming quarters. We just don't know.

Here's what we do know. We do know that asset prices trend. So the trend in place right now in the market, for stocks or otherwise, are in place until those trends change.

We have a variety of indicators to monitor the direction of various trends for asset prices including stocks, commodities, interest rates and forex markets, Crypto too.

Now, what we also know is that next year, 2025, will be different than this year and last year. We know. We have the data.

Here's a look at what the past few years have looked like. In some years the S&P500 trend mostly higher. In 2022, for example, it trended lower. And as you can see, it can trend in both directions during a given year:

We know that next year will be different. We don't have to guess.

What we do need to focus on is on how we're going to adapt to the changes in the environment throughout 2025.

What will we do if we enter a higher volatility regime? But what if we remain in a low volatility regime?

And what if we go into a bear market? But what if the bull market continues?

What do we do about it all?

And that's where Sean McLaughlin comes in, our Chief Options Strategist.

Sean is an expert is in crafting trades that adapt to each type of market regime:

Bullish in a High Volatility Regime
Bullish in a Low Volatility Regime
Bearish in a High Volatility Regime
Bearish in a Low Volatility Regime

That's it. It has to be one of those 4. And for each of those 4 scenarios, Sean has the ideal trade setup for that particular stock.

He's the best in the business at formulating a trading plan. I've never seen anyone do it better. And I've been around a long time.

That's what All Star Options is all about - making sure we're prepared to express the trade ideas and research being done at All Star Charts, but executing and managing risk using the options market.

Sean's Options Chain analysis is that 3rd dimension. Sean takes a linear trade that we set up at All Star Charts and adds that 3D element to both the analysis and execution.

And these are very simple strategies. This doesn't have to be complicated. If you know anything about me or my crew, we like to keep it simple. We don't need any added complications.

Here's a link to the special discount for that Sean is offering new members of All Star Options.

I agree wholeheartedly with Sean's take on the market. You can see it in the video using the link above.

And I believe he has the options strategies — backed by All Star Charts research — that can help you make the most of the opportunities we'll see.

We also brought back the popular 'unlimited membership' so you never miss out on All Star Options alerts.

But these offers will be gone before Christmas. Click here now to lock in your savings.
