Just wanted to do a quick thread to put y'all up on making money in the stock market, with very little capital. I'm no stock guru or anything like that, but I try to make my living doing this. Here are a few trades that I made earlier this year to show you the power of trading stock options. You can seriously make a great deal in a short amount of time, if you know what you're doing.
Basic Option Info
Call Option-An option to buy assets at an agreed price on or before a particular date.These are normally bought when you think a stock price is going to increase.
Put Option-An option to sell assets at an agreed price on or before a particular date. These are normally bought when you think a stock price is going to decline.
Strike Price-The price at which a put or call option can be exercised.
1 option contract is equivalent to 100 shares of the underlying security (stock). So if I buy 5 call options of Yahoo at a strike price of $25.00 for .20 each, I am spending $100 (excluding commissions). [5 contracts X 100 shares=500 X .20 each=$100 ]
All of these transactions took place over two weekdays. Initially, I bought 43 put contracts of stock BRK.B (Berkshire Hathaway) for .20 each on a Thursday for a total of $920.75 (including commissions). The price of BRK.B (the stock) decreased so the Put option price that I bought increased. I sold all 4300 contracts at .35, so I nearly doubled my money that same day [43 contracts X 100 shares=4300 X .15=$645]. This is a great return, but I really want you to look at later on that day. I took most of my funds and bought 13 Call contracts of LNKD (LinkedIn) @ $1.05 each. LinkedIn was going to announce quarterly earnings that night and there was a rumor that they would be great, so I took a chance and held overnight. The earnings were great and the stock exploded in Afterhours trading. Options don't trade in afterhours, so I had to wait till the next day to sell them. I sold all 13 contracts not long after opening bell for $7.50 each. Here is the math on that one (13 contracts X 100 shares=1300 X 6.45=$8385.00 profit)! This is holding for less than 24 hours...After I sold, the stock continued to climb. I thought it was going to pullback some, so I bought a few put contracts but I lost some of my profit on that as you can see. But this is the POWER OF TRADING OPTIONS. If I had held my original call options on LNKD until later in the day, I would have made over $20,000 IN ONE DAY FROM AN INITIAL INVESTMENT OF NEARLY $1,400.00. Of course, this isn't necessarily an everday occurrence, but it all depends on what you're trading and how much you're risking. At the link below, there is a guy who has been making hundred of thousands trading options and he documents it for everybody.

This is something to look into if you've ever wanted a career in the stock market, but never quite had to money or time to look into it. It's time to stop living paycheck to paycheck. If you have any questions, I'll try to answer them.
