Mattress Play

Mattress plays are a great way to hedge yourself against loss, these plays when used cost around 6-10% of our potential gains while eliminating 33% of our worst losses. 

It’s a trade I make month after month after month with few regrets. Here is a recent post I made about the use of Mattress Plays.

At Phil’s Stock World, we offer a number of great reasons to Join. In addition to learning more about Mattress Plays:

What Our Subscribers Have To Say:

This is why I love this site. Blunt truth. While all these financial thieves don their $150 Armani ties and tell you to stay calm, much like the day after 9/11, you tell people to save themselves. Your site is quite possibly one of the best blogs around. Thanks for keeping it "real" and educating many of us lemmings. Keep up the good work.

I have paid many dollars for education, coaching and stupidity! I have also followed dozens of advisories, coaches and newsletters. This is by far the most educational site with the best strategy for this type of whipsaw market! I’ve already started recommending you to my trading buddies. You better get this site ready for some major traffic as people catch on to what you’re doing!

What You Get:

Stock Chart Computer

The Picks: the real reason you’re here. For a detailed overview, check out our past performance.

Please note: Performance is calculated as a percentage gain from the basis at the time the position is closed.  In no way should you get the impression that your entire virtual portfolio can get these returns every week.

Not all trades are taken by all people and not all traders choose to (or have the clearance to) sell options against other positions or have the capital available to add money to trades – all this impacts your individual ability to profit under some aspects of our system.  We have long, short and mid-term trading opportunities for all types of traders!

A sample of the trade ideas our members receive:

The best of the worst, to me, is P&G, and not just because they are literally throwing in the towel – selling their European towel unit, which gives me an excuse to put up another picture of Towelie, but because they’ve done an amazing job integrating Gillette already, growing net income from $1.7Bn a quarter (average) in ’05 to $2.7Bn in Q3 and $2.8Bn in Q4 and they already have a 23% market share in developing countries and the management expects to "derive $14Bn to $16B in synergies from this (Gillette) combination over time. While they may dip down and test the 200 dma at $61 (they’ve come so close, why not at least pay a visit?), we can start accumulating PG for our virtual Long-Term Virtual Portfolio by picking up the Jan ’09 $65 calls for $5.70. We will wait to sell calls against it but if this is a real rally, these guys should come out like champs over time. On Feb 20th, these contracts were trading at $7.75!
