Every 7 days, little-known "Penny options" rise as much as 1,017%

A rare type of options trade turns ordinary
companies into high-flying penny stocks.

Dear Reader,

It takes Jeff Clark an entire week to find a single "Penny option."

He has to look at over 500 companies... apply 3 technical indicators to each one... and carefully search for hidden details in the options market...

But the effort is worth it – because every time Jeff finds a true "Penny option," readers of his S&A Short Report make a fortune.

• On March 27, Jeff found a Penny option for Dendreon (DNDN). Less than 48 hours after recommending it– one reader profited by 1,017%. 

• That same month, Jeff found a Penny option for OmniVision (OVTI). Less than 6 days after recommending it – readers saw 132% gains.

What makes "Penny options" so profitable is that they can turn any company into a penny stock... no matter how big it is. Blue chips... oil giants... tech firms...

Even just a tiny jump in share price can result in double-, triple-, even quadruple- digit gains, very quickly. Take Encore Wire (WIRE), for example.

In January, this Texas-based copper maker was trading for $21 per share – 1 to 200 times higher than a penny stock. But on the 22nd, Jeff found a "Penny option"...

Immediately – he sent out an email alert...

The stock went up three points – and Jeff's "Penny option" play saw 197% gains. Take a look:

What's surprising about "Penny options" is that typically they rise the highest for companies you'd never even consider a penny stock – like Home Depot (HD).

On May 29th, this $79 billion nationwide retailing giant released a "Penny option" most people had no idea existed. Immediately – Jeff alerted his readers...

Even Merrill Lynch (MER) has "Penny options"...

So what are "Penny options," exactly?

Well, ordinary options, as you probably know, allow you to control thousands of stock shares, with just a few hundred dollars.

You can make 5 to 10 TIMES the return that you'd see on the regular stock trade – in just a fraction of the time. But here's the thing...

Although options are typically very cheap, most people don't know about "Penny options," which are even cheaper. At such low prices you take on less risk, and your odds of making a profit on even the slightest move in the stock can skyrocket.

Take American Airlines (AMR), for example.

In July, Jeff predicted this $27 stock would quickly take off... and carefully pored through the available options to take full advantage. He found 2 plays.

Play #1: AMRHE. Cost: $3.30.

This was the typical play.

Play #2: AMRHE/AMRHF. Cost: $2.45.

This was the "Penny option." Even the most experienced options traders had no idea this Penny option existed. It's not prominently listed on Yahoo! Finance. You probably wouldn't hear about it by calling your broker.

But after 20 years of experience running his own money management firm for some of California's richest people... and after teaching MBA classes for almost as long... Jeff Clark was able to find Play #2 – the "Penny option" that gave more reward, with much less risk.

The difference?

By reducing the cost of the play by 85 cents on the "Penny option," Jeff's readers were assured 100% in gains if the stock rose just a little over 2 points... compared to 4 points with Play #1.

That may not sound like much, but in the options world every penny you save can mean the difference between losing money... and quadruple-digit gains.

This trade is still playing out. Jeff expects his readers who took advantage of this opportunity to make at least 150% gains.

Why do I say that? Because Jeff has already done this in the past...

Take Dendreon (DNDN), for example.

In March, this Seattle-based biotech firm was hit with an exciting situation: They were about to receive final FDA results on their newest anti-cancer drug...

Naturally, nobody knew what would happen.

If the FDA approved, the stock would soar. If not, it would tank. It was the sort of situation biotech investors spend months trying to predict...

Days before the decision... on March 27... Jeff discovered a "Penny option" for the stock... a little-known play that, if done right, literally could not lose money (by netting a small gain at worst) but promised huge profits if the FDA announced good news for Dendreon (DNDN)...

What happened next made some people a fortune. Take a look:

On March 27th – Jeff sent out his email alert... 3 days later, the FDA gave approval... and the stock skyrocketed 314%.

Gains of 1,017%... 888%... and 671% were also reported by S&A Short Report readers who took advantage of Jeff's "Penny options" alert for this situation.

The fact is, Jeff's readers have been getting rich off "Penny options" for the past 2 years, ever since we launched the S&A Short Report...

Here's just a SNAPSHOT of what Jeff has accomplished...

• 220% gain in 18 days on PF Changs (PFCB)
• 109% gain in 15 days on Johnson & Johnson (JNJ)
• 100% gain in 8 HOURS on Glamis Gold (GLG)

If you'd put $5,000 into each of Jeff's S&A Short Report trade recommendations since 2005, and a collection of his earlier gains, you'd be sitting on $443,119 today in pure profit.

The S&A Short Report was first launched 2 years ago, when Jeff decided to retire from his career as a professional trader and money manager.

Until then, he'd spent the past 20 years running his own exclusive money management firm in San Francisco.

Jeff managed over $100 million for some of California's wealthiest citizens – entrepreneurs, CEOs, professional traders...

One of his accounts was worth $40 million. Another, $22 million. The smallest account he'd consider managing was $250,000.

To manage that kind of money and keep wealthy clients happy... you've got to generate profits consistently on every single trade. And Jeff carries that same philosophy with him today with his research using penny options.

Most people have no idea "Penny options" exist...

As I'll explain, that's because "Penny options" are one secret of a 3-step trading strategy Jeff developed and has been using for the past 20 years for his wealthy California clients. Until recently, it was impossible for regular folks like you and me to get access to Jeff's knowledge and expertise...

The good news is: In this letter, I'm going to show you exactly how Jeff's trading strategy works... and how to take advantage of "Penny options" for yourself... starting NEXT WEEK.

Monday – by 8 P.M. Eastern time – you'll receive your first email alert describing
Jeff's newest pick.

Like the majority of Jeff's options plays, this one could double your money – by next Friday, or even sooner.

Could it turn a $5,000 stake into $64,250 in 2 DAYS?

It's happened before... 

1st Secret Key to Spotting the Perfect Trade
Use Options for Bigger and Faster Gains

It's important that you know Jeff's approach is strictly a trading system.

If you're looking to conservatively sit on a position for years, even decades, then this system is not for you.

The gains are often lightning quick:  

• You could have made 233% in 4 days on Carnival Corp (CCL)

• You could have made 150% in 4 days on Toll Brothers (TOL)

• You could have made 138% in 1 day on Countrywide (CFC)

Jeff has spent the past twenty years perfecting a strategy that pinpoints PATTERNs – highly predictable movements in the market.

At the core of this strategy, he has THREE secret keys for identifying and cashing in on recommended trades and options plays.

Why options? For one reason, they cost less to buy now than ever before.

Or, as Barron's put it recently, right now you can choose from "a sea of cheap options."

And with options, as I mentioned earlier, you have a chance to make 5-10 times the gains you'd normally see in a stock.

Take a pattern Jeff spotted in Amazon (AMZN) – the online bookseller.

You could have made money on this pattern in 2 ways.

One was through a regular stock pick. The other was through an options play.

Both made big gains, but the options play went up 300% in 14 days – 10 times as much as the regular move... in half the time.

The point is: Options can make MORE money, much FASTER than regular stock movement.

Naturally, you might be wondering if options are risky.

The truth is, every investment involves risk, but if you can spot the right pattern early enough... and find the best option... you can manage your risk while improving your odds.

That brings me to Jeff's second secret key...

2nd Secret Key to Spotting the Perfect Trade
Make Money NO MATTER WHAT
Happens to the Stock Market

If you examine the different American stock markets... you'll find roughly 2,848 publicly traded stocks.

Each and every one of these stocks will experience potentially hundreds of "price swings" – both up and down – over the next 12 months.

Most people ignore these swings... But the fact is – you can make money on each one of them, by spotting the PATTERNs they form.

And that's exactly what Jeff does. Here's an example of one of the best plays of his career...

Consider this chart for Strayer Education (STRA), an online classroom business...

As you can see, in just 4 months, STRA experienced 34 different price swings.

To most options traders, each swing offers a ripe trading opportunity. You'd only have to guess where the stock will swing next to make a decent chunk of money.

But when Jeff applies his strategy, you see that in fact each swing is a tiny part of a MUCH BIGGER PATTERN that can make you a fortune.

Take a look: Here's the same chart, analyzed using Jeff's strategy...

As you can see, Jeff pinpoints a swift and vicious DOWN pattern on May 1st.

In 2 days, the stock tanks 20 points, netting 1,285% gains for the put option (an option that makes money when stocks fall). 

You could have turned $5,000 into $64,250 in 2 DAYS on that pattern, simply by acting on an email alert from Jeff.

Jeff can spot these patterns on the upswing too. As I mentioned earlier, that's the benefit of options. You can make money on the stock no matter which direction it's headed, up or down...

In fact, you can make a killing. Here's a recent example...

Take a look at this chart for Ford Motor Company (F). To the naked eye, it looks to be in pretty bad shape, nose-diving for 8 straight months...

But look what happens when Jeff analyzes it...

On July 18th, Jeff spots a break-out pattern... an "UP" trend.

An email alert was immediately sent out, recommending the Ford call options (an option that makes money when the stock rises).

You could have made a 200% GAIN in 27 days trading that pattern. That turns a $5,000 stake into $15,000 – on one play.

That's the power of options. That's why most traders pursue option trading in the first place. And that's why for 20 years California's wealthiest investors entrusted Jeff Clark with their fortunes.

As I mentioned earlier, Jeff has been successfully trading stocks and options for the past two decades. His track record is unbelievable:

In the past 2 years, you could have made $443,119 in profit, just by putting $5,000 into each of Jeff's trade recommendations and a collection of his earlier gains.

How does he generate such incredible gains? After 20 years, Jeff has the ability to apply his strategy with consistent precision...

Let me show you in more detail...

Consider this chart for Amazon (AMZN).

Do you see a pattern here? Most people don't. But take a closer look...

See the 3 spikes at the top?

That's a classic "head-and-shoulders" pattern, a sure signal the stock is getting ready to TANK.

In this case, the pattern's distorted, making it difficult to spot...

A "DOWN" pattern appears on January 11th...

Jeff pulls the trigger. The stock tanks. And his recommended option play gains 158% in 4 days – he closed the trade less than 3 weeks later.

The pattern in this example is a "head-and-shoulders" pattern. There are other patterns, like a "wedge" pattern, "triangle" pattern, and "flag" pattern.

You don't have to worry about knowing which pattern is which. The point is, Jeff's strategy can break down stock charts according to pattern – and if you can spot a classic pattern early enough, you can make a fortune.

How to Turn $5,000 into $10,000
 in Less Than 8 Hours

It's no secret gold is in a major bull market right now.

The price has more than doubled since 2002. The World Gold Council recently reported demand for gold increased by 7,802 TONS last year.

But what most people don't realize is that demand for gold creates an extremely predictable pattern, whether it's a bull or a bear market...

These patterns always develop very quickly. If you can spot them early enough to pull the trigger, you can make a lot of money – very fast – trading gold.

That's why Jeff recently applied his strategy to over 500 different gold companies... Miners, explorers, precious metals funds...

On the morning of June 6, 2006, he found a DOWN pattern emerging in Glamis Gold (GLG) ...

Immediately, Jeff sent out an email alert to his readers, giving them two ways to play this pattern using options:

PLAY #1: Buy the GLG July 30 puts (GLGSF) up to $0.55.

PLAY #2: Buy the GLG July 35 puts (GLGSG) up to $1.80.

At the time, he wrote:

"We're looking for a double on this trade. And the odds of that happening look pretty good to me, especially if the gold sector trades weak."

Sure enough, GLG took an 8% dive...

And Jeff's Play #1 made gains of 100% in LESS THAN 8 HOURS, while Play #2 went up 105% just one day later.

Take a look:

As you can tell, a play that goes up 100% in just 8 hours is not your typical buy-and-hold play. You can't turn your computer off for a week and expect to take advantage of these kinds of gains.

Options trading, especially with Jeff's strategy, requires an aggressive mentality. The more attuned you are to Jeff's alerts... the better you'll make out.

If you'd waited even just a few hours after Jeff issued a buy on Glamis, you would have missed out on this huge, fast winner.

But those who did get in could have turned $5,000 into $10,000 in 8 hours.

That's a $5,000 profit on a single play. Jeff's readers who put $10,000 into the play could have cashed out with as much as $20,000.

The truth is, Jeff identifies hundreds of potential options plays, every single week.

How do you know which ones to execute... and how do you know the perfect time to pull the trigger?

That's where Jeff Clark's professional experience and expertise comes into play...

For Jeff, identifying when it's time to exit boils down to one key factor...

3rd Secret Key to Spotting the Perfect Trade

Jeff's three-pronged strategy has an uncanny accuracy at targeting plays... when to enter them... and the best way to maximize your profits.

I don't want to dedicate too much time to it in this letter... because Jeff already wrote a Research Report that lays out his strategy in full detail.

It's called: The New Intelligence – How to Make a Fortune Spotting the Perfect Trade.

• His THREE secret rules for spotting patterns, including his proprietary timing trigger
• What to say to your broker
• When to buy "penny options," and how many you should purchase
• Risk reduction strategies...

I'm going to send you a copy of this report, free of charge.

How can I do this?

Because we signed an exclusive contract with Jeff that gives you complete, weekly access to his best picks.

Jeff has shut down his brokerage business. He's retiring. He wants to spend more time with his lovely wife and two young sons.

But he wants to continue with his investment research. Jeff's passion is making money in the markets. He still wakes up at 3 a.m. most days to study charts and look for the best plays of the week. That's why in 2004 he approached us about publishing his trading recommendations.

Our contract guarantees we'll have his expertise on staff. That means you can tap into the mind of one of the world's top options specialists at 1/5th the price his lowest net-worth client would typically have had to pay.

But the truth is, as you'll soon find out, you could easily make 50-100 times the cost of Jeff's research back in just your first two weeks...

In fact, it could happen sooner than you realize.

Jeff has just identified a pattern that should amount to one of the biggest, fastest, most profitable plays he's made in the last four years.

According to Jeff, you could make FIVE TIMES your money on one play as this pattern plays out...

But you have to be ready. The email alert could trigger any day now.

Let me give you the full details...

Gold's Next Major Move

Take a look for yourself. Here's a chart of the Gold Bugs Index (HUI)...

See the "Head-and-Shoulders" pattern?

Last July 12th, it was spotted using Jeff's three-pronged strategy. Jeff immediately sent out an email alert, predicting a sharp fall in gold.

Sure enough, the Gold Bugs Index took a 40-point dive...

But Jeff DID NOT issue an options play.

Why?

Because according to Jeff, this recent Head-and-Shoulders pattern is only a prelude to another, much BIGGER pattern that should be the single biggest move in the gold market in the last four years.

As Jeff explained in a recent email:

"It's going to be big. Really big. And it's going to happen fast. For people who see it coming, you could realistically make a 500% return."

Let me show you what I mean...

Take another look at the same chart (the Gold Bugs Index).

Do you see how the "Head-and-Shoulders" pattern attempts to re-surface again and again at far right?

A new "head" pops up every 3 or 4 months.

According to Jeff, it's only a matter of time before these smaller patterns stop – and Gold's Next Big Move begins...

When it does, Jeff will pick it off and issue an immediate trigger point. He'll send out an email alert. It'll happen very quickly.

Those who are familiar with Jeff's track record when it comes to trading gold are understandably very excited about this Next Big Move. As you'll see... predicting moves in the gold market is Jeff's specialty.

For example, last November, he predicted the Gold Bugs Index (HUI) would soar 100 points in 6 months... which it did, climbing 109 points.

His trade recommendations have been equally successful:

• Northgate Minerals (NXG), a junior gold explorer, shot up 137%.
  
  
• Desert Sun Mining (DEZ), a small gold company, went up 77% in 90 days.

• Jeff's safe play – the Rydex Precious Metals Fund (RYPMX) – went up 21%.

• Jeff's options recommendation on Newmont (NEM) – a large mining company – went up 80% in just three days!

And of course, the two options plays on Glamis Gold (GLG) I mentioned earlier, netted gains of 100% in 8 hours and 105% in 3 days. Remember – that was based on only a small 8% increase in the price of the stock...

So consider this: If an 8% move can double your money... what do you think will happen when the gold market EXPLODES???

Make 5-Times Your Money
Trading Gold

Jeff has been writing about and tracking this move for months now... and has his sights on several gold plays, one of which he believes could easily return 5-times your money or more, in a very short period of time.

All the fundamentals are in place...

Jeff's simply waiting for his proprietary trigger to fall into place before alerting his readers to execute the trade. 

But let me make something clear...

To take full advantage of this play, you should be an active trader, fully prepared to execute a trade within a couple days notice from Jeff.

Jeff's email alerts will arrive in your inbox each Monday afternoon. So if you go an entire week without checking your email... you could easily miss Jeff's gold options play.

You make a decision to follow Jeff's advice, then immediately execute the trade.

If you're comfortable with that kind of aggressive trading, then you have the right mindset to take advantage of Jeff's research... and it's in your best financial interest to know everything you can about Jeff's trading strategy... 

As soon as you sign up for Jeff's research service – The S&A Short Report – you'll immediately be in a position to receive Jeff's email alert for this pick...

Jeff Clark Turns $5,000
into $443,119

By becoming a new subscriber of our weekly S&A Short Report, you'll be one of a small group of people with exclusive access to Jeff's research... to the kind of picks that netted:

• 343% in 13 days on Martha Stewart (MSO)
• 269% in 35 days on Overstock.com (OSTK)
• 110% in 22 days on Wynn Resorts (WYNN)

If you'd put $5,000 into each one of Jeff's recommendations and a collection of his earlier gains, you'd be sitting on a possible $443,119 in profit today.

That's an average of $110,799 over the course of a year.

Could you use an extra $100,000+ next year? How much would you pay to secure that kind of profit?

The fact is, you're simply not going to find a research service that performs as consistently well as the S&A Short Report...

And you certainly won't find a trading system that performs with better accuracy than Jeff's.

That's because Jeff Clark is a financial pro.

He's used this system for the past 20 years for his wealthy California clients.

He's run a $100 million brokerage firm. He's taught advanced MBA courses in options trading, behavioral finance, and securities pricing. He's even developed an entire course outline for MBA programs.

Unlike most brokers, Jeff is fully licensed... That means he can supervise other brokers, give investment advice, and actually create options contracts if he wants to.

In other words, he's done all there is to do. He's arguably one of the best options specialists in the world.

Now he's left the business of running a brokerage house and money management company. But he wants to continue picking winning plays.

Jeff's experience and expertise is extremely valuable.

For the past 20 years, only 100 of the wealthiest people in the country have been allowed to profit from Jeff's research.

To be one of Jeff's clients, your account minimum had to be $250,000. And you had to pay a minimum of $5,000 for his research.

So Jeff's research does not come cheap...

One full year of the S&A Short Report costs $2,000. And it's worth every penny. As one of Jeff's subscribers recently wrote to us:

Jeff Clark is, without a doubt, the best trader I know. To have access to his services for just $2,000 a year is a steal. But don't just take my word for it...

Before we hired Jeff Clark, we wanted to hear from the people who have been trusting him with their money for the past 20 years. Here's what we learned...
