Hey Trader, First off, what a weekend of football! In case you live under a rock, the Kansas City Chiefs defeated the Philadelphia Eagles 38-35 yesterday in Super Bowl LVII. Now, I love a good game, and this one certainly was… but I did lose money betting on the Eagles to win and the under of 50.5 total points to hit. Obviously, I missed on both. Silly for me to bet against the best player on the field, in the league, perhaps maybe ever when it's all said and done, Super Bowl LVII MVP, Patrick Mahomes II. However, I was just hoping a team in the NFC (National Football Conference), in this case the Eagles, was going to win, because I'm a bull at heart, and everyone knows that when NFC teams win the Super Bowl, the market goes up… Everyone does know that, right? Seriously, it's true… Well, kinda. See, there's this totally random correlation between the stock market and the Super Bowl Champion called the "Super Bowl Indicator." It was discovered by American sportswriter Leonard Koppett in the late 1970s, and the premise, in short, is that if the NFC team wins the championship, there will be a bull market… If the AFC (American Football Conference) team wins, we'll have a bear market for the rest of the year. And surprisingly, as of last year, this indicator has a 75% success rate. Now, of course, correlation does not always mean causation, but hey… I put my money where my hopes for the market are. And for the record, just because the Chiefs won, I do not think we'll have a down year in the market. See, the Chiefs won, in short, because they had the best player… The market unfortunately is never that simple to understand or predict. But truth be told, I never really concern myself with how the market behaves as a whole. I'm only ever interested in one thing: Unusual Options Activity. That's following the smartest traders in the world and doing what they do. It's like watching an offense call plays that work again and again and simply running those same plays against your competition. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. And following unusual options flow certainly ain't broke for me. In fact, it's made me the opposite of broke. And I'm not alone in that… My subscribers report gains nearly every single day. And all we do is follow the signals from the scanners. Just this morning we had big winners in SNAP and MSFT: James made $1,100… Todd made $2,500… In just ONE TRADE this morning. That's enough to offset the money I lost betting last night… almost. The point is, no matter who wins the Super Bowl, how high interest rates go, performance on earnings reports, or any other factor that determines market pricing, unusual options activity will show itself. The best, biggest traders will place trades that the scanners pick up, and we'll be right there to follow the signals they produce. Here's to another score. Regards, Andrew Keene
