  • TSME #029: Stock Trading with Discipline

    Ka Pang is probably one of Tyrone Jackson’s most curious students. He is a successful graphic designer turned stock market trader.

    Born in Hong Kong, Ka came to the United States when he was ten years old. His parents were in the restaurant business and didn’t know much about the stock market. Ka enjoyed working and started to save money. Eventually he graduated to the thought: what do you with that money, other than spend it?

    When it came to the stock market, Ka lacked a good system; everything was trial and error at first. When he joined The Wealthy Investor Program he learned a disciplined system, which he says simplified and slowed down the game for him. That discipline consists of how you allocate your portfolio, how many options to purchase, knowing to always going back to the covered call, and having x number of strategies to employ when the stock market changes. Even just learning to always choose a stock that is in an upward trend, has 4 quarters of top line revenue growth, and pays a dividend changed the game for Ka.

    When Ka entered Tyrone’s Wealthy Investor Program there was a period of just trying to understand everything, almost like learning a new language. He took it one step at a time. Once he understood all the trades and tools in his arsenal, the ah-ha moment was realizing that there is a time and place for each strategy. Once you learn it you want to run out and do it, but the key is learning timing and how to react to the market.

    Ka has made it all the way through to Tyrone’s Mentor Program, the most advanced level. A lot of people who like to trade options choose to trade shorter-dated options. However, Tyrone teaches his students to trade the longer-dated options, called the Long-term Equity Anticipation Securities, or LEAPS. Ka likes the leverage of these trades, that they are cheaper to get into, and that you can make a lot of money for a small movement in the stock price. You also never know what the market is going to do, so by having a longer-dated trade you have more options as to what you can do in response to the market.

    Ka’s number one rule is to not lose the money he already has, which makes him a more conservative trader. He will never abandon covered calls because he equates them to owning rental property - it’s like renting out the stock you already own for guaranteed income. Its easy money that he can then use as leverage to purchase LEAPS, which is his favorite trade in a bull market.

    As long as Ka is bringing in the money to cover his expenses, he can basically consider himself ready to retire. He can picture making up to $15,000 per month just from trading within the next three years.

    Ka’s advice to beginners is that there’s a certain level of risk, but if you don’t start somewhere, get a mentor, and get the education that you need to at least get exposed to it; you’re never going to go anywhere. People are always complaining about their life but they don’t want change, which is counterintuitive. It’s all in the art of the start.

    So master that art and get started right now at TheWealthyInvestor.net! If you are ready to follow monthly trades and get in the game, check out WITradeSchool.com.

  • TSME #028: Managing Risk

    Anytime you put money in the stock market, you are putting it at risk. Tyrone Jackson, The Wealthy Investor, explains that we do this because we can get a higher rater return on our money than if we were to just leave our money in a savings account at 1%. Some stocks are riskier than others to own because their company’s don’t have a great track record of earnings.

    Tyrone's student Crystal Williams joins the show today. She is not only a stock market trader, but also works in the insurance business, so she truly understands how to manage risk.

    Crystal grew up in the Palm Springs area and graduated from The University of Redlands. In 2002 she got a job as an admin assistant for a company in the insurance risk business. She worked closely with her boss who taught her how to underwrite. Eventually, she was able to grow within the company and purchase the prescription drug block of the business.

    After relocating to Long Beach, she found Tyrone Jackson's class through MeetUp.com. Crystal had read some literature about the stock market and was already interested. When she found Tyrone’s program, the covered call strategy alone opened her eyes.

    Crystal's first big ah-ha moment was about a year ago, when she really started to understand the call spreads. It kept her really involved in all the trades she had planned out. She was consistent and believed in the stock that she was trading. Crystal believes what is important is having a strategy and having a plan. Know the stocks you are trading in and stick with them. There’s so many shiny objects that get thrown at us, it is easy to fall of your discipline, but that’s not how you’ll make money.

    If you are constantly trading, you are not really building wealth. Building positions in stocks has been the most profitable for Crystal. She can really look back over the year and see the growth. As Tyrone explains, you do have to pay taxes on trades but not when you are holding a stock because you are simply asset building.

    Having not been an expert in math, Crystal feels that just being involved in numbers has helped her. To succeed in the stock market, it’s about spending the time, evaluating the numbers, tying it all together and understanding the story. Crystal thinks knowing excel also helps because you can create some pretty neat stock spreadsheets to help you plan.

    Crystal likes DOW stocks that are less risk for covered calls and building positions, but she does like to allocate a small portion to growth stocks that have the potential to grow faster than the DOW stocks. She allocates 10% or less of her portfolio to these riskier stock to give her a little excitement.

    Finally, Crystal says there's nothing to be afraid of, especially when you are trading or investing in DOW stocks. The stock market may have a down day, but seeing her stock drop in the news doesn't bother her anymore.

    Manage risk, grow your money, and find financial freedom just like Crystal at TheWealthyInvestor.net.

  • TSME #027: The Money Language

    In the 30's, 40's and 50's, there was no internet. The majority of people didn't even own televisions. This meant that only the very wealthy had access to the stock market and to people who could get them in and out of stocks. Because of the limited information, even those who had access mostly stayed with the names and companies with which they were familiar. The main exceptions were people who actually worked on Wall Street.

    In the 1990's the technological revolution began. Internet connection became dominant and leveled the playing field of the stock market. Now everyone has access to Wall Street. Tyrone's favorite website for researching the stock market is yahoo.com/finance. He uses this research tool to look at a company's profile, 5 year chart, top-line revenue, major shareholders and more, all before logging into his brokerage account to actually execute his trades.

    Yahoo is great for research but it does not give you strategies, trades, and ideas for actually making money in the market. It also does not explain the language and vocabulary of the stock market, which can make beginners feel intimidated.

    Tyrone breaks down stock market terms so that you can speak the money language with fluidity:

    Bull Market: refers to the rising of most stocks, the general forward movement of the stock market

    Bear Market: refers to the general decline of the stock market

    Index: a listing of certain stocks, generally used a measurement of the value of a section of the stock market to determine the overall market's current strength

    Examples:

    Dow Jones Industrial Average – The top 30 stocks in the US stock market

    Standard and Poor’s 500 (S&P 500)- The top 500 stocks in the US stock market

    Divergence: happens when the DOW Jones is up but the S&P 500 is down, or vice versa

    Allocation: the way an investor divides his/her money into different portfolios and stocks for different purposes

    Building a Position: Purchasing shares of a Dow or growth stock and buying more shares when the stock price increases in small increments

    Float: The amount of shares in the public domain to be traded on a daily basis

    Dividend: As a shareholder, your share of a company's profits distributed generally on a quarterly basis

  • TSME #026: Helping Others with Money

    Tyrone Jackson feels that podcasting is a wonderful way of getting his message out to the world. This is a form of service - of helping the general public.

    He only asks that if he helps you, that you in turn, help others. When you start making large sums of money you may find that you can help others; your church, your community, or a charity that you like.

    Normally Tyrone is interviewing other people, so he doesn't often tell his story. However, he recently appeared as a guest on radio personality Debra Mark's show. She interviewed Tyrone on how he got started and why his approach to teaching the stock market works.

    Tyrone Jackson was raised in Staten Island by a single mother in federally subsidized housing. He remembers there never being any money unless it was time for the income tax return. Tyrone took on his mother's money beliefs that life was going to be hard, making money would be a struggle, and that the only way to make more money was to get a job that paid overtime. But Tyrone had a barrel full of dreams and a curiosity about money and how people got wealthy. There was an inner conflict inside him.

    Neighbors and people around Tyrone were moving forward with their lives, moving out of the apartments and into houses. He was curious how that happened. It wasn't until years later that Tyrone realized how powerful your thoughts are. Today he calls that your "millionaire mindset." No matter how much money you earn right now, if you can learn how to think and prioritize like a really rich person, you can become a really rich person.

    Tyrone worked on television for years, and in television you are always wondering when your next gig will be. He learned he needed to put some of his paychecks away somewhere so he would always be okay between gigs. Later he learned the best place to put his money was the stock market. He learned he could open a brokerage account for only $500 and if he kept putting money in every month, then that money would grow. First he would add $50 per week, then $100 per week, then $1000 per month, and that's how he started to build his account.

    Tyrone never thought of himself as a "struggling" actor. He was just on his way to the next gig and setting goals for the next phase of his life. As Debra Mark points out, he has always been a "glass half full" type of guy.

    Years later, Tyrone teaches his stock market approach to people across the country. The Wealthy Investor approach is quite simple. In fact that is Tyrone's strength as a teacher - putting complex ideas about the the stock market into simple terms.

    People are attracted to The Wealthy Investor because you can make lot of money, it's simple, and there's one core trade that gets people hooked. That trade is covered call writing: if you have 100 shares of a stock priced at $39, you can sell an option to someone else to buy those shares away from you when the stock hits $40. You make money for selling that right to buy, or option. For 100 shares, you would take in $100 guaranteed profit.

    People are afraid because we have been conditioned to think that money is a service, that we should be paying someone else to take care of it for us. We believe that the people who handle money are much smarter than we are, but in reality they are not, they are simply doing their jobs. You can save money on the service fees if you learn how to handle your money yourself.

    It is our belief about money, not our education, that determines how much money you make in this life. Tyrone teaches positive beliefs through story telling. However, he doesn't want to have to convince people. The message falls on the people who were meant to hear it.

    Tyrone's advice for people who are ready to make changes is to stop hanging out with broke people. Birds of a feather stick together. We have a tendency to huddle together with people who are like us in our thinking and that is going to affect your money.

    His other piece of advice is this: If all your dreams were to come true, write down what kind of house you would have, what kind of car you would buy, where you would like to live, what your perfect day looks like etc. We call this visualization. Your brain starts to focus on the things that are written down and the things you think about the most.

    You are involved in the active process of creating your life every single day whether you realize it or not. You have appointments, things you focus on, to-do lists, and if wealth and financial freedom are not on that list, you will start to focus on the reality that you see around you every day as opposed to the reality that you want.

    So focus on the reality you want, upgrade your friends, and remember to help others along the way.

  • TSME #024: High Risk Stocks

    Tyrone Jackson has been teaching for almost 10 years and trading for over 20 years, and he always starts by teaching his students on and offline to write covered calls. This is a great place to start because it produces guaranteed residual income. We want to own stocks that pay dividends and that allow us to sell call options.

    There are always going to be people who like high risk stocks. They think if they buy these risky stocks for very cheap right before the stock sky rockets they will make quick money. The problem is this pattern rarely happens. You are better off going with the more established names with consistent top line revenue.

    Here are a few examples of high risk stocks that traders have been tempted to invest in for the past few years:

    Tesla

    A lot of people got excited about Tesla automobiles and recognized their opportunity to have a significant impact on the auto buying market. Had you bought the stock five years ago with a $1,000 investment, today your shares would be worth $8,600. Its not that the company is so great, it’s just that investors got very excited about what Tesla was doing. However this is a high risk stock because the company does not have a long track record, it does not pay a dividend, and it doesn’t have a history of top line revenue. The revenue hasn’t been there long enough for us to follow it as a disciplined investor.

    Go Pro

    You’ve seen the Go Pro cameras; they are very cool products to own and they capture beautiful video. However, we in the Wealthy Investor program, never purchase stocks from companies that only have one product. Yes they have different version of the same product, but Go Pro could easily be dominated by a bigger player. A company like Apple could come out with their version of this camera tomorrow and knock Go Pro out of the game, because Apple has a very loyal fan base. If you’ve noticed over the past few years the Go Pro shares has gone from a high of $90 per share down to $25 per share.

    Pandora

    The problem with Pandora stock is, if Apple decided to launch a music service that rivaled them, Apple would take the market share. Pandora has gone from a high of $37 per share down to $13 per share.

    If you are just starting out, you want to start by investing in lower risk companies. If you grow your account over time on the strength of these low risk companies, in the future you may be able to afford a little more risk.

  • TSME #023: Mutual Funds vs. Stocks

    Some people say, “I would never put my money in the stock market because it’s too risky.” Yes there is risk, but without risk there would be no reward. There are companies in the DOW jones that are less risky because they have proven their revenue - companies like Coca Cola, Disney, Apple etc. In the Wealthy Investor Program we try to balance risk by leaning a little more conservative and having most of our money in DOW stocks.

    Today Tyrone talks with someone well versed in risk. Josh Belanger is an option trading specialist and author of the book Fearless Investing With Options. Josh began working at 19 as a pizza delivery boy. He told one of his regular customers about his dreams of becoming a stock broker, and the customer advised him to get a Series 7. While Josh studied to pass the Series 7 exam he worked on the floor of the Chicago Stock Exchange as a runner - the lowest man on the totem pole. After the test, Josh had a career as a stock broker, or financial adviser.

    After paying his dues, Josh started to see how the internet and technology was changing the industry. He also realized that he wasn’t really learning to play the game of the stock market. He got out of the finance industry and started trading options aggressively. Now Josh is the founder of www.OptionSIZZLE.com where he publishes free daily investing and trading tips and teaches struggling self directed investors how to become more profitable trading options while reducing risk, creating higher chances of success and generating better returns in any type of financial market.

    Having been on the other side, Josh believes that mutual funds are legally stealing everyone's money. The monstrous fees taken by the financial advisors and firms compared to the little amount of money they make you in return is unreasonable. Also, financial advisors are required to operate under so many legal restrictions, that there's not much they are allowed to do to grow your money.

    Now trading on his own and helping others to do so, Josh has focused mainly on options trading. In Tyrone’s Wealthy Investor approach, he teaches LEAPS options trading. In a LEAP, the option has a one year expiration date. Josh’s strategy utilizes shorter time frames; his options usually expire in 30 - 50 days. Josh looks more for income generating opportunities instead of focusing on long term investing or day trading.

    Josh believes that one of the first things you need to understand is implied volatility. Ideally if you buy an option you want the implied volatility levels to be low. If you buy an option, you want to look to sell it. Your fear about what could happen is greater than what really happens in the market. Typically Josh buys an option and sells another option. He does this to reduce the overall cost and increase the probability of success. This would be considered a spread.

    As Tyrone always says, "The Stock Market is a game with a hundred ways to play it." To learn how to build your strategy and get in the game visit WITradeSchool.com.

  • TSME #022: Wealth Building - Frequently Asked Questions

    Tyrone Jackson, The Wealthy Investor, answers the most common questions he is asked about trading and investing:

    1) It all seems so complicated, where do I go to actually open my online brokerage account?

    Prior to the internet you would need a family relationship to someone at a brokerage account to help guide you through the stock market. The stock market was the playground for the rich because you would have to actually follow your stocks in the newspaper to see if they went up or down. It was hard to get rich if you didn’t have access to the information. Well now we all have access to the information online. We can do our research for free. This means that anyone with $500 - $1000 can go to ETrade.com, TDAmeritrade.com, Fidelity.com, or Schwab.com and open an online brokerage account. Once you fund your account you have access to buying and selling stocks.

    However, if you have no financial education you can get yourself into trouble. One of Tyrone Jackson’s first rules is to never buy stocks that are under $20 per share. Those stocks generally don’t have institutional involvement in them. A good rule of thumb is to be in the stocks that the big money is in.

    Be humble enough to know that theres a lot of things you won’t know. Don’t be afraid to ask questions.

    2) How do I know what stocks to start with?

    There are a hundred ways to start investing. The stock market is one game and 100 ways to play it. Simply, start with companies you are familiar with because it will be easier to do research on them. It is also wise to only buy stocks that are in the DOW Jones Industrial Average.

    3) Can you explain what a covered call is?

    Writing a covered call is essentially buying some shares that you are willing to sell the rights to at a higher price, which is called the strike price. Whether or not the stock reaches that higher price, you get paid for that right to buy it. This type of trade can be made as frequently as every week and it can be made in your IRA and your cash account. It is very versatile. The Wealthy Investor program can teach you to build a whole profile around covered call writing.

    Listen to the episode to hear more of Tyrone Jackson's helpful answers.

    You will have access to Wall Street for the rest of your life, but you need a financial education to teach you how to utilize it. Start your education today at WITradeSchool.com. Or download the Tyrone Jackson's FREE eBook at TheWealthyInvestor.net.

  • TSME #021: $12,000 in a Day - Advanced Trading

    Tyrone interviews one of his more advanced students, Patrick Giugliano, about his experience trading so far.

    Patrick started as an engineer but decided he didn’t want to make a career of it. The medical field spoke to him because he enjoyed helping people. Luckily it is in Dr. Giugliano’s nature to flourish in difficult situations because he chose one of the hardest disciplines of medicine: sleep medicine. Eventually Patrick built a private practice and had a long and successful career. Recently he retired and is happy to make trading his main source of income.

    Patrick was attracted to the Wealthy Investor program because Tyrone came from a common background, similar to himself. He also appreciates that Tyrone teaches you to trade like the institutions trade. The institutions, or the big money, refers to the banks, college endowments, insurance companies, and hedge funds that trade a million or more contracts at once. These large trades truly affect the market. By understanding why the institutions trade the way they do, an individual can anticipate moves in the market and ride the coat tails of these companies.

    The first trade that Tyrone teaches is covered call writing because it helps to shift your mindset to see what is possible. Patrick says he doesn’t have a favorite type of covered call because he uses the different types of trades to react to what is happening in the market. For example, in a bull market he would use out of the money calls. On a more advanced level, Patrick is attracted to owning LEAPS, or Long-term Equity Anticipation Securities, because of their extrinsic value and because purchasing a longer option gives you the time to be right.

    When Tyrone teaches more complex derivatives, which are basically buying longer calls, he teaches his students to buy a lot of time because that call option will go up exponentially as the stock moves up and time becomes kind of like an insurance policy.

    Patrick uses compounding by going back and forth between the Delta 30 and the Delta 70. At the end of the cycle he ends up with more contracts than he started with. When he gets to the point where he has doubled his contracts, he then buys a stock like Apple or H&R Block and moves his money out of a trading scenario into a long term investment scenario.

    Planting seeds and making investments to plan for the future is very important. Wealth is a feeling first and when you start to see your account balance rising, it gives you more confidence overall.

    Patrick’s best trade happened recently. A few weeks ago the stock market went down a record 10,000 points in 5 trading days. Then on one day it dropped almost 1,100 points. Although this sounds bad, there was an opportunity because the big money was buying right back in. Patrick saw that the institutions were bringing the market back up and bought a leap at this moment. On that same day he made $12,000.

    Getting a financial education has helped Patrick to create a nest egg for his family and still retire from his job. He will trade for the rest of his life because it's exciting, it keeps his mind going, and it funds his lifestyle.

    Patrick’s advice to new traders is this: the most important thing about the Wealthy Investor program is being able to understand what to do if the market is bullish going up, bearish going down, or if its range bound, so that you can make money no matter what happens. The only way to make money on a regular basis is to be methodical. Even the best traders in the world know that they will only be right 19 out of 20 times, so you have to have a plan.

    And our Wealthy Investor, Tyrone Jackson, agrees. It’s not about making fast money all the time. We want predictable income.

  • TSME #020: Trading Stocks Around Your Lifestyle

    Tyrone Jackson explains that all you need to finance your entire lifestyle is a vision. One of the biggest benefits to having money and having wealth is freedom, the freedom to choose what your life would look like.

    Tyrone interviews his student, actress Valencia Yearwood, who has created a successful and artistic lifestyle for herself. Valencia grew up in Queens, NY. When she was 14 she decided she wanted to be a gynecologist. Being at a specialized high school she was able to double major in medicine and performing arts. After graduating college with a degree in biology, she decided that medicine was not her calling and followed her dance dreams instead. Valencia made it into the Dance Theater Company and traveled all over the world dancing before she hung up her pointe shoes. Afterwards she transitioned into acting and was cast in the Lion King on Broadway. Following an injury that took her off Broadway, Valencia started doing television commercials. You’ve seen her on commercials for companies like Liberty Car Insurance, Fed Ex, Capital One, McDonald’s and more.

    As a dancer, Valencia knew that her career couldn’t last forever so she would have to find another way to have residual income. She came from a middle class family and before meeting Tyrone she did not have a financial education. The most amazing thing about shifting her mindset was seeing that there were possibilities for getting more out of life. Once she started to shift her mindset it didn’t only affect her money- she started to attract abundance in all areas of her life.

    What Valencia likes about the stock market is that she doesn’t have to depend on anyone else to increase her income. She can do it on her own time from her own home. Her favorite trade is writing covered calls because it’s guaranteed, but her second favorite is volatility trading because its not a long term commitment. Last year she had minimal time to trade so she just focused on one leap trade, which ended up doubling her account. That trade taught her the power of focus. Now she would like to get better at trading options and specifically trading front month calls against options.

    Valencia’s advice to beginners is “You don't need a lot of money in order to make money. You need a lot of focus, you need to be open, and you need to partner with someone who can give you the financial education that you need, but that’s really all you need. Stay open and shift your mindset.”
