27% profits every 20 days?
This is what Nic Chahine averages with his options buys. Not selling covered calls or spreads... BUYING options. Most traders don't even have a winning percentage of 27% buying options. He has an 83% win rate. Here's how he does it.
Advanced Micro Devices, Inc (NASDAQ:AMD) and GameStop Corporation (NYSE:GME) have created double bottom and triple bottom patterns on the daily chart.
A double bottom pattern is a reversal indicator that shows a stock has dropped to a key support level, rebounded, back tested the level as support and is likely to rebound again. It's possible the stock may retest the level as support again, creating a triple bottom or even quadruple bottom pattern.
The formation is always identified after a security has dropped in price and is at the bottom of a downtrend, whereas a bearish double top pattern is always found in an uptrend. A spike in volume confirms the double bottom pattern was recognized and subsequent increasing volume may indicate the stock will reverse into an uptrend.
- Aggressive bullish traders may choose to take a position when the stock’s volume spikes after the second retest of the support level. Conservative bullish traders may wait to take a position when the stock’s share price has surpassed the level of the initial rebound (the high before the second bounce from the support level).
- Bearish traders may choose to open a short position if the stock rejects at the level of the first rebound or if the stock falls beneath the key support level at which it created a double bottom pattern.

The GameStop Chart: GameStop printed a double bottom pattern on its daily chart on Tuesday and Wednesday, and on Thursday the stock attempted to break up from the formation but rejected near a resistance level at $116.

- GameStop was trading on well below-average-volume on Thursday, which indicates the stock may be in a period of consolidation.
- GameStop has resistance above at $116.90 and $129.50 and support below at $99.97 and $86.
