20-Year Pro Trader Reveals His "MoneyLine"

Ditch your indicators and use the "MoneyLine." A simple line tells you when to buy and sell without the guesswork. It’s a line on a chart that’s helped Nic Chahine win 83% of his options buys. Here's how he does it.


  • JMP Securities analyst Jordan Bender reiterated a Market Outperform rating on the shares of Inspired Entertainment Inc (NASDAQ:INSE) with an $18 price target.
  • Aristocrat Gaming chose Inspired as their partner to bring a new virtual sports experience to football fans worldwide through Aristocrat Gaming's multi-year, global licensing agreement with the National Football League (NFL).
  • Aristocrat and the NFL signed a slot machine licensing agreement in 2021, allowing a Virtual Sport product, and two years later, Aristocrat awarded a sublicense to INSE to provide NFL content.
  • The analyst believes the agreement makes logical sense given its market-leading technology, market share, and scale.
  • Content creation is playing an important role as the online gaming ecosystem evolves globally, highlighted by the company increasing online Virtual revenue at a 50%+ CAGR since 2019.
  • In general, popularity of the product is more pronounced across Europe, giving the company incremental content across its various markets, the analyst noted.
  • That said, online operators in the U.S. have been increasingly positive on the ability to localize content to end-users. The analyst believes INSE's ability to use local NFL teams will resonate well as online gaming grows in the U.S.
  • The analyst also thinks having a name like the NFL to offer customers will serve as a catalyst in promoting Virtual Sports within online apps toward sports-minded end-users.
  • INSE's emergence of online industries in the U.S. opens it up to multi-billion dollar opportunities, said the analyst.
  • The analyst noted that adding NFL content will highlight to B2C operators that virtual sports can target the core sports betting customer and help increase underlying revenue.
  • Price Action: INSE shares are trading higher by 2.90% at $13.12 on the last check Monday.
