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.


On Tuesday, Cathie Wood’s Ark Invest continued its aggressive buying of Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:TSLA) shares, despite the electric vehicle giant’s earnings miss.

The TSLA Trade

Ark Invest purchased a total of 29,230 shares of Tesla across its ARK Innovation ETF (NYSE:ARKK), ARK Autonomous Technology & Robotics ETF (BATS:ARKQ), and ARK Next Generation Internet ETF (NYSE:ARKW). The purchase came after Tesla’s Q1 earnings report revealed a year-over-year revenue drop of 9%, missing Wall Street’s consensus estimate.

The value of the Tesla shares purchased by Ark Invest, based on the closing price of $144.68 on Tuesday, amounts to approximately $4.3 million. This move follows Ark Invest’s acquisition of over $17 million in Tesla shares the previous day, ahead of the first quarter results announcement.
