This is what Nic Chahine averages with his option 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.
Altria Group Inc (NYSE: MO) shares have performed just as the technical crowd thought they would on September 3.
At that time, they thought a breakout above the previous resistance of $43.70 would occur and that a continued move to the upper edge of the long-term uptrend channel at $46 to $48 would play out.

So far, they got their breakout and a part of the expected move higher, and now, technicians say there's no reason to believe Altria shares won't make it up to the forecasted range.
At this point, they note that it looks like the resistance area will come in at around $46, unless Altria takes its time reaching the trend line from here.

• Enterprise value is greater than market capitalization.
• Strong profit margins and huge levered free cash flow on an annual basis are also attractive.
Bearish Points
• Altria does not look cheap if measured by price-to-sales (4.81), price-to-book (19.81) or price-to-earnings (15.58) ratios.
Overall…
Altria looks like it may make the rest of the climb up to the $46 - $47 projected target range.
At that point, it's possible a good percentage of longs will trim their holdings, or exit the stock altogether and wait for a re-entry point in the mid to upper $30s.
