27% profit every 20 days?

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.


I had become quite bored of Netflix, Inc. (NASDAQ: NFLX)’s content recently, but had kept my subscription because of how comfortable it results when combined with my Alphabet Inc (NASDAQ: GOOGL) (NASDAQ: GOOG) Chromecast.

Last week, however, while traveling in North Eastern Brazil, I plugged my portable device into a TV, opened the Netflix app on my phone, and… boom! I was suddenly faced with uncountable great movies to choose from.

I knew content varied from one country to another, but I had never imagined such a difference. Instead of the usual, lackluster 60 to 70 percent-rated (at best, four out of five star-rated) movies I had become accustomed to, I found a lot of amazing movies.

On Thursday, while going over my RSS feed, I came across a Gizmodo article titled “All the Good Netflix Movies Are in Canada and Brazil,” virtually confirming my anecdotal findings.

As author Christina Warren confirmed, Netflix movies in Brazil were in fact much better. As per analyses conducted by The Streaming Observer and AddonHQ, Canada and Brazil offer the best Netflix content ecosystems. Moreover, The Streaming Observer added, Brazil’s Netflix portal offers 85 movies from IMDb’s Top 250. "Fight Club," "Goodfellas," "City of God," "Leon: The Professional," "Rear Window," "Memento," "Taxi Driver," "Toy Story," "Snatch," "Inglorious Bastards," "The Secret In Their Eyes," "Fargo" … The list of great movies indexed in Brazil’s library that weren’t available in the United States went on and on — check out a full list in the link above.

The reason for this inequality isn't particularly clear to me. However, if you were thinking about solving your problem with a VPN, think again, because most of them have been blocked by the streaming giant.
