August 2024 Weekly Options Recap
In August 2024 we published 15 weekly options trade ideas that have since closed. 87% closed at a potential gain, with an average potential gain of 77% and the largest potential gain of +231% on FTNT. Here is every one, win or loss.
How these figures are measured
Each percentage is measured from a recorded entry price to a recorded exit price. Every position we publish is a model position, tracked on paper against real delayed market quotes. We write alerts in the evening, while trading is closed. The entry is the best price the desk could achieve on the following trading day. Where no entry was recorded, the percentage is measured from the last close, and the row says so. For model trades up to mid-July 2026, the exit is the exit price Ian recorded when the position closed. For model positions tracked since late July 2026, it is the highest price the option reached between entry and expiry, or the published 60 per cent stop, whichever came first. No member is claimed to have bought or sold at those prices. Losses appear beside wins. The figures exclude individual fills, fees, taxes and execution differences, and they show potential profit, never a return anyone received.
