All this week, Sleuth guest contributor and options expert Steve Sarnoff has been sharing his most potent bank bulging secrets. Each one of them a gem, unearthed from a 30-year career as a top-gun market analyst.

Today, I’m going to reveal the biggest secret of them all. And perhaps the one and only reason you should start trading options right now – if you like making a lot of money, fast! It’s a simple strategy that you can use to squeeze penny stock sized gains out of even the biggest blue chips.

It’s why market legend Paul Sarnoff (Steve’s dad) said options are: “The best… Perhaps on the only way to get rich very quickly.”

I’m talking about the secret of “Super-Leverage.”

In a nutshell, “Super-Leverage” allows you to turn a small upfront investment into a potentially life changing payday.

Let me show you how…

When you buy an options contract you are buying the right (not the obligation) to buy 100 underlying shares at a specific price. But, you don’t pay anywhere near what those 100 shares might cost on the open market.

For example:

Steve recommended buying Navistar January $20 calls for $120. At the time, the shares were trading for $16.92.

His charts couldn’t have been more on the money. By the end of that week, the shares were up to $19.59 — a 16% jump.  When it was all over, by the first week of December, the shares topped out at $29.55 a share.  And the options he had recommended were worth $1,150 — an incredible jump of 858%.

You could have bought 10 options for $1,200, and less than two months later, you could have cashed out with $10,300!

That’s the power of “Super-Leverage.”

Can you see why options and “Super-Leverage” can make you rich, quick? Limited risk with unlimited gain is the perfect recipe for explosive profit.

And that’s why, especially now, I urge you to add options to your trading arsenal if you haven’t already. With the market the way it is now, “Super-Leverage” allows you to get in on the action without, gambling your life savings.
