An Important Announcement About Your Profit Catalyst Alert Subscription

By Jim Pearce • February 21, 2019

I’d like to share some important and exciting news about your Profit Catalyst Alert subscription.

Here at Investing Daily, we have made it our mission to help our subscribers take one more step toward a more prosperous future. That often comes in the form of a compelling new investment opportunity. Other times, it’s a calming message in the midst of a chaotic market. But it can also be the creation of a new product that aligns more closely with our subscribers’ needs.

Today, we’re happy to announce an exciting partnership we recently entered into with our friends at the trading research firm Profitable Trading. If you’re not familiar with Profitable Trading, they’ve been publishing trading recommendations for more than five years now. And to say they’re good at it is an understatement, as explained below.

By partnering with Profitable Trading, we’re now able to leverage our combined strengths and knowledge of profitable trading strategies that offer the kind of exciting returns you’re interested in.

One of those combinations is happening with Profit Catalyst Alert. Starting next week, all of our Profit Catalyst Alert subscribers will become full subscribers to the Profit Amplifier trading service published by Profitable Trading. Like Profit Catalyst Alert, Profit Amplifier is focused on trading options to turn small stock moves into big gains.

Profit Amplifier is managed by Amber Hestla, an award-winning analyst with nearly a decade in the field. Amber uses algorithm-based strategies to zero-in on the best stocks that are ripe for options trades, and it’s been incredibly effective. You will soon be getting a message from Amber introducing herself and explaining more about her very successful trading system.

Amber will also share the details on the Profit Amplifier Momentum (PAM) indicator she developed just for Profit Amplifier. According to Amber’s exhaustive backtesting, PAM delivers timely “buy” and “sell” signals that determine when to buy calls and puts, allowing you to make money in good times and bad.

PAM is the latest addition to Amber’s toolbox of successful algorithm-based indicators. Another test she developed, the Income Trader Volatility (ITV) indicator, has notched 249 winners out of 272 closed trades and won her the MTA’s Charles H. Dow award for outstanding research in technical analysis in 2015.

We appreciate all the hard work that Linda has done on behalf of Profit Catalyst Alert and wish her well on the next steps in her career. Linda recently provided final guidance on the PCA portfolio holdings, and passes on these parting sentiments:

“I would like to personally thank you for being part of this community. I hope you have found the service educational, entertaining and most importantly, profitable. I trust you will be in good hands with Amber Hestla and I wish you the best.”

For now, there’s nothing much you need to do on your end while we make this change. I recommend adding “Research@profitabletrading.com” to your email’s address book to ensure your new Profit Amplifier trades arrive in your inbox without any issues.

You’ll be receiving your credentials to Profit Amplifier that can be used at ProfitableTrading.com on or before March 1. In the meantime, feel free to contact our Customer Service team at 1-800-832-2330 if you have any questions that cannot wait until then.

Sincerely,

Jim Pearce
Chief Investment Strategist

Linda, I have enjoyed and profited from your recommendations and insight. You are a big part of why I joined Wealth Society! I wish you well in your new endeavors. Thanks!

Linda, your service is the original reason I became a Wealth Society member and I have profited from the membership over the years. I am sorry to lose your expertise and methods. I hope I can find your wherever you land and wish you the best in the future.

Jim, This is a huge shame. Linda was one of the best analyst on this site. Well I don’t want to disparage any others they are all very impressive, but I took a particular liking to her picks and really sorry to see her go….

Jim,

Is there another Investing Daily service that focuses on Small and/or Mid Cap stock holdings? It sounds like the Profit Amplifier service is exclusively trading options.

Thanks,
-Aaron

Hi Aaron. Our Radical Wealth Alliance service focuses exclusively on small-cap stocks with large upside potential. If you’d prefer to receive access to that service in lieu of a Profit Amplifier subscription, please give our customer service team a call at (800) 832-2330.

Jim,
I have been a subscriber with Investing Daily for many, many years, and publications have come and go throughout all the years. I’m okay with all of that but with only one challenge. Your parting analyst gives his/her final thoughts on what to sell/hold and there is never anymore follow-up afterwards on any of the ones they suggest to hold. BTP is one recent example of that, and now PCA is another. As a subscriber I feel I am left out here hanging with no future advice. My question is, does anyone continue to monitor/review these outstanding “holds” and if/when its time to sell them, will we get an alert, or are we just left out here on our own to monitor since the publication has been eliminated?

Jim,
I also have the same concern. I still hold positions from Energy Strategist and have multiple positions in the three newsletters that are being discontinued. The newsletters are sources of professional buy AND sell advice, and discontinuing coverage after you recommended buying a stock seems to be a dereliction of professional duty. If I had the expertise to make good sell decisions, I would also know how to buy and I would not need the newsletter to begin with. I subscribe to get professional advice, and we are all being dropped into a lifeboat without charts and a sextant. I would like to see the ID analysts follow these stocks until they are sold.
Also, when are the two new services getting a link on the ID website?
Thank you.
DL

Just got an email, Jim,

About their ANF trade. Will take it for a spin with a tiny position. As you would expect, did it as a spread…cutting my investment in half, but also limiting the potential $$$ return.

Maria R

03/01/19 ‐ 3:36pm ET March 1, 2019 at 3:36pm ET

Hi Roger: Thanks in advance for your response. Trying to figure out: so it was a debit call spread? STO Mar 19 $22 C BTO Mar 19 $17 C or there abouts?

Roger Dehring

03/01/19 ‐ 3:49pm ET March 1, 2019 at 3:49pm ET

BOUGHT the 15-MAR 22 Calls and SOLD the 15-MAR 24 Calls for a net debit of -$0.86. Have a limit order in to close the entire position at $1.45.

Maria R

03/01/19 ‐ 4:11pm ET March 1, 2019 at 4:11pm ET

thanks again, Roger. You are a gem.

Closed my trade at the open, Maria,

For $1.41, earning a 53% profit (after commissions). Very good chance could have made more had I waited until later today or in the week. But with the market seemingly down the last week or so, took my +50% profits.

Thanks, Roger. I always follow your posts. Learned a lot from them.

Couple questions, Jim,

First, always liked Linda’s recommendations. Is she no longer with ID?

Although I received an alert for ANF by email, have not received anything that allows me to sign into Profitable Trading. Will that be coming? Or has our information been forwarded to them so we can just go there and sign in?

Thanks, Jim.

Brenton Flynn

Hi Roger. Glad to hear you received the ANF trade from Amber. You should have received an email with login instructions late last week. My apologies if you were left off of that email by accident. You should be able to log in using your current Investing Daily credentials at http://www.profitabletrading.com.

Roger Dehring

03/04/19 ‐ 11:33am ET March 4, 2019 at 11:33am ET

Didn’t receive the email, Brenton,

Although after putting on the trade I went hunting. Found their website and after searching a bit, found where you can sign in and was able to do so. Will their site be linked to all the ID sites above so we can get to her site from here?

Their site isn’t all that clear to follow, but expect some of that is my not being familiar with it. Looking at her historical trades, seems to be a gap from mid-year 2018 until now. Is that accurate, or didn’t I find those trades?

Thanks

Rick

03/06/19 ‐ 12:22pm ET March 6, 2019 at 12:22pm ET

I did not receive an email with credentials either. What is our next step?

Rick

03/06/19 ‐ 12:29pm ET March 6, 2019 at 12:29pm ET

Brenton, my apologies, I found the email.

Linda, thanks for your insightful and thorough research and recommendations. I enjoyed meeting you a few years ago at the annual(?) Investing Daily conference in Alexandria. I didn’t see a notice for the conference last year. You were a large reason we joined Wealth Society. Wishing you well in your future endeavors. You will be missed.

Is there a resource that we can use to understand how to
1) navigate on the website
2) Setting up alerts. I didnot receive the alert for ANF
3) Is there a way to set text alerts like we have here

Thanks

On the http://www.profitabletrading.com website… it says my membership is valid for only a year? How would the annual renewals work?

Asjad Shamim

03/06/19 ‐ 1:57pm ET March 6, 2019 at 1:57pm ET

Good point. Same here.
What happens to members which were getting lifetime recommendation here? Is Profit Amplifier providing us only 1 hr membership and then we have to buy thereafter?
