Video summary

Melissa Arma from Stock Swish is hosting a special Labor Day promotion offering viewers the opportunity to join her trading community for the remainder of 2026 and all of 2027. This exclusive offer includes access to her comprehensive classes, which are scheduled for September 26th and 27th, allowing participants ample time to plan their schedules before the event begins. The promotion is specifically designed for the "Golden Gap course bundle," a package that provides tuition for three distinct courses: the main Golden Gap course, a trends class, and an options-focused course. By signing up for this bundle by September 7th, traders can secure these educational resources along with free subscriptions to her options newsletter and market reports until the end of 2027, effectively setting them up for long-term success in the financial markets. The video highlights the benefits of trading with Melissa's guidance, particularly through her proven strategy of shorting stocks, which she has utilized successfully over nearly two decades despite general market uptrends. She illustrates this with specific examples of recent trades, such as a profitable short position in Meta and Apple puts, demonstrating how precise entries and exits can yield significant returns quickly. A key component of her teaching method is a 26-point checklist that helps traders identify stocks with high probability directional bias, early confirmation of moves between 9:30 AM and 10 AM Eastern Time, and favorable risk-to-reward ratios. This structured approach aims to teach viewers not just how to execute trades but how to consistently find opportunities and manage their positions effectively. A major advantage emphasized in the special is the ability to trade on margin with less than $25,000 in a retail account, thanks to recent rule changes that allow for 4-to-1 leverage. Melissa explains that this does not mean risking the entire cash balance if a trade goes against you; rather, traders only lose the difference between their entry price and their stop-loss order. For instance, she clarifies that with a $25,000 account used to buy $100,000 worth of shares, a loss is limited strictly to the specific amount the stock drops below the entry point, not the total value of the position or the full cash deposit. This understanding allows traders to take larger position sizes and potentially earn unlimited income potential while working from home, eliminating the need for daily commutes and office environments. The Labor Day special serves as a final call to action before the holiday on September 7th, with limited seats available in the upcoming classes. Melissa encourages interested individuals to evaluate whether their current schedule allows for trading during morning hours and if they are seeking a new career path that offers flexibility and the ability to work remotely. She notes that many people are realizing the value of working from home after experiences like jury duty, making this an ideal time to transition into professional trading. The bundle price is set at $89.99, significantly lower than standard rates, providing a unique opportunity for those who want to learn a consistent strategy, master both day trading and options, and join a supportive community that continues to offer mentoring sessions even after the classes conclude.

Hello there everyone. Welcome. This is Melissa Arma with the stock swish and I'm doing a huge Labor Day special for those of you that have been wanting to join and do the classes and trade with me. Now you're getting an opportunity. If you want to get in, you can trade with me for the rest of 2026 and all of 2027. It's a huge special and you can do all the classes. So if you have questions or you're interested, the special is running through Labor Day, which is September 7th. You can email me at melissathestockswish.com or call me at 929-3200gap. You can follow me on x, Facebook or YouTube. You can also look for me at TV. I appear on many channels talking about the stock market, the economy. It's been a very interesting time to trade. Again, the market moves based on lots of reasons and we've had a lot of movement this year and volatility. We're getting into a week here now where the Jackson Hole meeting is taking place the end of the week. They're going to be talking about interest rates and that could bring more volatility into the market as well. So, happy 250th birthday, America. Again, this whole year of 2026, we've been celebrating the 250th anniversary of the United States. When you think about it, 250 years ago, they didn't have even have electricity. uh we are so advanced now and we're actually spoiled because we don't know or think ever about what it took to get to this point and I was watching actually a couple days ago or re-watching I should say the John Adams series. It was on HBO was a special if you've never seen that. great cast, really good uh historical perspective of the life of John Adams. And again, when I was watching it, I was thinking, gosh, you know, like how grateful and lucky we are that we have all of the conveniences we have today. And uh it really makes you appreciate, you know, the life that we have and the times that we're living in actually. And I don't think enough people think about those things. So, it's been a great year. lot of celebrations going on all year in the United States and it's not done. It's not done yet. A few more months left until 2027. So, I'm doing a Labor Day special. Great holiday. People can relax. It's for the Golden Gap course bundle. Again, you can do all three classes and get all of my subscriptions till the end of 2027 for the price of the bundle. Talk about that at the end when I'm done. And the benefit is that the class is in September, which is September 26th and 27th. gives you time to plan to take the class. Block off that weekend and you can start trading with me now. You can start trading as soon as you sign up. Your subscriptions begin when you join. So again, I say start out slow before you take the class, but you can get in and start trading. We did a great short today. We did DKS, beautiful short. Again, you can get in, you can start trading, and you know, lots of people want to do that. They're already actively trading. It gives you a feel for what we're doing and then of course you learn it in the classes. So this was a gap that we did. This was August 18th. We did Meta stock closed here, gap down, open, dropped. We did a day trade. This was a short. We entered at 55755. Exited at 548.880. Beautiful trade. Made $11,375 with 1300 shares. So this is an expensive stock. If you wanted to do a put, you could have done a put. You could have done the 550s. Again, it broke 550. I would have done the closest expiration date if you're going to do that as a day trade. Uh we also did do puts in this as well, but just giving you an option here if you wanted to do the option as a day trade, but I did a shares on margin. That's how I do my day trades. And you could have taken more size, you could have taken less. It depends how much you're risking. But again, nice, beautiful sell-off here in the meta. And you're going to learn how to find this, how to know to do this, how to get the direction right in the class. So, if this is something for you, you got to think about, do you have the time to trade between 9:30 and 10 a.m. Eastern time? Does it fit your work schedule, your life schedule? Do you need daily trade ideas? That's one of the reasons people love my trading room because I'm calling trades in the room. Usually, one good pick a day and that's all you need. Do you like to make money quickly? Sometimes we're in and out very, very fast. Today was one of those days. We're in and out in like 5 minutes. was crazy and I love being able to make a couple thousand dollars in a few minutes. So, that you will learn. Uh, also, if you're someone that's trading and you don't even have a strategy at all, that's problematic because you need a good strategy and you need a consistent trading strategy and you have a passion or interest to learn the market and trade. Hopefully, you do. That's how you found me in the first place. And do you want to work from home? I tell you, it's very convenient, especially in New York. Um, I had to go down for jury duty. We had to go all the way downtown for jury duty and deal with traffic and come all the way back. And I thought, "Oh my gosh, I'm so lucky to work from home." You know, a lot of people are having to go back to work. It's not like 6 years ago, 5 years ago. People are expected to go into the office. So, if you just learn to trade, take my class, start trading, you can do this as your job. You're going to love working from home all the time and never having to deal with traffic or commute. Do you want a new career that offers unlimited income potential, which the market does, but you have to learn what to do. It's not like a normal job where you just start doing it. You actually have to understand what to do. You actually have to learn it. So, I have a 26-point checklist that helps me pick which stock I want to do each day. That is what you will learn from me. You will learn the checklist. You will learn the entries. You will learn the exits. It measures gaps by rating them with a daily chart to find stocks to trade that have number one a high probability of directional bias for the entire day, a big move on the day, early confirmation of the bias and the move between 9:30 and 10 and precise entries with followthrough and a good risk-to-reward target potential. And again, hopefully um you know, you'll be able to get maybe more. You know, that meta was a beautiful trade. Some of the trades are two 300%. We've had some options this year have been ridiculous percentages, but I'm telling you, my normal goal is to just make one to one. Now, for those of you who have been wanting to trade on margin, let me tell you that this year they changed the rules. You can trade on margin with less than 25,000. So, you can get 4 to1 in a retail broker. That's good news. I'm going to give you an example though position so people just understand here because if you had a,000 shares, you wanted to short of a stock that was worth $100 a share. You would need what? $100,000 in buying power. Again, that doesn't mean $100,000 cash. It means buying power because the broker will give you margin 4 to1. So, you would need $25,000 cash in this example to take the trade. Follow me? So, what if you take a,000 shares? You have 25,000 in the account cash. If the trade loses, do you lose all 25,000? No. Do you lose 100,000 if it costs 100,000 and the trade loses? No. You only lose the difference between the entry and the stop. So here's an example. If you entered at $100, you put the stop at $150 a,000 shares, what's your risk? Your risk would be $500. That's all you would lose. Not the $100,000 cost of the position. You follow me? Or the 25,000 cash you needed to take it, you would lose only $500. Does this make sense? Again, you have to understand margin if you're going to trade on margin. So if the train loses, what do you lose? Again, you would lose in this example $500 and if it wins, it wins. But that's you need the buying power to take it or you can buy a put. But I like trading on margin and I do even though I'm doing options, too. I'm holding options for longer. I like doing day trades for fast trades. And the benefit of trading on margin is you can take bigger position sizes. Now, getting back to options. I do options as well. You will get the options newsletter subscription and the trading room free through the end of 2027 with this big Labor Day special if you signed up for the Golden Gap course bundle. So whether you want to do options or whether you want to do day trades, you're going to get both subscriptions. So you can do both if you want to or one or the other. We did the Apple puts on the 10th here. Stock close here, gap down D. This fell again, fell all the way down. Beautiful trade. made money 100% return investment in and out only cost a dollar again people like doing options because they're cheaper risk 9600 made 9600 if you did a smaller risk you could have risked a th000 made a thousand this is a good solid option you would have taken the trade let it fallen down again a put as a short and Apple fell but again you're going to learn in the class to see that Apple is going to fall to take it and how do I do it I have a 26-point checklist that helps me pick which stock I want to do each day in what direction and I focus on shorts mainly which the classes mostly focus on shorting. I find that shorting really gives me a very specific niche. Uh and I mean just again a lot of traders don't know how to short. They're not good at shorting. They don't know what to do when the market or a stock falls but I do and I've been able to capitalize on this quite a lot. Quite a lot in my almost 20 year trading career. But even this year, even with the market in an uptrend, I'm still shorting again. We did DKS today. You can look at that. meta was not the apple I just showed you, but you'll learn the 26 points. So, you can do it yourself and you'll learn that in the Golden Gap course. So, the dates are September 26th and 27th, 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Eastern time. Class of the class is $69.99. Classes online to get me anywhere in the world and take it. And again, it's very important to learn so you know what to do. But I'm letting people know because it's a month in advance if you want to get in and start trading. The special though is only going on through Labor Day, but this still gives you time to plan and sign up and join and get in and start trading. So, the special is for the bundle. The bundle is $89.99. This is a standard uh offer, the bundle tuition, which is three classes. It includes the Golden Gap course, the trends, and the gap options course. Now, it is not standard that I have these free offerings. This is the Labor Day special. If you sign up for the bundle, you get the Golden Gap course bundle. Sign up by 97. Register again. If you register tomorrow, you can start trading. If you register for the bundle, you will get the training for free through the end of next year. Options newsletter and the market report free through the end of next year and two 1-hour mentoring sessions with me. So, this is very helpful for people want to learn and want to trade and need help after the class or even if you need help before the class. Classes are online. You could be anywhere in the world and take it. People are already signed up for this class date. So do not wait because if you want to get in, I have a limited seats available in the class. Otherwise, I'd be talking till midnight. And again, I don't want to do that. So, um, if you want to get in, you can start trading now. It's a great special. You'll be set until January 2028, which sounds insane, but honestly, look how time is flying, flying by. So, think about it. If you have questions, you can always reach out to me.
