Cars are getting more expensive. Xboxes and Playstations are sold out everywhere. Heck, even your toaster might cost more (if it’s one of those fancy smart toasters).
That’s what happens when we run into a chip shortage.
But crises like these create opportunities… and smart traders know where to find these and take advantage.
In fact, my Profit Flow Group and I managed to pull in a 700+% gain on a particular semiconductor stock over 3 months.
That stock would be Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ: AMD), a California-based semiconductor manufacturer. They make all sorts of computer processors and related products.
They had plenty of good news recently:
Among other things.
But back in April 2021, I spotted the opportunity on AMD among the chip shortage news. I saw it coming and let my PFG members know about it.
We used options, of course, to squeeze the maximum potential profits out of the coming price increase.
Now, at first, we saw a bit of a drawdown. The average trader might feel a pit in their stomach at such a large drop IMMEDIATELY after buying in…
But we have time on our side. And we had enough time for Statistical Disruptive Flow to work its magic.
So we waited...
And the stock broke to the upside. It only decreased once more over the rest of the position, but only to around our entry point…
Right before the massive run that helped us close our trade for big gains.
Of course, not everyone has the stomach to hold on that long without taking profits. Completely understandable — and that’s what tranches are for (I explain these more in the video).
Traders who wanted to play it safe could use these tranches to take profits at various points throughout the trade. They sacrifice some profit potential for peace of mind knowing they realized their gains.
Meanwhile, other traders with extra risk appetite could hold their entire position to the end and take home even more.
Everybody won here. Traders that followed the tranches took home 700% gains, nothing to sneeze at. Those who held on to the end earned up to 900ish%.
I shot a video to explain this trade further...
So you can pick up my techniques and learn how to spot these yourself.
