“Jay, I would like to learn trading from you.” a prospective student approached me.
“Why do you want to learn about the stock market?” I asked.
“I would like to trade the stock market full-time to enjoy the time freedom and flexibility.” he replied.
“That’s great! Are you willing to put in the hours to understand the behavior of the stock market, and the mindset required before…”
Before I could complete my sentence, I got cut off.
This prospect desired a get-rich-quick scheme instead of building a firm foundation before learning about the strategies.
While the stock market can bring riches, it usually results from good old hard work and mindset.
And I think this week’s stock pick will likely explode in price.
But before I share my game plan, let’s review last week’s stock pick- Deckers Outdoor (DECK).
Review Of Last Week’s Pick Of The Week
Deckers Outdoor was last week’s stock pick.
Being a seller of sports apparel and accessories, it belongs to the Consumer Discretionary sector.
A key price level (aka support) was identified at around $198, and that’s where I was waiting for its share price to drop before rising.
This price action played out according to the plan.
As its share price continues to rise, I foresee a potential resistance area that could serve as profit-taking level.
You can find this price level in my Telegram Channel.
Shall we now discover why Royal Caribbean is my stock pick of the week?

Which Instrument Should You Consider Using?
Do you ever wonder about the instrument used to trade explosive stocks?
With 3 main trading instruments available – stocks, contract-for-difference (CFD), and options, you wonder which suits you best.
Since stocks (as an instrument) is easy to understand, I shall focus on CFD and options.
Here are the main similarities and differences:
CFD works like a mirror to stocks. When a stock rises $1, its CFD rises $1.
However, due to its unique pricing mechanism, your options price doesn’t rise by the same amount. In fact, depending on the market conditions, the price of your options contract may even drop!
Your CFD broker will charge you a finance fee for lending you money for your trade. However, no lending is required for options, so there is no finance charge.
Because there’s a finance charge by your CFD broker, CFD is not the ideal instrument for mid to long-term trades. On the other hand, options allow you to implement different strategies across time horizons.
Both CFDs and options are leveraged instruments because they allow you to control a larger market position with a smaller amount of capital.
While CFDs do not have an expiration date, options traders must pay attention to the expiration date of their options contracts.
You must be thinking, “What’s the beauty of trading options?”
Options are like smartphones. You can choose to use a smartphone for its basic or advanced functions.
And options don’t have to be all about Math and dry!
It can be made easy to understand through real-life analogies.
In the same way, you can implement basic and/or highly advanced strategies depending on your level of comfort.
Options allow you to be versatile in adapting to the shifting market conditions and capturing opportunities in the process.
Are you a CFD or options trader?
I’m glad to be fluent in both.
