Depending on market conditions, we may be able to apply more Income Methods and enter more trades. For example, in the middle of June, there were two trades made; one Income Method applied to a previous position and one new RPM was opened. The week before that there were about 5 trades made, some that were Income Methods on existing positions and two new RPM’s were opened.
There are some months when we may not make a new trade or apply any Income Methods as the market conditions are not conducive to position entry or adjustment.
When a new RPM is opened, the at risk percentage will typically remain constant for a few days after we open a position, unless there is a sudden change in the stock price. Many of our Fission subscribers have told us they got into an RPM with a lower maximum risk than Kurt gets – even if they entered the position a day or two after we sent out the trade details.
Depending on the type of Income Method, timing may be more important. For the money nets, such as Income Method #5 and #6, the premium you seek to receive for the spread may adjust fairly quickly…but, you can always place a limit order with your broker in case the credit between the position is achievable at a later date.
