You just watched me walk through the biggest verdict week of the year. The Fed. Microsoft and Alphabet. Amazon, Intel and Coinbase. Apple on Monday. America votes on Tuesday.

Most traders are going to guess. Or sit it out and watch.

I'm going to do what I've done 194 times in the last two years: place one small, fixed-cost trade where the market's own expected move points, and let the verdict come to me.

You saw the system. You saw every trade, losers included. There's one question left, okay? Are you in this time, or are you watching from the sidelines again?

Join Earnings Flips Tonight's trade goes out before the close. Lifetime pricing ends Tuesday, November 17, before Nvidia’s verdict

Here's what you saw today.

One trade. Two years. Every trade counted, one contract at a time.

+$709Total profit per contract, after every loss
$58 → $156My average winning trade
68 of 74Winners that at least doubled my money
$91The most I've ever risked on one trade

Don's Earnings Flips record, Oct 2024 – Oct 2026: 194 trades, one contract each, before commissions. Past results don't guarantee future results.

And I showed you the part most people hide.

194trades over the last two years. Same trade, every time. 120of them lost. That's right. Most of my trades lose. 9My last 9 trades? All losers. +$709And I'm still up, per contract, after every single one of them.

How? My average losing trade costs about $54. My average winning trade turns $58 into $156. Small losses. Big wins. That's the whole game, and it's the only honest way to play it.

Two-thirds of that profit came in weeks exactly like this one, when the biggest companies in the world get their verdicts.

Guess wrong, you get hurt. Sit out, you miss it.

Last quarter, in a single week, these were the headlines.

Reuters, July 30, 2026: Microsoft sets record with near $450 billion single-day gain in market value+16%Microsoft, in one day
Bloomberg, July 31, 2026: Amazon Shares Soar Most Since 2012 on Cloud Sales Growth+15%Amazon, in one day
The Motley Fool, July 30, 2026: Why Meta Platforms Stock Fell 10% Today−10%Meta, at its low, after beating on revenue

Good news, stock down. Bad news, stock up. Guessing the verdict is a coin flip.

Wall Street calls them earnings. I call it scheduled volatility.

Here's the thing most traders never stop to think about. There are two kinds of volatility in this market.

Unscheduled

  • You don't know when
  • You don't know how far
  • Headlines, tweets, surprises

Scheduled

  • You know when, weeks ahead
  • The market tells you how far
  • Earnings, Fed decisions, elections

If you had to choose, which would you rather trade? Scheduled. Every time.

I know when. The market tells me how far. That's two of the three unknowns answered before I place a trade. The only thing left is where it lands, and that's where my system comes in.

That's why I spend my time on scheduled volatility. It comes around four times a year, like clockwork. And when it shows up, you'd better be ready to take advantage of it.

One small trade. I call it a flip.

It comes down to three things.

Know the date

Every verdict is on the calendar, weeks ahead.

Know how far it can move

The options market prices the move in advance. It's public. Anybody can see it, if they know where to look.

Place 1 small trade

A fixed cost, placed where my system says the stock is likely to land. Done by the next morning.

Now, here's the trap most options traders fall into. They pay up for expensive options right before the verdict. The verdict hits. Volatility drains out. And their options lose value, even when they're right.

The flip is built for that exact moment. When the volatility drains out, the flip can gain.

Don't take my word for it. Look at the trades.

Two years ago, this exact week. Amazon closes at $186. The verdict comes out after the bell. I place one trade. Cost: $48. That's the most I can lose.

Amazon daily price chart around its October 2024 verdict: $186 at the close, $199 the next morning
+348%$48 turned into $215, overnight

Real daily price action from Unusual Whales. One contract. Past results don't guarantee future results.

Last quarter, the same kind of week: 4 for 4.

APPLE

Apr 29 – May 1, 2026. $234 turned into $671 across all four. Real daily price action from Unusual Whales. One contract each.

One dropped. One jumped. Both paid.

META, APRIL 2026
Meta dropped 7% after its April 2026 verdict
Stock dropped 7%+120%
ALPHABET, APRIL 2026
Alphabet jumped 7% after its April 2026 verdict
Stock jumped 7%+202%

Amazon. Apple. Intel. Microsoft. Coinbase. Every one of them gets its verdict again this week.

Picture this.

A phone glowing with a green alert on a desk at golden hour

Thursday afternoon. The alert hits your phone.

You place one trade. It takes about four minutes. Then you close the laptop and go live your life.

A man smiling at his phone with a coffee at sunrise

The next morning, coffee in hand, you check it.

That's it. That's the whole routine. No screens all day. No big account. No guessing the verdict.

If you can place an options trade, you can do this. I'll walk you through it, click by click.

The deadline

Tuesday, November 17

Lifetime pricing ends before Nvidia’s verdict, the last big verdict of the season.

But don’t wait for the deadline. Every day you sit out is a day of verdicts you miss.

Join today, and you’re in for all of this:

  1. TonightAmazon, Intel and Coinbase get their verdicts.
  2. MondayApple.
  3. TuesdayAmerica votes.
  4. The next three weeksDozens more verdicts, several trades a week.
  5. November 17Nvidia, the last big verdict of the season.

Wait until the 17th, and you’ve missed nearly all of it. Get in now, and get every trade that’s left this season.

So, which trader are you?

A stressed trader surrounded by red screens and alerts

On the sidelines

  • Skips scheduled volatility
  • Trades only the surprises
  • Watches every verdict season go by
A calm trader with a coffee in front of a calendar with dates circled in gold

Positioned

  • Knows when, weeks ahead
  • Lets the market say how far
  • In position every verdict season

You can keep trading only the surprises. Plenty of people do. But the biggest moves of the year are on the calendar. Why would you skip them?

Your first 24 hours.

Here's exactly what happens when you join.

  1. The moment you joinThe Masterclass, the first-trade walkthrough and the Mega-Bundle unlock. Your SuperFly trial starts. You can watch the Masterclass tonight.
  2. Before the closeTonight's flip lands by text and email. The exact trade, the cost, ready to place.
  3. The next morningCoffee in hand, you check it. Landed? Take the money. Missed? You're out what you paid, and not a penny more.
  4. Monday and TuesdayApple's verdict. Then America votes. You're in position for both.

The questions I know you're asking.

How many trades will I get?

Over the last two years, about 25 a season, close to 100 a year. Some seasons more, some fewer.

Do I need a big account?

No. A typical flip costs about $55. The most I've ever paid for one is $91. You know your cost before you click.

I've never traded options. Can I do this?

Yes. The Masterclass and the first-trade walkthrough take you through it, click by click. If you can place an options trade, you can do this.

How do I get the trades?

By text and email, before the close.

Most of your trades lose. How does that work?

Look, I showed you all 194. 120 lost. My average loser costs about $54. My average winner turns $58 into $156, and 68 of my 74 winners at least doubled. Small losses, big wins. That's how I'm up $709 per contract after every single loss. It's a numbers game, and you have to play enough hands for the math to show up.

What if a trade loses?

You lose what you paid, and not a penny more. That's the whole point of a fixed-cost trade.

Can I do this in an IRA?

Yes. You can place these trades in an IRA or retirement account, as long as your broker allows options spreads in it.

Annual or lifetime?

If you're going to trade scheduled volatility for more than three years, lifetime is the no-brainer. It costs less than three years of annual, and you never pay again.

How long is lifetime pricing available?

Lifetime pricing ends Tuesday, November 17, before Nvidia’s verdict, the last big verdict of the season. But don’t wait for it: every day you sit out is a day of verdicts you miss. This is the first time I've ever offered it.

What if it's not for me?

You have 30 days for a full refund, no matter what. And if you take 10 trades in your first 90 days and send us your trade log, you're covered for the full 90 days.

Ready to join me?

Scroll down to enroll. It takes about 90 seconds.
