Vacuum up cash with these special trades? (Ad)

Have you ever heard about a “volatility vacuum?” Most people haven’t. It all revolves around this formula right here. Now, the most important thing is that this equation — when applied to certain tickers at a certain time each month —- can trigger these “volatility vacuums.” And when that happens, anyone has the shot at sucking out payouts of $290, $350, even $1,350 in as little as 24 hours. (With just a $1k starting stake!) Granted, there were smaller wins and those that did not work out but best of all, we can know exactly when these opportunities will hit. I’ve used this info to create a Cash Calendar that lays out the precise dates of these payouts.

And I’m sending it for FREE to anyone who joins me during my FREE training right here.
