Straight-Up Profits editorial team here. We wanted to write to you to get you because what you, our readers, and we as editors have seen from D.R. in the last few weeks and months is almost unprecedented.

And we wanted to see how the readers of Straight-Up Profits have benefitted from the amazing calls D.R. has made.

There are pundits and services out there who have struggled to put out profitable trading ideas during the coronavirus outbreak. But starting on January 27th, D.R. said that traders and markets were reacting to initial coronavirus news pullbacks with strong buying and urged you to do the same. In the next two weeks, his premium subscribers grabbed profits of 100% in AMD, 100% in UNH, 104% in MU, 100% in JNJ, and 124% in MSFT.

Then, on February 18, D.R. wrote that the coronavirus data coming out of China was suspect and that we should not only turn cautious, but actually buy puts on companies with high levels of China exposure or buy companies like consumer staples manufacturers who could make gains even if the market had short-term problems. Premium subscribers took profits of 100% on PG, 100% on QCOM, and 158% on QRVO as a result of his recommendations.

While others struggled, we’ve been amazed and pleased to see D.R. and his BetaFlow tools consistently on the right side of coronavirus market swings. We’d like to get you in on that too…

As you know, the markets have been whipping back and forth as the coronavirus outbreak that began in China spreads further and further.

The roughly 1,000-point drop in the Dow on Monday is just one example, and likely not the last one.

Right now, D.R. is laying out the trading strategy that will help you weather this head-spinning volatility. We’ll be hearing more about that from him later this week.

But D.R.’s coverage of this has already been unprecedented, guiding readers to some amazing opportunities.

Unlike all the other traders who have consistently been caught off-guard by recent market moves…

Unsure what’s happening and why…

And most importantly, at a loss about what to do about it…

Just since the start of the new year, D.R. has led his members to 10 different winning trades – like 105%, 124%, even 158% – when the markets were going up AND down.

And there’s more coming. Let’s take a look…

As I’m writing this on Monday morning, the Nasdaq is set to open almost 3% below Friday’s close. The S&P 500 and Dow are looking to take an only slightly smaller hit, with futures down 2.7% and 2.8%, respectively.

And unless you’ve been hiding under a rock, you know that the reason is the latest news about the coronavirus outbreak, caused by the virus now called Covid-19.

All eyes are now on the virus spreading outside of China, with Italy, South Korea, and Iran unexpectedly turning into infection hotspots over the weekend. There are several scenarios and potential reactions that will greatly affect which way the market moves. More on that in a minute.

Last week, I wrote to you specifically about the high probability that financial markets could take a hit in the near term. The Reality Gap between what was being reported about the virus’ containment and the truth that the underlying data was clearly unreliable made me turn from bullish to cautious. And the fact that supply chains, as well as product sales, were starting to be effected even made me suggest you buy puts on companies like QCOM and QRVO.

I hope you took those recommendations and ran with them as my premium subscribers did, pulling in gains of 100% on Friday and 158% this morning on those two companies.

I’m writing a lot about the coronavirus because it is THE narrative that is impacting the markets rights now – everything else is a distant second.

Covid-19 in Iran has officially infected 66 people, and killed 12. That death rate is many times higher than seen even in China, suggesting inadequate healthcare or a cover-up. Indeed, a local legislator from the Iranian city of Qom claims 50 people have died from Covid-19 there alone.

Already, the virus has spread from Iran to Afghanistan, Bahrain, Kuwait, and Iraq.

But it’s the developed economies like Italy and South Korea that are the main focus for traders.

Italy jumped from three confirmed Covid-19 cases on Friday to 150 on Sunday, and as I’m writing this has announced 209 cases and seven deaths.

Meanwhile, South Korea announced that new infections have quadrupled since Friday, bringing the total to 833.

Unlike China and Iran, Italy and South Korea are wealthy countries with freedom of speech and democracy. So as they start dealing with the Covid-19 outbreak, traders will finally be able to get unadulterated data about the virus.

That will let us know what we’re really dealing with.

Going forward, traders will be looking for three things…
