Mike Pisani, Trader

Mike started to trade shortly after the financial melt down. In early 2009 Mike started to accumulate positions in banks, insurers and automakers. It wasn’t long before he found my way to leveraged funds and realized the power of leverage. Of course, this eventually led him to the options world, where Mike could leverage up or protect a position easily heading into earnings or an event.

Now, Mike uses the options market in his everyday trading. While being a swing trader at heart, he also day trades most of the time depending on market conditions. Mike follows the options flow while looking for unusual activity to show him where money is flowing. Sometimes it’s a sector, other times it’s repeated call buying in a single name that tells him that’s where he should be focusing on that day or for the near future.
