Atlanta Leaps Investing

Skilled investors are often able to predict the way a certain security or asset will move over a given period of time. Some companies exhibit huge potential for growth and consequently the value of their stock can be expected to rise over time. Other companies are obviously struggling or are in undesirable industries and may be on a long downward trend of declining value. Being able to identify these types of companies and predict which way they will move over time is a valuable trading skill. Those who are adept in this area stand to profit from using a LEAPS investing strategy.

LEAPS (Long term Equity AnticiPation Security) investing is similar to options trading. Both strategies involve purchasing a contract which gives the option to buy or sell a security in the future. However, LEAPS investing deals with much longer terms than options trading. Considered a long term approach, LEAPS investing deals with options contracts whose expiration dates are at least one year away. While options contracts profit from volatility in a company's value in the near-term, a LEAP strategy profits when a company consistently improves or deteriorates over an extended period. Investing in LEAPS is generally considered to be a lower risk strategy, and is therefore more expensive than traditional options contracts. Still, the potential for profits using a LEAPS strategy is real and when used properly can bring in large returns.
