SNOW’s Surge Validates War Room’s Perfect Options Setup
BOOM!
SNOW just delivered one of the most explosive moves we’ve seen all week, surging 32% after crushing earnings.
But let me tell you why this trade was a perfect setup from the start, and why our War Room members crushed it.
First, the headline numbers that sent this stock soaring:
- Revenue growth of 28.3% year-over-year
- RPO (Remaining Performance Obligations) up 55%
- Net retention rate of 127%
- And the cherry on top: a game-changing partnership with Anthropic for AI integration
But here’s what really matters – we were positioned perfectly before any of this happened.
Back in June, with SNOW trading in the $120-130 range, I saw something special brewing.
While everyone was focused on the negative headlines and data breach concerns, I spotted heavy insider buying. The smart money was loading up while others were running scared.
Check out what our War Room members are saying:
- LarryD: “In at 12.45 with an exit today of 26.85 – best trade of the year!”
- Bill S2: “Sold for net credit of $26.73, thanks Karim!”
- SpacemanSnoopy: “In @ 12.40, out @ 20.10 for a 62% winner!”
- TradingQueen: “Doubled my position at $130, now up 115% on the spread!”
- BigMike: “First time holding through earnings, what a homerun!”
- Options_Master: “The January 2026 timing was perfect, gave us room to breathe”
Instead of buying shares at $120+, we used our signature LEAPS spread strategy – the January 2026 $125/$160 calls for just $12.50.
That’s risking just 12% of the stock price for massive upside potential.
When Berkshire dumped their position in August, some got scared. But we had time on our side with that 2026 expiration.
And now look – SNOW isn’t just another tech company. They’re a serious player in cloud computing, and this Anthropic partnership for their Cortex AI platform is a game-changer.
You know what’s wild?
Some analysts are now targeting $215, but we were positioned way before they caught on.
That’s the War Room advantage – we see opportunities before the crowd, and more importantly, we know how to structure trades to maximize our odds of success.
YOUR ACTION PLAN
When big institutional players like Berkshire make moves, most traders get caught up in the headlines.
Smart traders focus on structure and signals that matter – like insider buying and fundamental strength.
Think about it: Our SNOW trade had multiple ways to win and limited downside:
- Strong insider buying provided conviction
- NVDA partnership and AI developments offered potential catalysts
- Cloud computing secular growth trend supported the thesis
- The January 2026 LEAPS spread gave us 18+ months of time value
- Our max risk was clearly defined at $12.50 per spread
- Even if we were early, time decay wasn’t working against us
- Earnings could have gone either way – we were prepared for both
But here’s what really separated this trade from just another win: risk management. By using spreads instead of outright calls, we dramatically reduced our cost basis and defined our risk.
We risked just 12% of the stock price for triple-digit upside potential. That’s the kind of asymmetric risk-reward setup we love in the War Room.
This wasn’t just good trading – it was a sophisticated options strategy that turned market fear into massive profits.
Looking ahead, you can apply these same principles to any beaten-down quality stock:
- Look for insider buying when institutions are selling
- Use LEAPS spreads to reduce cost and define risk
- Give yourself enough time for your thesis to play out
- Scale your position size appropriately
- Have clear profit targets before you enter
- Structure trades with multiple paths to profitability
The key is structure, not speculation.
Your success template is straightforward: Spot quality companies when they’re unloved, watch what insiders are doing, and structure your trades to maximize return potential while minimizing risk, and always – always – give yourself enough time to be right.
Our members just banked massive gains on SNOW – and we’re already positioning for the next big opportunity.
