Take Off Tuesday – 5 More Trades That Make 500% in an Up Market

We've been waiting to see our strong bounce lines broken and they were shattered yesteday so, as promised, it's time once again to make a few bullish bets – just in case we do take out those pesky highs.  And, even if we don't – we can still make a few bucks, right?  

We were in a similar position on April 14th, when I wrote "5 Trade Ideas That Can Make 500% in an Up Market" and those trades were:
