Back from much needed no trading 2 week vacation in Italy and France with relatives and seems like there were some crazy movers in that time span. Very lucky timing but easing back at it today with some easier regular session backside trades.
$CMBM $PPBT $ERNA $VSEE
Slow market open today but patience and selectivity rewarded today. Sector theme related to Trump posts around seed oils combined with some chat room pumps gave some opportunities today $COOT $SEED $SDOT. $OMER high IO grindy action, but the geometry was there. $AQMS no surprise on offering news there but volume was poor. $GNPX don't normally like sub dollar stocks but this nice. Still think it will be in play but will be riding some down just in case.
$CSAI $EVAX $IBG $TBH $PFAI
Another good avoid on $QNRX. Signs were there once again. Had some decent opportunities today during regular session finally. Not looking to get caught in anything on a Friday, so probably walking soon while managing $SGBX. October off to a good start with some action. HAGW.
$STAI $ONMD $PWM $SLE $GWH
Market's heating up after $SPRB $SOPA $ONMD yesterday. Some pretty nice opportunities to hit today in comparison to last week. Noticed locate prices were slightly better today possibly because some short selling careers ended yesterday. Hope that continues.
$ZNB $GLTO $CISS $BJDX $COCH $ULY $BQ $PRHI
Great avoid $SPRB. Chat room pump joining forces with Shkreli with no apparent supply, bio stock, nano float with a catalyst, ETB, Monday FOMO at a fat soaker at 31.3. Some of the signs were there. Careers are ending today, hope some of you guys can make it out OK.
Chinese garbage $AGMH heavily rigged flows since after hours yesterday into today. Not following normal technical patterns or perhaps a new variation developing today. Crowded due to the lack of other plays today. Not the type of stock to lose focus on.
Not many opportunities or quality today so very little probabilities of making back any losses. Stay safe out there.
$BREA $CDLX $QMCO $ZOOZ $ZEO
Finally got some opportunities in the regular session today. $BREA Chinese garbage up on crypto related news, theme seems no different than the past outlier crypto runners -- higher risk play but capitalized on this one decently. $LASE solid opportunity midday. $APVO great sell the news opportunity here as well from the hype PR. There's usually at least one stock a day that's a long/short killer. If you see the nuances, they're not impossible to avoid.
$AERT $CDLX $ATCH $PBM
Regular session opportunities have gone way down significantly compared to premarket this week. Opportunities do seem to be slower on FOMC days in micros.
Best opportunity today was $SPRC. Some Chinese stocks creeping back on scans with notable $CURX liquidation. Nice window on this one to get in. Wrapping up the day with $ATCH
$NFE $SQFT $LITM $HIND $CDT $GV $OPEN $OPAD
Relatively slower Friday, wonder if it's possibly driven by recent political events. Personally, headspace was slightly disrupted by the news so sized down today combined with general Fridays. Did see some good opportunities although missed some action in premarket. Nice $OPEN red day trade. $WLDS will have a setup on this later ideally.
$AIRE $GCTK $HCWB $VSTD $MJID $UOKA $AGAE $COCP
Sleeping in during premarket during this Chinese garbage craze cycle has been an edge as these Chinese garbage firms all flailing to hyper pump and dump before NASDAQ new requirements go live.
Blatant market manipulation is clear and rampant more than ever this week. Personally I won't be sad to see Chinese flow banned from microcaps.
Sizing appropriately, patience, and risk management abilities heavily tested this cycle with available opportunities for the selective if not sensitive to Chinese garbage.
$TOP $HUDI $WLDS $AGMH $AEHL $CUPR $JCSE $MWYN $CGTL $GLE $RBNE $SMX $OCTO
$OCTO new intraday record at 3837% above $TNON $HKD $NXTT and a few other swan types? The very essence of a black swan is that you cannot predict it. Assume the next swan will be even more egregious. Crypto named themes still proving itself to constantly rotate demand.
Big short opportunity on this one later.
$HOUR $XAIR
NASDAQ REVAMPS LISTING RULES FOR SMALL IPOS & CHINESE FIRMS
Proactive review of emerging patterns? Been going on for yrs & @NasdaqExchange 100% knew. Obvious to anyone w a pulse. Shameful they didnβt act sooner.
Crazy level of scams / laundering that openly occurred in these.
Another garbage Chinese volume kind of day. No interest as locate prices are getting more expensive combined with the first day of the month. $HWH up 440% on no news. Mr. Ambrose Chan loving the donations today like before on $AEI and $IBO.
FOMO is always massive after a long weekend, so good to stick to patience and selectivity. Letting $LAWR work and I'm out.
