  1. 0:07all right guys
  2. 0:08i promised to do a video about my
  3. 0:12setup and methodology and process
  4. 0:17for a long time now and it's the most
  5. 0:19common question i get asked
  6. 0:22to explain my process and method
  7. 0:26and setup selection and uh
  8. 0:30i promised to do a video for way too
  9. 0:33long
  10. 0:33and uh yeah so
  11. 0:39enough is enough uh
  12. 0:45it's time to actually do it instead of
  13. 0:48promising things so
  14. 0:52i have a few uh basic setups
  15. 0:55that i trade over and over and over
  16. 0:57again
  17. 1:03let's start with the parabolic short
  18. 1:07what is the parabolic short let's let's
  19. 1:10take a few examples it's a stock that
  20. 1:13gets
  21. 1:13very extended in a short amount of time
  22. 1:17so there's two components to it you have
  23. 1:18a percentage move
  24. 1:21preferably it's you know two three
  25. 1:23hundred percent
  26. 1:24or maybe even a thousand percent plus
  27. 1:28in a short amount of time like three
  28. 1:30days
  29. 1:31five days uh two weeks or something
  30. 1:34uh it's updated goes up
  31. 1:38a lot in a short amount of time and
  32. 1:41preferably it goes up
  33. 1:42on nothing you know some speculation or
  34. 1:45hype or just a pure pump
  35. 1:48uh let's take ino for example recently
  36. 1:52this thing
  37. 1:53like this is what you're looking for
  38. 1:55something that's just straight up
  39. 1:57straight up with no dips this thing went
  40. 2:00up 300 percent in one two
  41. 2:02three four five sessions on the fifth
  42. 2:04day
  43. 2:06now this is important you have to wait
  44. 2:08you can't short on the first or second
  45. 2:10date generally
  46. 2:11sometimes it's work it works shorting
  47. 2:14stocks on the first or second day but i
  48. 2:16prefer to wait the ones that
  49. 2:18go up for three four even five days
  50. 2:20those are the best ones
  51. 2:22[Music]
  52. 2:24uh because you you want to be in a
  53. 2:26position of strength you don't want to
  54. 2:28start shorting it down here because you
  55. 2:30think it's a piece of pump
  56. 2:32and it's up too much you don't want to
  57. 2:34short it on day one or day two
  58. 2:37okay and this is the trade i actually
  59. 2:40did real time
  60. 2:41in on the stream so those of you been
  61. 2:44following my stream you
  62. 2:45you remember this trade i know several
  63. 2:47of you they traded with me
  64. 2:49the fifth day it's a big euphoric gap
  65. 2:53up and then it just tanks okay
  66. 2:57let's look at the um now i don't have
  67. 3:00the intraday
  68. 3:00five minutes short available right
  69. 3:04now i think nope i don't have the five
  70. 3:07minute
  71. 3:07chart where let's look at the 10 minute
  72. 3:10chart
  73. 3:10uh or maybe 15 minutes short yeah
  74. 3:16let's see here okay so 15 minutes all
  75. 3:20right still i need the five minute
  76. 3:22but pretty much what you saw was it had
  77. 3:26a little bit of push out of the gate
  78. 3:28and then it took out opening range lows
  79. 3:31now this is key
  80. 3:32like i talk a lot about opening range
  81. 3:34highs
  82. 3:35and opening range lows
  83. 3:40and i trade them all the time if i want
  84. 3:42to short
  85. 3:43opening range highs sorry opening range
  86. 3:46lows is usually where i wanna short it
  87. 3:49and the opening range can be the one
  88. 3:52minute chart
  89. 3:53like a one minute candle the first one
  90. 3:55minute candle it can be that five minute
  91. 3:57candle first five minute candle or it
  92. 3:59could be the first
  93. 4:01hourly candle like like this these
  94. 4:04charts here
  95. 4:05i use the one hour short a lot
  96. 4:09uh and it can also be
  97. 4:12like for example on ino the opening
  98. 4:15range lows on the 60 minute chart was
  99. 4:181620 on this day here
  100. 4:22but on the one minute chart it was up
  101. 4:24here in the 18s and also in the five
  102. 4:26minute chart it was also here in the
  103. 4:2718th i really i don't have
  104. 4:29the five minute and one-minute charts
  105. 4:31right now on this platform
  106. 4:33um i should have prepared better for
  107. 4:35this stream it was kind of sporadic
  108. 4:37i didn't really prepare but yeah
  109. 4:41let's look at an uh look at the recent
  110. 4:43example
  111. 4:44um mrna
  112. 4:48this one wasn't an opening range lows
  113. 4:51play it was more of a
  114. 4:53it was still a range break like i also
  115. 4:55talk a lot about
  116. 4:57long uh tight ranges
  117. 5:00so mrna was another candidate it's been
  118. 5:02up
  119. 5:05500 percent it's it's a large cap stock
  120. 5:08500
  121. 5:08in six months for a large cap stock
  122. 5:10that's a big move
  123. 5:12that's a very big move a lot of hype and
  124. 5:14speculation with their
  125. 5:16uh vaccine kovi 19 vaccine etc etc
  126. 5:22uh
  127. 5:24and they had kind of
  128. 5:27decent data on this day here the stock
  129. 5:30was already extended
  130. 5:31they uh
  131. 5:35released some decent data but it was
  132. 5:37only from eight patients which is kind
  133. 5:38of irrelevant
  134. 5:40so this one i was stalking for a good
  135. 5:42risk watch set up
  136. 5:43now it did have i i think i even shorted
  137. 5:46it i don't remember if i did i
  138. 5:48i think i shorted on the opening range
  139. 5:49lows and took a loss on it
  140. 5:52this is like last week i really don't
  141. 5:54remember i'm so bad at remembering
  142. 5:56trades
  143. 5:57but i may have taken a loss on the first
  144. 5:59trip and in late day
  145. 6:02just went in a tight tight range and
  146. 6:04late date started fading and that's
  147. 6:06that's where you got a tight tight range
  148. 6:07on it
  149. 6:08two dollars raised two dollars to make
  150. 6:11potentially 20 25 on a downside that's
  151. 6:14exactly what happened just
  152. 6:16straight down from there so this was
  153. 6:18another extended stock
  154. 6:22uh but it wasn't up like three four days
  155. 6:24in a row it was yeah it had just been
  156. 6:26flagging for a week and then it gapped
  157. 6:29up a date on this uh
  158. 6:31on this news but it was already pretty
  159. 6:34overextended so
  160. 6:35it's kinda similar setup to
  161. 6:38the ino setup i was talking about
  162. 6:42but it wasn't straight up as violently
  163. 6:46as this ino but the key in both of these
  164. 6:48you don't
  165. 6:49randomly short them you wait for them to
  166. 6:52actually
  167. 6:52start going lower you don't stop uh
  168. 6:56you know start randomly picking tops you
  169. 6:58wait for weakness
  170. 7:00so that's why you wait for this opening
  171. 7:02range lows
  172. 7:04or uh mid late day fades
  173. 7:08so it's kind of the same trade but that
  174. 7:11variation
  175. 7:12of of the same trade pretty much and ino
  176. 7:15had a exactly
  177. 7:16similar setup a little bit later in
  178. 7:20april
  179. 7:22also it went up 100
  180. 7:25in just five six sessions and then you
  181. 7:28had this a little bit of a peak day
  182. 7:32you you pretty much count the days you
  183. 7:34know it's up one two
  184. 7:35three four even on this steven even if
  185. 7:39it
  186. 7:39the candle here is red the stock was
  187. 7:42still higher on this day
  188. 7:44the candle here is red because it closed
  189. 7:47lower than it opened but it still closed
  190. 7:49higher than the previous day so it was
  191. 7:51still an update
  192. 7:52so how what one two three four five six
  193. 7:55on the seventh day
  194. 7:58you get this uh little bit of a reversal
  195. 8:02but it actually was a pretty big
  196. 8:04reversal
  197. 8:06where are we
  198. 8:11i can't find it on the five minutes or
  199. 8:12oh okay i have to look at a 10 minute
  200. 8:14chart
  201. 8:16and it's the same thing exactly
  202. 8:19same thing opening range lows was the
  203. 8:23key
  204. 8:24now in the 10 minute shot the opening
  205. 8:25range lows is here 15
  206. 8:2717 or so but i think on the one and
  207. 8:30five-minute
  208. 8:31uh charts it was higher like mid or high
  209. 8:3415s
  210. 8:36so you wait for that opening range lows
  211. 8:40because the stock has been straight up
  212. 8:44then it triggers it tried to bounce and
  213. 8:47i'm gonna
  214. 8:48introduce you another concept the vivap
  215. 8:50this is an
  216. 8:51indicator i use a lot when shorting only
  217. 8:53when i'm shorting stocks pretty much
  218. 8:56or when i play me in a version trade
  219. 8:58sometimes i do use it on the long side
  220. 9:00too but
  221. 9:01only when i like do bounce plays i'm
  222. 9:03gonna go through that later
  223. 9:06so it tests viva can't get above
  224. 9:09it holds below viva midday
  225. 9:13similar to what mrna did it built a uh
  226. 9:16range for several hours and then it
  227. 9:18breaks below that
  228. 9:20and then it just you know fade straight
  229. 9:22down then it went sideways a little bit
  230. 9:24for a few days and then it had another
  231. 9:26leg lower
  232. 9:27uh and i should also mention i'm mostly
  233. 9:30a swing trader i don't
  234. 9:32do trades for day trades when i do a
  235. 9:35trade i do it to hold for several days
  236. 9:38or weeks if i'm short and
  237. 9:41generally for weeks and months if i go
  238. 9:43long
  239. 9:45so let's look at some mean aversion long
  240. 9:48trades
  241. 9:51um i'm gonna see
  242. 9:54one that i remember i had a really good
  243. 9:57trade on
  244. 9:58was on gbtc this is a bitcoin etf
  245. 10:02back in december 2017.
  246. 10:05now you should already already recognize
  247. 10:09this setup here
  248. 10:11you have something that's up hundreds
  249. 10:13and hundreds of percent
  250. 10:15in in a short amount of time you know
  251. 10:18has a leg higher it goes sideways as a
  252. 10:20leg higher goes sideways another leg
  253. 10:22higher then it goes up
  254. 10:24a bunch of days in a row it pretty much
  255. 10:26doubles
  256. 10:27in in a week and then you had this
  257. 10:29blow-off day and
  258. 10:33i don't have the intraday shot for it
  259. 10:34right now but
  260. 10:36it was a similar shot to what i showed
  261. 10:38on mrna and
  262. 10:39i know you get
  263. 10:43vivap fails and then it just starts
  264. 10:45fading and you have this you have a set
  265. 10:46risk reward
  266. 10:48uh but i'm gonna talk about this bounce
  267. 10:50now this is uh
  268. 10:52similar to the short set up the median
  269. 10:54version of parabolic short this is the
  270. 10:56parabolic loan
  271. 10:57the same concept you have a stock that's
  272. 10:59down 40 50
  273. 11:0160 percent in in this uh case it's down
  274. 11:05almost
  275. 11:0570 percent in one two three four
  276. 11:08sessions
  277. 11:09the fourth day gaps down big has a
  278. 11:12washout a little bit of a washout goes a
  279. 11:14little bit lower from the open
  280. 11:17and that's the same thing it starts it
  281. 11:19reclaims v-map
  282. 11:21it holds above viva puts in opening
  283. 11:24range lows
  284. 11:25and that's when you go long when it once
  285. 11:27it starts proving
  286. 11:28itself and it bounced the total move
  287. 11:31higher was
  288. 11:32110 110 in two days
  289. 11:37actually you know what i'm gonna look at
  290. 11:39i'm gonna find the intraday short for
  291. 11:40you
  292. 11:41um let's see here
  293. 11:45uh okay let's see
  294. 11:48gbtc i'm gonna find the introduce short
  295. 11:51i'm gonna
  296. 11:52find the shot for both the short and the
  297. 11:54long this was such a perfect trade you
  298. 11:56want to find these
  299. 11:57stocks with big big ranges that's where
  300. 12:01the big money is
  301. 12:05let's see here so i'm gonna show you
  302. 12:07guys
  303. 12:09okay
  304. 12:1719. so i'm going to show you this is
  305. 12:19evernote i have a
  306. 12:20huge database of shards and stocks that
  307. 12:23i've been building for years and years
  308. 12:25this is how you build an a
  309. 12:26edge so chibi dc was actually a little
  310. 12:29bit shopping now i'm
  311. 12:30gonna show you guys on this this day
  312. 12:33here when it peaked
  313. 12:35and when it started the big decline okay
  314. 12:38so it was a little bit choppy intraday
  315. 12:41it was weak at first it gapped down but
  316. 12:43then it went straight up
  317. 12:45reclaimed vivap i don't have evap on
  318. 12:48this short
  319. 12:49but uh it reclaimed evap
  320. 12:52actually took out the previous day size
  321. 12:55and then midday it peaked
  322. 12:59it started uh it went below viva app
  323. 13:03retested viva app and then it started
  324. 13:05fading
  325. 13:06and that's when you have a set risk
  326. 13:08reward because you know
  327. 13:09a lot of stocks they start fading in mid
  328. 13:11late day especially these momentum
  329. 13:13stocks
  330. 13:14and that's where you have a set risk you
  331. 13:16would you know you don't have to guess
  332. 13:17where the top is gonna be
  333. 13:21and then it faded seventy percent almost
  334. 13:23in four or five days
  335. 13:25and now this day here this is the five
  336. 13:27minute chart okay
  337. 13:29uh so this day here is the day it
  338. 13:32bounced
  339. 13:34this is that day
  340. 13:38so it's it's like you switch this uh
  341. 13:40like
  342. 13:43you flip the short right it's the same
  343. 13:45trade but on the long side
  344. 13:47it's extended to the downside and it
  345. 13:49starts putting in
  346. 13:51it puts in the first green candle like
  347. 13:53this is also something i talked about
  348. 13:55the first green and the first red
  349. 13:57candle like if you have something that's
  350. 13:59going straight up or straight down
  351. 14:02uh you wait for the first like let's say
  352. 14:05in this case
  353. 14:06it's something that gets three that's
  354. 14:08getting really overextended on the
  355. 14:10downside you wait for the first screen
  356. 14:12five minute candle
  357. 14:13okay before you buy then you can use
  358. 14:16that lower that candle
  359. 14:17as a stop so in this case you get the
  360. 14:20first screen candle and this is a trade
  361. 14:21i traded
  362. 14:22i i did trade but i didn't stream at
  363. 14:25this time this is like a year before i
  364. 14:26started streaming
  365. 14:28uh so you add a little bit then it takes
  366. 14:31out the opening range highs that's where
  367. 14:33you add more and go straight up
  368. 14:35unfortunately i sold this thing way
  369. 14:37early i don't think even i hold it
  370. 14:39held it overnight and then the next
  371. 14:41state went up another 20 30 percent
  372. 14:44so these are the mean aversion traits
  373. 14:46the parabolic short
  374. 14:48and the parabolic longs i'm just gonna
  375. 14:50do a quick overview i'm not gonna go
  376. 14:52into details there are many nuances to
  377. 14:54these traits but these are like
  378. 14:57uh you know the most important concepts
  379. 15:01of these trades then another uh
  380. 15:05important setup i use are the breakouts
  381. 15:08and the earnings gapping gap versus
  382. 15:11earnings breakouts i'm going to show you
  383. 15:12some
  384. 15:12examples of
  385. 15:16ones i have traded
  386. 15:19recently uh this delicious t-doc i
  387. 15:22traded this on the stream
  388. 15:25they had good earnings report they beat
  389. 15:28both the eps revenue they got it higher
  390. 15:31and the stock gaps up and goes up on big
  391. 15:34volume
  392. 15:35okay it takes out a long range a
  393. 15:37multi-year range
  394. 15:39i'm going to show you guys the short on
  395. 15:40the
  396. 15:42weekly chart um i'm going to show you
  397. 15:44the weekly chart
  398. 15:45so this is where it broke out on high
  399. 15:48volume
  400. 15:48you have a stock that's been building
  401. 15:51higher lows for over a year
  402. 15:53took out the range this is a growth
  403. 15:55stock they're in the right sector
  404. 15:57right business things are going well
  405. 15:58this is where the stock is up
  406. 16:00straight up since 2016. things are going
  407. 16:02well for them
  408. 16:04and then a gap up on a good earnings
  409. 16:06report this is what started the big move
  410. 16:08unfortunate you know hop went up 160
  411. 16:11percent in a few months
  412. 16:13unfortunately i sold this thing i think
  413. 16:16in the like
  414. 16:17105 or something i don't remember
  415. 16:19exactly i sold it way too early
  416. 16:21it doubled after i sold it pretty much
  417. 16:26another example would be the xcm this is
  418. 16:29another
  419. 16:30one i traded very similar short
  420. 16:34you wait for a long range break it needs
  421. 16:36to gap up on good earnings speed
  422. 16:38analyst estimates uh have good growth
  423. 16:41numbers
  424. 16:42uh it the eps
  425. 16:46grew by 261 percent year over year
  426. 16:50and the revenue grew by 49 this is a
  427. 16:53growth stock the estimates
  428. 16:54for the next year were 156 percent
  429. 16:58or the same year this is 2019 and the
  430. 17:02estimates for the next year which is
  431. 17:042020 was 54
  432. 17:06so they were going to keep growing
  433. 17:12and it went straight up now they don't
  434. 17:14all go straight up obviously i'm gonna
  435. 17:16i'm just showing perfect examples
  436. 17:18obviously to take a lot of losses
  437. 17:20in fact about 60 percent of my trades
  438. 17:23are losses
  439. 17:24um even more i think
  440. 17:29i think even 70 percent i think last
  441. 17:32year my
  442. 17:3370 almost 70 percent my trades were
  443. 17:35losses or breakevens
  444. 17:37and yet i'm wildly profitable and that's
  445. 17:40because you have to have small losers
  446. 17:43big winners
  447. 17:44anyways dxcm this is the weekly short
  448. 17:47similar setup you have a higher lows for
  449. 17:49six months you have a range
  450. 17:51like a year-long range then it gaps up
  451. 17:54on good earnings
  452. 17:56beats analyst estimates guides higher
  453. 17:58etc etc things are going well for this
  454. 18:01company
  455. 18:04and it more than doubles it had a big
  456. 18:07shakeout here during the corona crisis
  457. 18:10where it bounced
  458. 18:11perfectly off the rising 200 day
  459. 18:18um so i'm going to show you some
  460. 18:20examples
  461. 18:21from my own portfolio of these setups
  462. 18:25let's look at mrna like mrna i went over
  463. 18:28i'm still short this thing i'm still
  464. 18:31short from this stay
  465. 18:32here now i've been adding on the 60
  466. 18:34minute ranges for example yesterday
  467. 18:37it gapped down while the market was
  468. 18:40gapping up
  469. 18:41it showed relative weakness this is also
  470. 18:43a concept i talked a lot about
  471. 18:45relative strength and relative weakness
  472. 18:48if you're stalking a short stop for a
  473. 18:50short and it starts showing relative
  474. 18:52weakness that's a good sign and vice
  475. 18:54versa for if you're stocking something
  476. 18:56on the long side
  477. 18:57so an opening range lows here i added to
  478. 19:01it
  479. 19:01yesterday and went straight down and
  480. 19:04it's gapping down today
  481. 19:05while the markets are gapping higher
  482. 19:08spies are up like
  483. 19:10almost one percent overnight oh more
  484. 19:12more
  485. 19:131.3 so mrna
  486. 19:18ibio this is a stock i've been long for
  487. 19:20a while
  488. 19:21um this is also like a range break this
  489. 19:25is like a small tiny piece of stock
  490. 19:27i'm long because it's a theme stock
  491. 19:30uh like kobe 19 is right now the theme
  492. 19:33the kobe 19 vaccines are very hot theme
  493. 19:36right now
  494. 19:39so technically what did i see i saw a
  495. 19:41range break several months this is a
  496. 19:43former momentum stock i had a big move
  497. 19:45back in february
  498. 19:46on corona this is a corona related pump
  499. 19:51and then here had a big volume day
  500. 19:55or not that big but you know above
  501. 19:57average volume so i thought hey
  502. 19:58why not it's a good risk award why can't
  503. 20:00this thing double
  504. 20:01a lot of these things are doubling w uh
  505. 20:05this one
  506. 20:08is a range break from yesterday
  507. 20:12i shorted it this thing is up it was up
  508. 20:16840 percent in like a few months
  509. 20:19so very overextended name this is just a
  510. 20:21variation of the same
  511. 20:22setup you wait for weakness on a very
  512. 20:25strong stock
  513. 20:28and yesterday lost the rising 20 day for
  514. 20:31the first time since this
  515. 20:33whole big move and today it's gapping
  516. 20:36lower even though the
  517. 20:37markets are gapping higher so it's
  518. 20:40showing relative weakness
  519. 20:42i think next stop for this thing would
  520. 20:43be maybe 130
  521. 20:45120 area livongo this is an earnings
  522. 20:49related trade
  523. 20:51it's a recent ipo i bought it a couple
  524. 20:53of months ago
  525. 20:56had a multi-month like six months
  526. 20:58sideways move
  527. 20:59recent ipo they sold it off
  528. 21:02you know it went straight down from the
  529. 21:04ipo it was you know kind of
  530. 21:07expensive stock and the market wasn't
  531. 21:10sure
  532. 21:10if they could sustain the growth etc etc
  533. 21:13but then it
  534. 21:14you know guided higher
  535. 21:17stock gapped up on higher on volume if
  536. 21:19that didn't have big volume but i i did
  537. 21:22a small position because it just looked
  538. 21:23really good
  539. 21:24ipo breakout the ipo breakouts can be
  540. 21:27super powerful and it's
  541. 21:29straight up since and i'm still holding
  542. 21:32about half of my shares
  543. 21:34fastly another one i bought like a
  544. 21:35couple of weeks ago another ipo
  545. 21:38breakout this thing has pretty much gone
  546. 21:40sideways since the ipo
  547. 21:42and then suddenly they had a good report
  548. 21:4538 no no no profits but 38 revenue
  549. 21:48growth good guidance
  550. 21:51etc big big volume by far the biggest
  551. 21:54volume then you
  552. 21:56it traded like in the first five minutes
  553. 21:58you saw the big volume coming in it
  554. 22:00traded
  555. 22:00average daily volume which is about one
  556. 22:02and a half million shares in like the
  557. 22:04first
  558. 22:05i don't know five or so minutes 10
  559. 22:07minutes
  560. 22:08so it was fairly you know pretty it was
  561. 22:11obvious pretty early it was gonna be a
  562. 22:13high volume day
  563. 22:14so i bought it and uh yeah i'm gonna
  564. 22:18show the p
  565. 22:18l on everything later i'm gonna show you
  566. 22:22my portfolio
  567. 22:23at the end of the video on all of these
  568. 22:24stocks i'm in right now these longs and
  569. 22:27shorts
  570. 22:28and vacs another one i've been talking
  571. 22:31about i did short it this day here
  572. 22:33another one of these over extended names
  573. 22:37up fourteen hundred percent in a few
  574. 22:39months and then he had
  575. 22:41the first states just you know getting
  576. 22:43extended first day
  577. 22:44it showed some weakness took out opening
  578. 22:46range lows
  579. 22:48started testing vivap failed at viva app
  580. 22:51and that's where i shorted it this is
  581. 22:52the 60 minute chart i shorted it here at
  582. 22:5456 saturday i remember
  583. 22:56correctly melee and other earnings play
  584. 23:00i'm long
  585. 23:02same concept you know big long range
  586. 23:04break
  587. 23:06year long range break and uh big volume
  588. 23:10big volume on the earnings day earning
  589. 23:13speed
  590. 23:15uh guides higher et cetera et cetera
  591. 23:17arctic is a small
  592. 23:20just a small hype kobe 19 vaccine play
  593. 23:23i bought it here and inside of this flag
  594. 23:26when when it was obvious it was building
  595. 23:28higher lows i think i bought it here
  596. 23:2940 low 45s
  597. 23:34this is another type of setup like high
  598. 23:36tide flags
  599. 23:37pdd also another high tide flag i bought
  600. 23:40here
  601. 23:41it's a china growth stock very good
  602. 23:44earnings numbers
  603. 23:46um i didn't buy it on the earnings
  604. 23:48report but i did buy it when it
  605. 23:52bounced off the rising 20 day after
  606. 23:54coming out of a long range
  607. 23:57and had a clean breakout here and it's
  608. 24:00straight up since
  609. 24:01shag now obviously all of these trades
  610. 24:03are profitable
  611. 24:04because i sell my losers i keep my
  612. 24:07winners
  613. 24:08and it's a concept i talk about a lot
  614. 24:10small winners big
  615. 24:13sorry small losses small losers big
  616. 24:16winners
  617. 24:17okay that's why i i i can be widely
  618. 24:19profitable with
  619. 24:21while being wrong seventy percent for
  620. 24:22the time shake another one another
  621. 24:24earnings breakout
  622. 24:26which sold you know over a long
  623. 24:28year-long pace
  624. 24:31etc it's the same concept sc
  625. 24:34uh same concept here uh had a flag
  626. 24:38uh where did i buy it yeah i did buy it
  627. 24:40here on this day here
  628. 24:42came out held up very well uh during the
  629. 24:45corona
  630. 24:46crisis flagged and it broke out of this
  631. 24:48little flag and it was
  632. 24:50it's it's like one of the fastest
  633. 24:51growing stocks in the market right now
  634. 24:53you want to be
  635. 24:54in the growth stocks the ones that
  636. 24:57have bright futures
  637. 25:02you don't want to be in something that's
  638. 25:03you know as negative earnings or
  639. 25:06or very slow earnings revenue growth you
  640. 25:08want the stocks growing
  641. 25:1030 50 100
  642. 25:13fmcid it's just a pump play
  643. 25:17i'm not even gonna talk about it it's
  644. 25:18just a thin piece of one this is
  645. 25:20another one
  646. 25:22uh it's a kobe 19 related name
  647. 25:26um it's a thin name i bought it on the
  648. 25:29flag break here had good earnings
  649. 25:33they sell some kind of uh respiratory
  650. 25:37devices to hospitals which is
  651. 25:39you know something that's a very hot
  652. 25:40product right now with the corona
  653. 25:43emph i'm short this is an example of an
  654. 25:46overextended trade
  655. 25:48straight up we had one leg up second leg
  656. 25:51up
  657. 25:51third fourth and fifth leg up on the
  658. 25:54third day
  659. 25:55opening range lows that's where i
  660. 25:58shorted it
  661. 25:59or i need short opening range though i
  662. 26:00showed it here midday
  663. 26:02with a 60 minute chart you can clearly
  664. 26:04see
  665. 26:05you have a multi-hour range and then you
  666. 26:08have this breakdown of this range
  667. 26:10so you have a tight tight range here you
  668. 26:13can
  669. 26:14your risk is like a dollar
  670. 26:18and i still i'm still short like half
  671. 26:20size just trailing it pen
  672. 26:23another example one i did on the stream
  673. 26:25yesterday
  674. 26:27i'm gonna show the intraday chart you
  675. 26:29had the opening range lows it failed
  676. 26:31that view app not
  677. 26:32once but twice
  678. 26:37and i i showed it opening range flows
  679. 26:38and i was thinking about adding it when
  680. 26:40it add a
  681. 26:41failed viva another time midday uh but i
  682. 26:44never did
  683. 26:47uh vt iq a perfect example of amino
  684. 26:51version short
  685. 26:52i unfortunately took a 125 000
  686. 26:55loss on it i was a little bit too
  687. 26:56aggressive too early and then i
  688. 26:59didn't add back when it showed some
  689. 27:01weakness and
  690. 27:02yeah it worked out well it went down
  691. 27:04over 30 40
  692. 27:07and then i played the bounce i'm still
  693. 27:09along it i i bought the bounce on this
  694. 27:10day here
  695. 27:12the 60 minute chart took out a little
  696. 27:14bit of a range but it's just a variation
  697. 27:16it wasn't like a super clean setup it's
  698. 27:18a variation of
  699. 27:20the bounce setup uh bldp breakout
  700. 27:25momentum stock it's in the right sector
  701. 27:28fuel cells fuels there's a super height
  702. 27:30right now
  703. 27:32uh and it had a bull flag tie type bull
  704. 27:35flag and it gaps up on big volume
  705. 27:37and that's you know where i bought it i
  706. 27:38bought opening range highs 1040s or
  707. 27:411050s i think
  708. 27:43mark this is a pump stock um
  709. 27:48but it's the same concept you have a
  710. 27:50flag and you buy it fas
  711. 27:52had a breakout yesterday it's a triple
  712. 27:53financial etf
  713. 27:55it's been pretty much flagging off the
  714. 27:58lows
  715. 27:59building a tight tight range over the
  716. 28:01past week and then it
  717. 28:02capped up on high volume and opening
  718. 28:04range size was the entry
  719. 28:06i actually took a loss on it first
  720. 28:08because it
  721. 28:09i bought it here near the open
  722. 28:12and then it faded it actually didn't
  723. 28:14take out the lows of the day but
  724. 28:16i had to stop a little bit higher i
  725. 28:17could stop that and then i re-bought it
  726. 28:19when it took out the opening range highs
  727. 28:22a little bit later and it's straight up
  728. 28:24since the markets are gapping up a lot
  729. 28:27and clh the same thing here
  730. 28:30it's also again it's a variation of the
  731. 28:33same setup
  732. 28:35you have a range break breakout
  733. 28:39i'm not gonna talk about it much it's
  734. 28:41just a c cell the same thing um
  735. 28:44a range break set up on a momentum stock
  736. 28:47like these things are super beaten down
  737. 28:49they have a lot of range the key is to
  738. 28:51trade stocks with
  739. 28:52range i see a lot of people they trade
  740. 28:55stocks they have no volume there's no
  741. 28:57range the middle of a range there's
  742. 28:59nothing going on
  743. 29:00and they're getting super excited about
  744. 29:02their stocks and i'm like
  745. 29:04no just know trade stocks that have
  746. 29:08volume and range
  747. 29:09that's where the money is all right i'm
  748. 29:11gonna show you guys
  749. 29:14my p l and this is why i focus on
  750. 29:17swing trading and update trading because
  751. 29:21the big money is in swing trading this
  752. 29:23is my portfolio screenshot taken about
  753. 29:2515 minutes ago
  754. 29:30since i'm at swedish time the market
  755. 29:31opens in 35 minutes
  756. 29:33nine nine third it's sorry 8 56
  757. 29:37u.s eastern time and the market opens
  758. 29:409 30 eastern time so it's in 34 minutes
  759. 29:44uh you know some of these positions i've
  760. 29:46had for months
  761. 29:48livongo i talked about this one this is
  762. 29:50my oldest position sc is
  763. 29:52my also very old position
  764. 29:55uh and this is how my portfolio looks
  765. 29:58like right now
  766. 30:00i i sold a bunch of stuff pre-market i
  767. 30:03sold some pldp
  768. 30:05this we have a big gap up and i just
  769. 30:07wanna light i'm heavily heavily long
  770. 30:09right now
  771. 30:10i'm short a bunch of stuff but i just
  772. 30:13wanted to you know look into
  773. 30:15this euphoric little open here we're
  774. 30:18having
  775. 30:19uh some nclh so some
  776. 30:22uh covered some mrna because like i
  777. 30:24talked about earlier in the video mrna
  778. 30:26is showing relative weakness
  779. 30:28it's gapping down well the markets are
  780. 30:30gapping up so it's
  781. 30:32locking into weakness i'm always looking
  782. 30:35my lungs into
  783. 30:36strength and my shorts into weakness and
  784. 30:38then i train my stops
  785. 30:40uh and i also sold some fas
  786. 30:43and i'm probably gonna get rid of more
  787. 30:45stuff and the reason why
  788. 30:47everything is green in my portfolio is
  789. 30:49again i
  790. 30:50sell my losers okay you get rid of your
  791. 30:53losers
  792. 30:53you keep your winners and i've been
  793. 30:56building this portfolio over the past
  794. 30:59six weeks or so my oldest position is
  795. 31:01levongo
  796. 31:03like i was all cash at one point during
  797. 31:05the corona crash
  798. 31:07and then in vongo let's see i bought it

  857. 33:25scanning for stocks that are strong
  858. 33:32then i also have watch list with the

  868. 33:55and also scan them intraday like this is
  869. 33:58very big
  870. 33:59among these stocks is where the big
  871. 34:01money is made right now there's a lot of
  872. 34:03software technology stocks in there

  878. 34:18technology and software
  879. 34:20are dominant those are the fastest
  880. 34:22sectors and have the best momentum so
  881. 34:25most of these stocks in those watch
  882. 34:27lists are technology and software
  883. 34:32all right this is uh pretty much
  884. 34:37pretty much it and then i compile a

  886. 34:40every night look through my scans
  887. 34:44and start stalking stuff
  888. 34:49and it's always nice if the stocks you
  889. 34:51want to go long showing
  890. 34:52relative strength and the stocks you
  891. 34:54want to go short are showing relative
  892. 34:56weakness
