We’re seeing HUGE stock spikes this week.

And the next move is right around the corner …

Since Monday, September 8, we’ve seen:

  • A small stock spike 5,600%* after announcing a $270 million investment for crypto.
  • Another small stock with crypto news spiked 2,500%*.
  • And a third crypto-affiliated stock  added some AI news to spike 2,500%* as well.

They all followed the same simple trade patterns.

These are account-changing moves.

For reference, Wall Street hopes for 20% gains on the year. Try 20% gains in a matter of minutes. Or 100% gains, 200%, etc. …

And we don’t have to play these setups perfectly to find huge opportunities.

There’s more room for error when the stocks spike +1,000%. 

As traders, our job is simple:

Manage risk with simple patterns.

Today I’ll give you:

  • A watchlist full of the market’s hottest stocks.
  • A simple process to find smart positions within the price action

Every day in this market we see these stock spikes!

Don’t miss the next move …

The Strongest Stocks

The strongest stock spikes in the market share a select few factors.

Every day, I wake up early to check my scan for stocks that best fit the mold of a huge runner.

This week, three of those stocks erupted into full-blown Supernovas.

Supernovas are stocks that spike with such strength that I had to put them in a class of their own.

These moves usually start after a bullish news announcement, but eventually, overzealous short sellers crowd in and squeeze each other out as the stock rips higher.

It’s a short seller’s worst nightmare.

But for long-biased traders, there are huge opportunities to make gains.

Now, these spikes don’t last forever.

Most of the momentum is from short sellers blowing up. So it’s bound to crash eventually when enough shorts stop guessing the top.

For example, the three +1,000% runners from this week are already below their highs.

But I’m still watching them for follow-up bounces.

When a stock spikes +1,000%, a follow-up bounce could be 100% – 300% … There’s a lot of meat on that bone.

Here are the Supernova’s from this week that I’m still watching:

  • Eightco Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: OCTO) spiked 5,600%*.
  • CaliberCos Inc. (NASDAQ: CWD) spiked 2,500%*.
  • QMMM Holdings Limited (NASDAQ: QMMM) spiked 2,500%* as well.

And these aren’t the only stocks on my watchlist …

Besides the insane +1,000% Supernovas, we also see “smaller” +100% moves every week in the market.

For example, Wearable Devices Ltd. (NASDAQ: WLDS) spiked 770%* on Wednesday, September 10 after it announced bullish financial updates and a new patent for its AI wearables.

And all of these volatile runners follow the same patterns.

Follow A Simple Process

It’s easy to see the potential for profits …

$1,000 worth of OCTO on Friday, September 5, reached a maximum value of $57,300 on Monday, September 8.

And that’s just one stock.

We see massive Supernovas like this every month.

Traders who understand my process can bounce from stock to stock, targeting key trade setups within the price action.

I’m not the only one finding these plays right now.

Look at the post below where I congratulate some of my students. I had to redact certain parts because X doesn’t verify trades:

There is a process for success in the stock market.

My newest students use the AI trading bot to guide their trades until they grow self-sufficient.

The AI follows my trade patterns to a T.

Prompt the bot with any of the tickers from my watchlist.

It will give you a trade plan as if you asked me directly.

Cheers

The available research on day trading suggests that most active traders lose money. Fees and overtrading are major contributors to these losses.

A 2000 study called “Trading is Hazardous to Your Wealth: The Common Stock Investment Performance of Individual Investors” evaluated 66,465 U.S. households that held stocks from 1991 to 1996. The households that traded most averaged an 11.4% annual return during a period where the overall market gained 17.9%. These lower returns were attributed to overconfidence.

A 2014 paper (revised 2019) titled “Learning Fast or Slow?” analyzed the complete transaction history of the Taiwan Stock Exchange between 1992 and 2006. It looked at the ongoing performance of day traders in this sample, and found that 97% of day traders can expect to lose money from trading, and more than 90% of all day trading volume can be traced to investors who predictably lose money. Additionally, it tied the behavior of gamblers and drivers who get more speeding tickets to overtrading, and cited studies showing that legalized gambling has an inverse effect on trading volume.

A 2019 research study (revised 2020) called “Day Trading for a Living?” observed 19,646 Brazilian futures contract traders who started day trading from 2013 to 2015, and recorded two years of their trading activity. The study authors found that 97% of traders with more than 300 days actively trading lost money, and only 1.1% earned more than the Brazilian minimum wage ($16 USD per day). They hypothesized that the greater returns shown in previous studies did not differentiate between frequent day traders and those who traded rarely, and that more frequent trading activity decreases the chance of profitability.

These studies show the wide variance of the available data on day trading profitability. One thing that seems clear from the research is that most day traders lose money .
