The Hottest Stocks Right Now Thumbnail

I sent out a watchlist on Monday morning, April 14. It was full of the strongest stocks from the end of last week.

Take a look.

And on Monday morning, I pulled $830 from USA Rare Earth Inc. (NASDAQ: USAR).

I took 7% of the larger move (55%) with a classic breakout pattern. Look at my trade notes below:

That’s what it’s all about! Calculated profits on big stock spikes.

USAR wasn’t the only stock to spike on Monday …

  • From our watchlist, Janover Inc. (NASDAQ: JNVR) continued its massive squeeze that started on April 7.
  • Webull Corporation (NASDAQ: BULL) spiked 490%*!

There are a lot of opportunities to make gains in this market.

Even during the Trump tariff scare!

The Hottest Stock Spikes

I had five stocks on my watchlist on Monday morning, April 14.

But I didn’t trade any of them …

The hottest stocks right now are intraday runners that start to spike in the morning.

We’ll eventually find another multi-day runner like JNVR. But with all of the unpredictability right now, it might not be worth the risk for an inexperienced trader.

Plus, the share price grows more expensive with each spike upward.

The entire spike on JNVR is pictured below. It already ran 1,600%* in April.

Every candle represents five trading minutes:

Instead of risking shares on a multi-day move, we can look for new spikes that start in the morning with the help of a StocksToTrade scanner.

Every day, the scanner looks for the hottest low-priced stocks that are capable of pushing higher intraday.

Here’s a screenshot of the scanner from yesterday, April 14:

Webull Corporation (NASDAQ: BULL) exploded higher intraday 😆

Look at the BULL chart below. This is a 490%* spike. Every candle represents one trading minute:

I didn’t trade the spike on BULL, I was busy opening a school in Columbia with one of my millionaire students …

But a lot of traders found opportunities on BULL using my exact trade patterns. And it always makes me feel good to know that I’ve helped people learn a tested trading strategy.

There are more details in my post below:

Now’s your chance to learn my trade process!

Starting Thursday, April 24, I plan to realize $100k in trading profits by September.

And for the three days before, I’m holding a virtual trade conference with my millionaire students to help new traders follow the plan of attack …

The conference is from April 21 to April 23. It starts at 12 P.M. Eastern every day. 

Reserve your spot NOW to learn my entire trade process LIVE.

Don’t miss my $100k profit push over the next few months …

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 .
