It’s Thanksgiving week.
The house smells like stuffing and coffee. Family’s in town. Your uncle’s talking about an AI bubble in the market. The kids are glued to their screens.
And while everyone’s swiping cards, booking flights, and blowing cash on Amazon deals … One quiet corner of the market is setting up the same trade that my students and I target week after week.
Don’t fall for the holiday money trap. Instead, use the volatility to make gains
For example, last weekend, I pulled 9% from OSRH after it fit this exact pattern.
- It’s one trade.
- At the same time.
- Every week.
That’s why I call it the perfect side-hustle setup.
Even if you’re busy, even if you’ve got family over, you can plan it in advance and execute with peace of mind.
Look at another one of my weekend trades from mid-October below:
This Friday, my weekend pattern will reveal itself again. Most people will miss it because they’re distracted.
But all this week you’ve got a perfect opportunity to prepare for Friday’s price action.
And due to the short trading week, because of Thanksgiving, this coming Monday gap up could be even bigger than normal …
The OSRH Trade: Proof The Pattern Still Works
Last weekend’s play on OSRH was a perfect example of how predictable this setup has become.
Week after week we see this price action in the market.
And the stock had all the ingredients that I look for heading into a Friday close:
- Low float.
- Fresh catalyst.
- Morning spike.
- Consolidation into the close.
When a stock holds strength into the weekend, especially in this market of short squeezes and low-float movers, it sets up the potential for a big Monday morning gap-up.
I didn’t chase it during the morning spike. I waited for my setup, the same entry I’ve taught for years: buying late Friday when price action confirms, and locking in gains Monday morning.
- OSRH had 8 million shares in the float.
- The company announced a potential global licensing agreement that morning, November 21.
- It spiked 60% after the news came out.
- The price consolidated around $0.60 into the close.
I bought shares on Friday afternoon and sold them on Monday morning for a 9% profit.
Take a look at the OSRH chart below, every candle represents one trading minute:
No stress and no all-day screen watching.
That’s why I love this pattern. It’s structured. It’s repeatable. And it’s not an emotional drain.
I’d rather take consistent singles like this than swing for home runs that blow up my account.
How to Prepare for This Friday’s Setup
Here’s how you get ready for this week:
- Track the strongest Friday movers. These are your candidates for the weekend pattern. Focus on low-float names with catalysts that hit in the morning.
- Watch for strength into the close. If a stock holds gains in the last hour, it’s a potential setup.
- Don’t chase into after-hours. I buy during the confirmed bounce.
- Lock in gains on Monday morning. This pattern works because we enter and exit with a plan.
My OSRH trade wasn’t random. It was the result of a specific process.
And with Thanksgiving cutting this week short, the odds of a strong Monday gap could be even higher than usual.
Here’s why:
Most traders will check out early on Friday (if they show up at all) to get a head start on the holiday weekend. On Saturday and Sunday, they find the strong stocks that they missed on Friday and enter orders to buy shares that execute on Monday.
That’s what creates the gap up.
While most traders are distracted by family, food, and travel, I’ll be watching for the next version of OSRH to show its hand on Friday afternoon.
