Everyone wants to make money.

And for a lot of people, the stock market is an attractive opportunity.

There are real profits to be made here.

Check out my trade from Friday of last week. I posted it below …

I wasn’t the only one to bank … And there are more opportunities ahead!

We’re currently in the middle of a shortened trading week. Markets were closed on Monday in observance of Martin Luther King Jr. Day.

Pay attention during short trading weeks.

Part of the reason Applied UV, Inc. (NASDAQ: AUVI) spiked 110% on Friday is because traders knew that we were headed into a long weekend and a short trading week.

This hype will continue!

$AUVI could spike higher. But don’t limit yourself to one stock. We’re using the same patterns to trade the hottest runners in the market every day.

There’s still time to profit this week. And the opportunities are so ripe they’re practically falling off the tree!

I’ll explain how to find the next move …

We can use $AUVI as an example.

Everyone had eyes on this stock. And by everyone, I mean everyone in the Challenge chat.

Let’s take a look at some of the messages from Friday …

I had to omit certain aspects of their trades to keep the lawyers off my back. If you want to know the specifics of our setups, you should join the Challenge chat room.

You also could have watched LIVE as Jack Kellogg outlined this trade.

Jack is one of my most successful millionaire students. He’s been trading since 2017 and already has recorded $12.4 million in trading profits.

Now and then he holds live streams for other students.

There’s a screenshot of the replay below. Jack is showing traders an intraday chart RIGHT when the stock takes off.

We all had eyes on this because it was an obvious play.

And it started to spike during premarket hours. We had all day to track this price action.

StocksToTrade Breaking News alerted the ticker at 8:17 A.M. Eastern. More than an hour before the market opened. Take a look …

But maybe you don’t know what a perfect setup looks like.

That’s OK. I can break it down.

Perfect Setup

The stock fits our trading process perfectly …

  • Morning news.
  • Initial spike above 20%.
  • Low float.
  • Share price below $5.
  • Large intraday trading volume.
  • Price consolidation.
  • Short squeeze setup.

And some of you were STILL distracted by lazy blue-chip movers. It blows my mind!

Friday’s Tweet illustrates my point. $AUVI followed this pattern to a T!

If you’re a small account trader, you need to focus on the setups that maximize profit potential.

Stocks like Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ: TSLA) only move a couple of percentage points per day. How am I supposed to pull 10 – 30% profits if the stock only moves 8%?

There’s NO room for error on those stocks. And for minimal gains!

Conversely, I pulled 45% from $AUVI because there was 110% on the table. Make sense?
