Every week in the market, there are opportunities to make gains using my trade process.

For example, my trade on Visionary Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: GV) last week during the 640%* spike.

Look at my notes below, from March 5:

There were so many opportunities to profit from this spike …

My AI-trading bot alerted two trades during the GV push higher. The AI uses my exact trading process to profit.

Look at the alerts overlaid on the charts below. Every candle represents one trading minute.

Here’s GV from March 5 to 6:

There are stock spikes like GV every week!

More Examples

All you have to do everyday is open StocksToTrade and look at the “Top % Gainers” scan that’s built into the system.

But I’ll include more examples in this blog …

The best stock spikes come from companies that announce bullish news.

For example, GV announced financing consent from a $1 billion business cohort to build an ecosystem for new energy vehicles. It also announced an order of 12,000 new energy vehicles for Hong Kong.

That’s what led to the 640%* spike last week.

Here’s another example:

On March 6, Plus Therapeutics Inc. (NASDAQ: PSTV) announced that it was granted an FDA designation for its treatment of lung cancer.

The stock spiked 600%*. And XGPT alerted a trade from the price action.

Look at the alert on the PSTV chart below, every candle represents one trading minute:

Here’s another example:

Dogwood Therapeutics Inc. (NASDAQ: DWTX) started to spike on March 7 after the company was included on a list of stocks set to announce earnings.

The price spiked 190%* in less than three days. And we got two trade alerts from XGPT!

Look at the charts below, every candle represents one trading minute.

Here’s DWTX from March 7 to March 10:

We get these AI-trade alerts at 3:15 P.M. Eastern every day.

  • Sometimes they turn into overnight swing trades.
  • Sometimes the trade happens that afternoon.
  • Sometimes we have to wake up early to buy the next morning.

But without fail, XGPT ensures that we have eyes on the hottest stocks every afternoon.

More AI Trades This Week!

It’s essential that a trader understands how to use this tool.

The AI gives us a potential entry, and two potential exits …

  • One to help us take gains.
  • And one to help us cut losses, if the trade falls apart.

Understand, there’s no such thing as a 100% guarantee in the market.

Yes, we can use AI to build smart positions on the hottest stocks, but traders who ignore the rules will find themselves in trouble quickly!

Learn to use my AI trading tool correctly, and it could be the final piece of the puzzle that leads to your long-term trading success …

There’s a LIVE AI-training session scheduled for today, March 12 at 2 P.M. Eastern:

Learn to trade before the AI-trade alert at 3:15 P.M. Eastern today!

No time during the day today? No problem.

There’s another LIVE training session this evening at 7 P.M. Eastern.

Stop sitting on the sidelines, there are new stock spikes every week.

And XGPT can help us trade them!

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 .
