 At one point, I was in a stock called XXII, right? I bought this damn thing at 98 cents. I still have a little bit overnight, but just to give you an idea of, yeah, again, nobody hacked my account, right? This is legitimately where the money flow is going, right? XXII, I bought at 98 cents. I sold some, I'm keeping some overnight, blah, blah, blah. Welcome to Access a Trader, the number one community for those who are committed to taking control of their trading in order to achieve success, profitability, and longevity. Thank you for joining us. Here's Dan Shapiro to help you find your edge, master your process, and own your future. Hey guys, good evening everybody. Welcome to another edition of the Access a Trader dot com nightly update show. Hope everybody is doing okay. So what the heck is wrong with technology, right? Now, before somebody turns around and say, God, Dan, there's nothing wrong with technology. Look at the cues. Look at the beautiful moves and the cues, and you're absolutely right. What I'm referring to is more of the names that, again, the good field names, right? The cold stocks, the stocks that everybody pays close attention on earning season that everybody puts into a really high, a great, kind of a high regard. And those are the plays that we're trying to figure out, why aren't they rallying? Matter of fact, let's start out from yesterday. So Tesla gets added to the S&P 500. And obviously when I recorded last night's video, this was before Tesla got added. And you would expect, you know, you would expect Tesla because of such a big short interest in the stocks, such hatred on one side of the area. The fact that, again, it just couldn't rally for a couple of weeks. You'd figure everybody would have got caught and this thing would have absolutely exploded. So you saw this really, really big aggressive move on the announcement, never got close to the after hours highs yesterday and kind of drifted for the rest of the day. Then Amazon, right? Amazon this morning comes out and says, well, we're getting into the online pharmacy business. This is great, right? Amazon rallies, you know, 80, 85 points pre-market and then basically sells off for the rest of the day. If you look at the market today as a whole, again, nothing really spits out at you. The NASDAQ, NASDAQ composite, you know, down what? 35 points, nothing, absolutely nothing. So nothing is gonna tell you how crappy Betaland is right now. But if you start looking deeper and start looking at all the charts, you kind of see what I'm talking about. Apple, again, looks like it's about to go every single day and just doesn't, right? Just doesn't, the video, right? Looks so great. Every single day, intraday looks so great. Semiconductor is still very, very good. It just gets right to the point that it's about to go and then nothing. You look at Facebook and again, granted Facebook today testified on Capitol Hill, Mark Zuckerberg, so forth and so on. But again, it's so close to breaking this area here and nothing. AMD broke out today for like 30 seconds, right? 30 seconds. And again, there's one of our pivots today from like 84, only goes up 80 cents, completely turns around. You could go on and on and on. Look at Microsoft, right? Look at Microsoft, just cannot rally. Alibaba, again, what was the last time this damn thing went green in the day? Again, very, very weak sentiments. Netflix, same thing. So you look at the market as a whole and you turn around and say, wow, this market looks really, really great. And then when you start to break down, what is Intel in the market? You start seeing who exactly is controlled the market. Like Boeing, for example, we had a pivot today, really, really strong pivot on Boeing. Again, this is what's taking the market higher. And again, when people talk about the market, majority of the people, because of water cooler talk, right? Majority of people are talking about the Dow Jones industrial average. Dow Jones has 30 stocks, okay? 30 stocks. And that's it. But unfortunately, most people when they start talking about the market, they talk about the Dow Jones industrial average. And what we're looking at here is kind of a buyer strike on beta. It's almost to the point that people are sitting there and saying, well, you go into the pool first, let us know if there's water, right? And if there is water, okay, we'll go in after you. And for example, today, I traded Roku. And Roku was a good trade. There was nothing wrong with Roku. Again, we talked about Roku last night in the video. It took out this 237 level. It traded really nicely all the way up into the 242s. So there was nothing wrong. But again, why did the stock have to give up $5 off the highs? Again, there's no rhyme or reason why a lot of these names are getting juice. They're getting through this channels like an AMD today, like a Roku today. And you look two hours later, the love is gone. Like literally the love is gone. And then next thing you know, they're kind of drifting like everything else. So it's something very, very odd. Now, again, before you turn around and say, are these stocks short? They're not shorts. Again, you can't short stocks because they're weak. You can't short stocks because you think they're going lower. And because again, the prime index, the NASDAQ 100, again, it's just grinding higher. And the higher we continuously build over the five-day moving average, it's going to frustrate a lot more traders because people don't understand why these stocks are not participating. I'm one of them, believe me, I'm one of them. I'm searching every single day, which is the beta name that's going to bust out? Which isn't going to be the one to go? And I'm identifying them pretty well. Like today Roku was good, but Roku could have been great, right? Especially with this type of environment that people are literally chasing everything inside. EV names, again, going nuts. Again, NIO came out with earnings tonight. They look like pretty decent numbers. But again, the point is that the stock had such a big run. It's the fact that it's only down a dollar after this massive run. It's kind of bullish, right? Wouldn't you agree? So the EV stocks continue to be very, very well. Bitcoin names went absolutely nuts today. Bitcoin is straight up. Look at Riot, right? Look at Riot, at one point today, we started seeing the $5 calls, the $6 calls, the $8 calls, just going absolutely nuts. The stock like Mara, right? Same thing. You start seeing the $4 calls, the $5 calls, big breakout here on Mara as well. So the speculation money is working, but the speculation money is working on other plays, like names again, majority of the time, I wouldn't even be trading. Put it this way, just to give you an example of what I was into, right? At one point, I was in a stock called XXII, right? I bought this damn thing at 98 cents. I still have a little bit overnight, but just to give you an idea of, yeah, again, nobody hacked my account, right? This is legitimately where the money flow is going, right? XXII, I bought it at 98 cents. I sold some, I'm keeping some overnight, blah, blah, blah. If you look at names like a Mara, like Riot, these are names I would never look at 99% of the time, but they're so good and that's where the people, the money flow are chasing. So again, it's one of those scenarios, you could just sit there and moan and complain about, you're in my stocks not being spotlighted. Yeah, damn right they're not. Again, you gotta figure out an alternative way. Now again, is this gonna be something I'm gonna be doing for the rest of my career? Absolutely not, but again, while my names are pretty much out of favor, okay? They're sitting in channels trying to figure out which way they wanna break down first, okay? Our job is to kinda look elsewhere. Again, you're not gonna sit there and start putting massive size on the names you don't trade, especially names that are represented by retail, but again, you are going to participate and that's the most important part. I think for the bears to really stick out in the queues, and again, this is where I mean by, this is not a market to sell if you're looking for beta weakness. This is not, until we start losing the five and 10 day moving average, there's no reason to click that sell button. But again, it's really, really puzzling why these things are not participating with the rest of the queues, especially on the semiconductors. And again, this is kind of where, what I wanna show you guys. So these were the pivots today, right? So these are the pivots today, AMD. Again, I said to myself, maybe this is the day, right? Maybe everything wakes up today. I'm not gonna assume, but maybe everything wakes up and if everything does, we're gonna have a really, really good session. So here's AMD 84 needs to build. Again, here was my point, right? Here's AMD, right? Here was AMD, it broke out above 84, went to like 8480. Again, why did it fail? You don't know what I'm saying, right? I have no idea. Again, that's a great, great question. Why did it fail? Again, million dollar question. Roku, Roku was great, right? There was nothing, I think a lot of us trade at Roku had a really good trade. I'm not complaining, right? 237 needs to build, right? So here was the macro break on Roku, right? 237 we talked about in a lot of the video last night. Macro break on Roku, went to 242. Again, God bless, nothing wrong. I am not complaining, believe me. I just wanna know why, again, came $5 off his highs. Again, million dollar question. Why, why went pre-market? You couldn't catch why, why. At least I didn't. 104, 50, 105 needs to build. Here was why, why, I missed this whole, I missed this whole move. Here was the 105, 50, it actually went to 109. I missed this whole move here. SBE is a complete monster, an absolute monster. 1875, 19 needs to build. This thing just absolutely went crazy. We highlighted this yesterday, the 1750, 18, 18 confirmation. It took out, right? It took out this whole area and the stock went all the way up to $21. Congratulations for a lot of you guys who had it overnight, who sold it really, really great stuff. TDOC got nowhere close to the 175 area. RKT went traded exactly to 23, never got, never confirmed. Chui, I still like, never confirmed. Qualcomm, I still like, never confirmed. ZM traded right to the 411 area and then that's it, right? Did absolutely nothing, came right back in. Facebook, again, never got back down. Actually started putting in some shorts. 23, 273, if it builds below and never got to the 273 level again on the Vidia 532 and never got to the 532 level again. So you kind of get an understanding it's how completely detached these stocks really are. Some of them are strong, some of them are very weak. Some of them are very weak and some of them get strong out of left field. So again, something's up. We can't try to figure out or kind of break our heads, but the moral of the story is something eventually will play itself out. So huge move there. Boeing, congratulations for you guys who caught Boeing. 201 needs to build. They're coming for the June 230 calls in size. Here was Boeing, took out the whole 201. Look at the move here, went to 211. Absolutely huge move on Boeing. ZM never got down there and Tesla never got down there. One quick announcement and again, I'm gonna say this pretty much this is reality. Pivots are not for everybody. I don't think they are. I think if you're a brand new trader and you're still building up your account, you know, again, this is pretty advanced stuff, okay? But again, it's very, very powerful when it's handled the proper way. However, for all you guys who are interested, okay? And have been kind of on the fence, trying these Pivots out. Our guys are running a pretty cool offer for 30 days in the webinar. It's a really, really discounted offer. I'm sure that the link will be somewhere in this video. Come check it out. If you've ever been on the fence and you're trying to figure out if Pivots are for you, again, this is a great way to spend 30 days in the webinar. See everything play out. Please watch the workshops before, because again, I could feed you Pivots till you're blue in the face. But if you don't understand why these things are moving and you don't understand the moving parts, again, like I said, I've been saying for years, you're just cheating yourself. So please before you come into the webinar, please watch the workshops. It will only help you. So going into tomorrow, again, will beta finally pick a direction and start rallying one way or another to be determined? Other than that, again, we have a game plan. We wait for everything to confirm. And once everything confirms, usually good things are going to happen. But again, you can't force the issue. It has to come across very organically. So guys, have a great night, everybody. Wish everybody nothing but the best. And with God's help, I'll see you all tomorrow. Take care.
