 Hey guys, this is Hydro from Xtraits and in this video I'm gonna be going over how we can spot the next big winners in the market using volume clues. So Yeah, first I'm gonna be going over snapchat So let's look at snapchat back in 2020 So notice how it was just consolidating here for almost an entire year and then we finally break out right and now We're just consolidating again, and then we make another breakout here Let me just draw a trend line here So Yeah, consolidating here and then big breakout here You guys noting do you guys know anything significant about the volume here? Look at the volume board on this candle, right? Look at the volume bar Any of the bars before right this volume bar is a skyscraper compared to the other bars when you see a skyscraper volume it is almost always a sign that institutions are loading into this thing hedge funds are rushing into You're trying to beat each other into buying this thing right and this is what forms big volume bars like this one Me buying or any retail buying cannot Cause this sort of volume This volume can only be Caused by big Institutions buying the stock up and that's exactly what happened here for snapchat right so institutions were loading up I was going up for like three days in a row now. It's getting extended here So now you want to wait for some sort of flag or consolidation and that's exactly what snapchat does right? It's turning up turning up and then here it breaks out and that would be a good entry But yeah, the point this video is to Basically the concept of big volume bars a big app up big volume that means that means possibly look to buy the stock There's a lot of strong stocks in the market, but the but the aims that I pay the most attention to Are the ones with the big catalyst that have a big or that had a big catalyst that had big volume And had a big price change, right? So I'm gonna look for big gap ups and with big volume because that is again almost always assigned that Institutions for loading up. So, um, yeah snapchat had a really nice run in 2020 went from all the way from 34 went from 34 to $83 right, so that's almost 138% right there So that's so this is why I look for big volume bars because it can be clues for next the For the next big winner in the market and you don't typically want to buy right on the start of the move You typically won't want it to let it run up and then consolidate a little bit and then buy on the break So this would be the correct entry here So ran up consolidating and then it breaks out here. You can place your stop loss Below like a support level. So around 38.5 entry Around 40 41.5. So yeah snapchat is one good example Another example is Pinterest. So Pinterest again. This was also in 2020 So again before before this big volume bar Pinterest was just consolidating between this range and then it has a big bar This was either from earnings report or catalyst or some sort of catalyst it really doesn't matter all I care about is a big gap up and then a big a Big our skyscraper volume bar So those are the two things that I look for both of those are there and I just want to wait for the stock to consolidate So right here it's consolidating consolidating tightening up and then here's the breakout day, right? and that's where I want to buy and Yeah, from there Pinterest makes a pretty big move here. So it goes all the way from so it starts out Around 34 and then it goes all the way to $90 pretty much and that's like 161% in just a couple months. So again, this is why you want to look for this type of volume and So this works the best in bull markets It does work in bear markets as well But yeah, it's something that you definitely want to focus on for bull markets So there's a lot of strong names in bull markets, right? Almost everything's going up But if you want to get the best return, you want you you need to be in the stocks that institutions are buying up and This strategy and the way to do that is by looking at like by looking for volume clues such as skyscraper volume on an earnings report or some sort of catalyst Let's just go through a few more examples All right, so UPST This was a really big winner and now the stocks pretty much ahead, but Yeah, so first This was the first big volume bar big move, right? And then just consolidating and then this one didn't work out too well Yeah, it was it's just pretty much consolidating it didn't end up breaking out until the second the Big move, right? So again big skyscraper volume here. Look at the var Look at the bars before this and look at this bar, right huge bar here pick up up And this is where the move basically starts for UPST So I don't want to be buying exactly when it's breaking out I want to wait for it to break out here Let her run up a little bit and then consolidate and then create create some sort of flag here So this was a nice flag here actually So nice tightening up here and then here I want to be buying and then yeah, just ride the way up and You can use a 10-day moving average or 20-day moving average to Basically trail your stop plus and keep moving it up and up that way you're not giving too much profit back and then Yeah From was also another big winner in 21 So this was the first big gap up look at the volume bar here Look at the volume bars before that right huge volume and then another big up up here And then again, this one was more choppy here than the rest Chopping is chopping around for quite some time and then it created a nice Breakout bar here, right notice this downtrend and then on this day big volume again And this one just takes off from there and again big volume on that big breakout day So that's also something that you want to look out for So Roblox is a great example So support over here resistance around the This area Right, it's consolidating before and then it has a really nice earnings report huge gap up, right? Huge volume look at the volume before look at the volume there as institutions buying right there So you want to be paying attention to it right there and then this one is It's a more subtle breakup, but First day it stops out around 110 and then here stops our stops out again around 110 And then on this day finally breaks out and that's the day that you want to be buying it So this could be a really nice a quick swing trade So it goes from 110 to 141 in just a couple of days So that's like 20 28 percent right there. So that this would have been a really good option swing trade and So typically for these trades I like to play shares or I like to go for a longer option calls like leaps So for pins and snap those ones would have been Those ones would have been great we play So you buy over here for a leap and then you just hold on to it and then you can use a 10-day or 20-day moving average 10-day or 20-day moving average just to move your stop loss up and that way you're not giving too much profits back Then yeah, so for UPST This one was also good. It would have been like good two months out or three months out swing play for a firm This one this one was a bit choppier So you have to be more careful about this one But again, this one would have also worked out just a bit more choppier For this one this one would have been a good one month play But in general I like to go like I said before I like to go out at least like a year So like the leap or I like to play shares. So this one it would have worked out initially But then it would have failed. So I probably would have gone out for a break even that worst case and Yeah, that's pretty much it Let me know if you guys have any questions and yeah, feel free to DM me on discord for any questions But yeah, that's pretty much it. Thank you
