 All right, Cyber Traders, good morning and welcome on back to close things out for this week, this Friday, April 22nd. I was about to say April 12th. Great to see Brian and Grant and Nina and Leda and all of us live inside the Cyber Group room. Great to see all of us back on social media. Glad to know that you folks could at least hear me this time. Yesterday afternoon I had a small little issue I realized halfway through the meeting. I thought I was good to go. I am good to go this time for all of us on Facebook Live and YouTube. Great to see all of you folks there. TGIF, right? I mean, hey, it's gorgeous out here in Long Island, New York. I know the Fausto ended up just going away earlier this week with family. He's enjoying time off. Listen, if it's nice out where you're located, we tend to say this from time to time. But once you make your days pay, once you hit your goal, even if you don't hit your goal by the end of the first hour of the market open today, if you're up a little bit, take the money and run. Don't try and stick around. Don't try and force anything out there. I mean, really, if you go back to your trading journals, if you go back to the C2 trading journal, we just talked about it this week in class. If you looked at journal consistently, and if you see, hey, if you're an 80% trader win-loss ratio, which, by the way, is extremely difficult to do, and if you are 80% and above, the question would be from there, how frequent are you holding on for the big runner compared to scalping and taking the tiny wins? Well, hey, if you're an 80% trader and you're still making a little money, perhaps you could stick around. Perhaps it's worth it for you. But if you're 50% or lingering around there, which is still good by any standard as a day trader, especially if you're able to cut your losses short and let your winners run, if you're 40% to 60% trader here, I wouldn't look to try and force anything. I would look to take the money. I would look to enjoy your weekend, get some errands done early, enjoy the weekend from that point. You know what I mean? I know we ended up having Friday off last week, but why can't we have Friday off this week? That's the goal as day traders here, right? So, hey, H-C-D-I, it's on the screen here. It's not the best looker inside the live trading room before I started the meeting. I even said on the first call out of the stock, I said H-C-D-I spotty chart so far, starting to move up to 250. So spotty chart means points of inactivity. Moved up a little bit from yesterday's close, but it's not really like the best looker in terms of liquidity on the order book. Actually, right now, it's starting to fill in a little bit more compared to when I first called it out. So that actually, it's a little bit more appealing now at this point. So, I'll slip this on our watch list at least so far. I think that the V-launch rate treated us pretty nicely this morning already. That one looks a lot better, although pulling back a bit. There's a couple of others that look better than this as well. So I'll put this just on our list. It'll kind of be near the middle by the end of it. I wanna go over a couple of stocks that we ended up trading from yesterday. And then from that point, we'll look to re-scan the market, see what else we have there for the close. So, hey, first and foremost, folks, we're kind of still reeling off yesterday's market close where, hey, I was wrong. I thought the markets wouldn't really drop off much further from 2.30 to four o'clock. I thought you'd see a little consolidation. Hopefully, perhaps you short squeeze, a little dead cat bounce perhaps is some shorts cover. Well, we had some shorts cover, but the market kept dropping. It actually only just continued to fall from the afternoon meeting onwards. So, it actually provided a couple of good short opportunities, although we're not really fancy seeing the market just continue to slip off like this. I was pretty hopeful to see a nice squeeze up yesterday afternoon. So, hey, I'm hopeful for that today. I'm not gonna lose faith in that potential squeeze, but for right now, at least, a couple of stocks that we ended up shorting from yesterday, the plug trade to begin, PLUG, this one for as much this ended up popping. I think it was back on Tuesday of this week. It ended up dropping off and then yesterday got crushed, ended up dropping off shortly after the open from 27, closed just around 23. So, heading into the market open, this could easily be a good stock to keep on our side list, just one that could go with the market. Trading just about 200,000 shares in pre-market so far. It's a spotty chart, so I'm not a fan of that just yet. It's trending down. There is a trend here to work with in pre-markets. So that I do appreciate. But for right now, I think there's actually a couple of other sideless stocks that look a little bit more active than this at least in pre-market so far. You have the Neo trade, you have the AMC trade, which was looking pretty interesting from yesterday, ended up dropping off pretty nicely after the market had opened up, ended up breaking the lower heading into the three o'clock or 2.30 meeting, I should say. Right now, kind of looking the same as the PLUG trade. The Neo trade, same thing. A little bit more active, perhaps you could say in pre-market, not up or down really anything. Lucid, Lucid LCID, this one's at least easy to borrow this morning on my platform, ended up dropping off really nicely, very similar to PLUG from the market open all the way to the market close. And with that, we could easily keep a focus on this as well, heading into the market open. Now, the ones that we ended up doing really well on from yesterday morning into the afternoon, the ones that really ran for us, the red box trade, our DBX, so obviously not one that moved with the market yesterday, but ended up making a pretty good pop, took a while to get the gears going. The stack was relatively flat in pre-market, you know, it was up percentage-wise off of news, but you know, not all of those stacks are going to look to run perfectly upon the market opening up, if at all. So for this one, it ended up just taking its time, it didn't break lower. So, you know, hey, provides a little hope, right? You know, hey, if it's not going to break lower, maybe there's a chance it can break higher. And, you know, it's easy to say that here, not all of them do, but this one ended up providing a great slingshot afterwards, heading into the early afternoon. Once it ended up breaking above its opening print, but from there ended up taking off all the way up towards 350, and then up towards, you know, just near four, 385 that is, I think. You know, hey, for this morning, it's, you know, up 1.9%, it was up a lot more in pre-market, it was trotting back down at least after, you know, six o'clock in the morning. But, you know, for right now, this, I could also keep on our side list, not really going to put it on the main specialist just yet, you know, maybe by the end of this meeting, perhaps, and then the last one I wanted to cover, at least from yesterday, which one was it? Was it the CRXT, was it? That was one from Tuesday's trade, or from Wednesday's trading, I should say, right? You know, this one ended up having a nice pot more in pre-market, it followed it into the market open. I think I'm referring to the CYN stock that that's what I think I'm doing there. But, you know, CRXT, at least to show either way, you know, more of a pre-market trade that we had early on yesterday morning as well, unfortunately, never ended up breaking higher. So lower highs, you know, the lower low, and then, you know, even right now, well, it dropped off in the after hours, and even now, it's just not really looking too great of an opportunity this morning. And then finally, the one I meant to click on here, the CYN trade. So this one from yesterday ended up providing a great opportunity, really, from the pre-market into the open. Didn't take long for this one to get rolling again off of two, a little shake under and over from two, and that was right around 9.40, 9.45 Eastern in the morning. You know, hey, provided a good chance for a run-up towards 2.40, 2.50. You would like to see even more with how steady it looked, but, you know, hey, it's one of my catchphrases here, right? You know, if you follow me in the afternoon, if you've been, you know, listening to me in the morning, I normally don't tag in for Fausto like this when he's away, right? But, you know, it's to say that when the volume dies off for a stock, typically, so does the trade itself. So with that volume died off, even prior to 10 o'clock, and certainly afterwards, well, this was dying off right at the same time. So, you know, that's just something to always keep in the back of your head, especially for a stock coming off of good news, made a big pop in, you know, pre-market into the open. All right, so that takes us to VLON, right? VLON, you know, we had the HCI trade on the screen to begin, but VLON ended up treating us really nicely. You know, it's funny, I wrote this in the trading room, Fausto does this himself in our live trading room that we host, you know, every morning, eight o'clock, you know, he'll always write, you know, 8 a.m. move. Grant B, one of our long-time students will always say 8 a.m. move, you know, this morning I tagged in for him, Fausto's not here, obviously. 8 o'clock hit, said 8 a.m. move. This wasn't on our pre-market list because there was no action on it before 8 o'clock. Put the pre-market watch list out at like 7.40 Eastern time. Whenever students wrote, you know, 8 a.m. move didn't come, like three minutes later, it's like, man, give it a little patience here. You know, like, if it's not just a stock from the morning watch list, it could certainly be something that pops that, you know, just came out with news after 8 o'clock. So this reacted off of news that came out after 8 o'clock and man, this thing ended up running, right? This is Vlan trade. So you got to have a little faith, John. And the 8 a.m. move here, geez, this thing ended up flying. And I know he did later on, obviously. I think he posted a nice trade from 150, but ended up jumping in or ended up popping off of 120. And then from there, built up towards the 150 level, built up, built up. And then we had the real pop, you know, that was right around 8, 10 Eastern time. So from there, easy to say, but a pretty nice move, pretty simple move up towards just about 230, 235. The pre-market high so far. You know, one thing that really peaks my interest on this trade more than anything is the gap fill that you see on the daily chart. Whatever news came out back, you know, last month in March, crushed the stock gap down from like 8, 750-ish down towards, you know, 250, that is. I think 248 was the top back in mid-March there after the gap down. So, you know, it's still kind of holding underneath there, but if it ends up popping that, then it begins the chance to try and fill that gap. So that presents an even better opportunity here for this morning. So, VLON, definitely, I'll just put on the watch list here so far. All right, folks, I got no water right now. I got this salsa drink though. Let's see what else we've got here after the market opens, or prior to the market opening up, we'll just drop down the gainers and losers list here. Let's see, MITQ, this one was on the pre-market list. Ended up making a bit of a pop, you know, in the after hours, and then from there just chopped around. This one didn't really treat us too nicely. I mean, the VLON, obviously, we had a lot more of a focus on after 8 a.m., thankfully so. So, you know, without VLON, I'd say this pre-market would have been like pretty bad, pretty slow with little opportunity. But, you know, MITQ, hopeful there's an opportunity once the market opens. You know, it's a prototypical level one stock so far. So I feel like any one of us in our live trading room can get their hands on this type of trade. Just don't trade too many shares. But, you know, MITQ definitely goes on our list for right now. I'm not gonna really, you know, be the newsman today, folks, for all of us in social media, gonna try and be efficient with time. But otherwise, whatever news came out led to a big pop in the after hours. Remember, we don't trade the news, we trade the volume, we trade the big money. So with this, it's holding over 150, but it's making lower highs. So with lower highs, I would expect a lower low or, you know, at least a break of support off 150. If not prior to the market opening up, then, you know, perhaps after. CD, spotty chart, you know my stance on that now at this point throughout the morning meeting. So, you know, it's up 10%. It's, you know, 200,000 shares, but we don't need to put this stock on our watch list. CLF looks way better. I think CLF could be earnings related. You know, if you know the news on that, let me know. If I'm wrong on that, let me know too. But, you know, CLF ended up making a big pop from after hours and then from there in pre-market this morning, ended up making a good slingshot from 30 up towards 32, 32-ish broke above, you know, but pulled back at this chart. It's very active looking, trending down off the highs, building support off of seemingly 31. So, you know, it looks to say, you know, just trust the whole numbers on this stock. Of course, there's going to be other levels on this trade to follow. You know, the opening bell print, any other iceberg orders that pop up on book map perhaps. But, you know, it seems really nicely at 30 to 32 back down to 31, you know, trust the whole numbers here on this stock. But yeah, definitely CLF I'll put on our watch list here. Cleveland Cliffs, I know one of our students' bills, you know, happy with this right now already. Let's see what else we got. D-WAC here, spotty chart, not a fan of it. And then at that point, we're already under 5%. So, you know, you got the NAT trade. I forgot to mention NAT. NAT did make a good move yesterday for us, more from the market open, but ended up actually providing a good short for us heading into the remaining parts of the day. Easy to borrow at least. So, you know, it's pushing up a little bit here, but not really too thrilled with it so far, not really too interested in it just yet. All right, we hop on over to the losers list here folks. Gap, GPS, I always say this about Gap every time. I like Gap anytime there's like news on it that gives me a reason to trade it. So this stock for the longest time has been around this like, you know, let's just generally say $10 to $20 price range I feel. And, you know, anytime it's come out with earnings or perhaps other news otherwise, you know, it's just had a liquid order book. It's had tight spread, all the makings of a tradable stock. So it's not to say like, I've crushed it personally on this trade. I really haven't. I've done like, you know, all right back in the day on it, I'm sure like little 10 cent, 15 cent gains on it here and there. But, you know, it's just a good stock to trade. Good stock to watch, you know, especially off news like this. So, you know, GPS I'll put on our list or as a short, of course, with it down over, you know, we're nearly 19% right now. CRSR, not really too familiar with this trade at least, you know, dropped off in the after hours and a little spotty pre-market, although it's easy to borrow my platform. So let's just check to see what the historical charts are looking like here. Let me go back a number of years just to make sure I get this right. Yeah, so as far as I can go back, I mean just at least 2020 here, late 2020, this opened up as an IPO gaming stock here. Courser gaming, I'm not familiar with it. Looks like the all-time low, if I'm not mistaken, was off of 14.09, it's a lot closer today to it than it was yesterday, that's for sure. You know what, in hopes of this order book filling in more, I'll put it on our list. It'll be at the very bottom though, this one. I like the other ones a lot more. But if the order book fills in on this trade, I'll be a lot more interested in the stock. So this is more of a speculative one that we'll put on our watch list just based on the liquidity. But it's near all-time lows and shortable, so that sense will be interested in it. It's only trading 50,000 shares compared to the others, but it's enough for what we would want to watch for at this point. IO is at cheapy, and then what else do we have here? CYN, we talked about CRXT, we talked about CEI, can't do anything with their Novavax side. It's just too expensive, I think. Oh, holy smokes, you take your eyes off a stock for a little while, geez. This thing I thought was still like around like 90 hundred bucks. This is like $46 here. This is falling more and more within our price range. You know, it's, right now I'm going to pass on it, but you know what, hey, it interests me more now than it does a few months ago. You know, we've got to keep it within a certain price range, folks. Like typically that's within like one to 30 that Fausto and I go through in pre-market. Sometimes he'll put a stock on the watch list that breaks the rules a bit. Sometimes that I will, but it's not often and then otherwise it's just, you don't really want to trade a more expensive stock if you're not going to really milk it for as much as you can, which just to be transparent, none of us really could be perfect on trades, myself included. So I'd rather trade at least something that's more within a price range. So we try and focus on one to 30. Some of us are between one to 10, one to five even. John's loving up this V-Lon trade. Uh-oh. It's not our live trading room here. Yup, there's another pop. You're 215 held, thankfully, but yeah, it's pushing back up pretty nicely. You know, hey, it's getting closer to that 248, the 248 top that we had from the gap down. Now, if it breaks that, if you look at the daily chart, had a tough time breaking under four before that. So between four, and I think the levels I lined up on my main chart myself, I think I have 360 and 380 as the real bottom here at the time. So in a dream world here, in a perfect world, if it can break 248 and begin filling a gap, perhaps it has a really good chance to hit up towards that 360, 380, but you know, don't hold your breath for that folks. The volume dies off for a stock, typically so does the trade itself remember. All right, folks, if there's anything else that's up, down, left, right, more than 5%, talk to me, let me know. If there's anything that you see posted in the chat board. Robert says GM Josh, GM everyone. Is that good, General Motors or? I'm kidding, I'm kidding.
