Trades I Took
RMSG
D1 gapper up 100% on MOU news, but I didn’t think the news really mattered and the company is out of cash. Took a starter short after its morning push.
I trimmed a little early, added back, and caught the wash. Later it started consolidating under VWAP, which made me think it could squeeze like UGRO on Monday, so I stopped out of the remaining short on the reclaim. I tried a quick long, sold when that failed, then got short again on the next wash. Tough price action, but manageable.
UGRO
Another wild move. It looked weak early and then started trending up in pre-market, which should have been a warning sign. I shorted the breakdown off the open but it consolidated, made a higher low just under VWAP, and broke out again, so I covered.
Then it put in a massive squeeze all the way to $16. At that point it was extended enough to look for a short, and I caught a small piece of the fade, but it didn’t even reach VWAP before holding and reclaiming. I stopped out, and that stop would have been the perfect long entry as it halted up. No one could have guessed what it would do after that. Hitting $50 now in afterhours. Just a monster move.
This is why risk management is THE most important thing in trading (especially small caps). You let your guard down for a second and your account could be gone.
USO
I tried a couple small shorts looking for breakdown continuation, but it bounced right away so I took it off.
Swings
Long WULF as a new swing position. Sold some GLW.
Current holdings: EQT GLW WULF
Takeaways
The low float names this week have been brutal. They’re either squeezing out relentlessly or putting in these last-ditch afternoon spikes that clear everyone out before reversing. The RMSG starter was technically outside my PMH rules, and even though it worked, that’s a habit worth correcting. All you can really do in weeks like this is manage risk and not let frustration push you into forcing setups.
Tomorrow’s Focus
Continue to stick to system confirmation rules, no matter how tempting the starter looks.
Question for Readers
When a name is consolidating right under VWAP and it reminds you of a previous ticker that squeezed, do you trust the pattern recognition and bail, or do you stick with your thesis and hold?
