A Squeeze to Remember

The Day Begins

Hello traders, Ross Cameron here! This morning was quite remarkable as I stumbled upon a low-priced stock, $NXTP, that I wouldn’t typically give much attention. However, it was at the top of my scanners, which prompted my curiosity. It displayed an impressive 200% squeeze, which was definitely enough to capture my attention. My entry into $NXTP was at around $1.26, right as the momentum was building. The buy signal I noticed on this penny stock was a big buyer on the level 2, giving me enough conviction to take a position.

The Setup Unfolds

When trading such stocks, my routine kicks in almost instinctively. I click on the ticker as it pops up on my scanner, cross-reference the news, check the chart, and dive into the level two data where the depth of market tells its own story. In this case, the level 2 buy signals were clear – a 15,000 share buyer signaled potential, and without hesitation, I secured a decently sized position, albeit with some slippage around $1.30.

The Trading Strategy

Every good trade starts and ends with a plan. My exit strategy was as clear-cut as my entrance – aiming for incremental profits at $1.40, $1.50, and beyond. Thankfully, $NXTP’s price move exceeded my initial targets, providing a compelling opportunity to capitalize further during pullbacks. It’s a thrilling ride, to be honest, as you watch your profits grow with each uptick on the chart.

Overcoming Early Setbacks

Earlier in the day, I faced a series of frustrating trades with $RMCO, chipping away at my confidence and my account by about $800. It’s never easy to start the day on the backfoot, grappling with small losses and missed opportunities. The trade took shape, albeit with a little less finesse than I would have liked, but these early struggles only made the success of $NXTP sweeter.

The Big Picture

Trading is not just about one stock; it’s about the confluence of opportunities that present themselves. Aside from $NXTP, there were notable moves in $MSAI and $POL, which revealed the day’s volatile nature. I missed some, capitalized on others, but the primary takeaway is always to remain on your toes in this game of peaks and troughs.

The journey of a trader is riddled with unpredictability and swift decisions, exemplified by the $NXTP trade today. All said and done, I finished the day with a net gain of around $5000. Ending the session with a win is gratifying, especially when rebounding from a less than stellar start. Every trade tells its own story, and today, $NXTP’s narrative was one of triumph against the odds. Happy trading!
