Re-entered this stock at the $1.65 breakout level, with the thesis that It would rip past the $1.80s. This trade took a little while to work, however, I lowered my stop loss and was patient with the trade. It started to spike to the $1.70s, so I got out with a small win. The stock did what I thought it was going to do and spiked to $1.89, so I sold too soon. Ideal play on this ticker was to stay in the RCT with a lower stop loss and sell in the $1.80s.

Entered this trade at the RCT based on its drone news with military applications. This stock spiked a little, then hit my stop loss at $1.45, so I got out. I need to be a little more patient and lower my loss by 1 or 2 pennies on RCTs, as this one spiked to the $1.80s after it dipped to $1.45. Either way, it was a disciplined trade, but I think it would be best to lower the stop loss by a couple pennies to capitalize on these "dip and rips"

Bought this stock afterhours, as it is a hot sector play. I thought it was going to have a big HOD breakout, similar to TURB. It quickly double topped at the HOD then dipped down to the $3.80s quickly. My stop loss was $3.83, but it was moving fast so I had a few cents of slippage and got out at $3.79. Good trade, just a failed breakout. Better entry would have been to dip buy it at $3.50 support level. Good lesson.

Re-bought this stock when it was showing signs of strength, thinking it was going to re-test the $4s again. It started to fail and dip again, so I got out. Undisciplined and over traded. Went from green to red on the day. Need to stop chasing after the initial move, as this trade felt like gambiling.

Bought this stock at the RCT entry based on its news with the Navy. This was a box checker RCT pattern, as it had a strong catalyst around 8am, low float, 2x (now more) float rotation, up approximately 54%, and is a previous runner. I sold a little too soon, as I sold the rest of my position in the $2.20s and it went to the $2.50s. Need to be a little more patient with winners, but great trade either way and locked in profits.

Bought this stock again on its breakout past $.47. This stock has shown strength when breaking out, so I did the same thing as I did on the first trade, scaled out into strength, then sold the rest when it was getting weaker and started dipping. It is still holding near its highs in the $.50s, so I will continue to watch it. Another nice breakout trade on this ticker.

This stock was approaching its breakout level at $.35 premarket this morning, however, it double topped a couple of times, then broke out with strength and volume around 4:20 AM. I bought 500 shares in the big green candle and scaled out 200 shares into strength. Had to sell the remaining shares when it started dipping and showing weakness. Nice 15% win on this trade.

Traded this stock after the 9:45 AM timeframe when it hit the HOD around $2.00. It spiked to $2.10, but then slowly started to fail at the $2 level, which started to act as resistance. This was a planned trade, with an entry, exit, and target, so I stayed disciplined. I got out a little early because the Wi-Fi was in and out, so the platforms kept freezing. Good, disciplined trade.

Bought this stock after it was spiking and started to panic down toward the VWAP level. I noticed it was approaching the VWAP, so I switched to the 1-minute candles and waited until it started to bounce, then entered the trade. I sold a little too soon when I scaled all out of my position in the $.81s, as it went up to the $.90s. This was a great trade and I recognized the pattern. I will continue to look for this pattern in this market, as it seems to be working well.

Traded this stock after 9:45 AM, as it was dipping near the open then ripped through the HOD. This was a great dip and rip pattern, and was very similar to VRME on 1/5/2026, similar in price too. This stock had news come out after 8am and had great volume and float rotation. This was a box checker dip and rip pattern. I will continue to look for this pattern more and trade less premarket until premarket plays get hot again. Sold too soon, but good trade.
