BETR Better Home & Finance Holding potential SHORT SQUEEZEOn August 24th, the shares of Better Home & Finance Holding (BETR), a company backed by SoftBank, experienced a drastic decline of over 94%. This downturn came as investors showed reluctance toward the online mortgage lender. The company had recently gone public through a merger with a blank-check company (Aurora Acquisition Corp SPAC) precisely when mortgage rates had surged to the highest levels seen in two decades.
In the case of Better Home & Finance Holding, an overwhelming 95% of Aurora shareholders chose to redeem their shares. This decision left the trust account of the SPAC with approximately $24 million by the end of June, marking a significant decrease from the roughly $283 million it held at the conclusion of the previous year. These details are revealed in filings.
Typically, when a stock has only a small number of publicly available shares, it becomes susceptible to high levels of volatility. Despite trading at $0.77 intraday, it's worth noting that on August 2nd, the SPAC associated with BETR was trading significantly higher, at over $60.
The situation with BETR brings to mind past posts of mine regarding the potential short squeeze scenarios witnessed with AMC Entertainment and GME Gamestop:
Given the limited liquidity in play, I am inclined to believe that a short squeeze might be on the horizon for BETR.
Looking forward to read your opinion about it!

Consistency isn't something you get, it is something you doConsistency isn't something you get, it is something you do!
Consistency in trading is a vital component, yet most traders think its something you get, it is not something you get it is something you do daily!
Having a trading plan is something you do and them follow (do again)
Following position sizing and risk management is something you DO
Executing your system is something you DO!
You get the drift! Do more good!
Wink or Dent. which one is betterwhich one is better Dent or Wink ?
Wink will probably grow faster than Dent.
1- It is leaving the Falling Wedge
2- Probably forming a cup pattern (long term)
Longing on ASX:BET - uptick started todayThe ASX market appears to be heating up.
Following on my other thesis on ASX marketing such as ASX:APT , ASX:CCP and ASX:Z1P , the other pick which I expect to see a lot of actions is ASX:BET .
There are a few catalysts for BET during the few weeks:
1. It has just completed a round of SSP with over subscription hotcopper.com.au
2. Its price action has started an upward trend ever since the Dec 2nd with large transaction vol on that day, and showing consolidation ever since.
3. Contrast with the Gaming/Online Sport books in the US market, most of which has gone up 30-50% since Dec, the deregulation of online sport betting in the US market should benefit BET as well.
4. The upward candle of Jan 21st apparently is testing its all time high at 0.795.
I am expecting BET to hit the 0.995 range before its earning release on Mar 2nd.
Full disclosure, I put my $$ behind my thesis and just built a position @ 0.77 with a 10% stop loss @ 0.7.
Long COMP/USDBullish on everything DeFi until $100,000 BTC
With ETH approaching new ATH's presumably by the end of this week, it won't be long before the real bull run begins. So far, hodlers and institutional money managers have led the charge, but true retail investment hasn't even begun to explode. When ETH passes into the $1,800 USD area, the real FOMO Market will begin. Things will be incredibly choppy but until BTC hits $100,000, no dip regardless of size should be considered anything but a correction, soon to be followed by an even greater continuation. Diversification is imperative as we head into the uncharted waters of securities regulations, however, I think it's humble to assume that at least one of the leading crypto DeFi exchange protocols will eventually find it's way into the client portfolios of institutional money managers. Watch for Uniswap (which is already registered security) and Compound, my top 2, as well as Balancer, and as much as I hate to say it HEX. For those of you who don't know Richard Heart's HEX Certificate of Deposit Token, it's definitely something worth checking out. As to the reliability of HEX and it's fixed contract distribution, stability would seem to go hand in hand, yet there have been rumors circulating throughout the duration of HEX's existence on Ethereum that a large portion of the ETH transformed into HEX goes straight to "Origin Address" that some skeptics consider belonging to Richard Heart. Rather it does or doesn't, price always seems to recover and with the influx of new retail investors on the horizon, I wouldn't be surprised one bit if HEX ends up taking off into the $1-$5 per token range within the next 2 or 3 years. MarketWatch has already declared that HEX was the best performing asset of 2020 and that was before BTC was at $33k. All that aside, Richards, "Trump-like" demeanor and occult like following has damnation written all over it. Overall, I'm bullish on everything in the top 100 except XRP. Sorry Ripple, you kinda screwed up.
trading market cycles with PRO SinewaveFor those who already know or simply heard about Sinewave oscillator created by J.Ehlers out of Hilbert filter formulas... The PRO Sinewave indicator will stun you !
For those who don't, well you might be missing a very interesting market approach and I suggest you to google the two names above to eventually start tipping a toe into the beautiful cyclical world of trading !
Usages can be very wide but I personnaly focussed on creating an algorithm to filter, and signal out of the sinewave oscillator.
It ended up with this PRO Sinewave indicator !
But there's an important thing you might need to know (if not already) is that a proper trading signal can never come out of a single indicator... (holy grail indicator doesn't exist and therefore every indicator will have its own strengths and also weaknesses). To avoid this I also developped the PRO Momentum wich is also a very complex signaling indicator (with patterns coming out of momentum based indications). Momentum and cyclical approaches are very complementary and when you combine the signals from the two indicators you'll obtain a very low risk trading signal. That doesn't mean they'll be 100% winners... Only fools could believe such thing. Everything about the Momentum & Sinewave signaling process is details in this PDF manual (right clic to download)
Anyway I hope I caught your interest on this great topic that is cyclical analysis of the market !
USDEUR: More upside potential nowUSDEUR: Looking a little better after another test of the lows and higher bottom just newly created. A couple of nice little trades about to open up now...
High - Low Bollinger Bands These work better than the standard Bollinger Bands for setting extreme ranges.
What I use these for is to use an oscillator to find an buy / sell signal then take that to the H L Bollinger bands and mark the spot. Most of the time, you will find that the price does not exceed this spot for the duration (length) of the H L Bollinger bands.
This makes them good for doing Credit Spreads such as Put Vertical Spreads and Call Vertical Spreads. Since the price will normally not exceed the bands at the extreme point, the trader can profit from the time decay and other factors.
