Cheat
AMMN (VCP - 11W 30/4 3T)I bought my positions today
February 12, 2024
Reasons:
1. Low-risk entry point
2. Confirmed stage 2 uptrend
3. Has gone through a majority line of supply
4. An early IPO stock to has big upward momentum to considered a leader in this type of market
5. High relative strength
6. Volume dries up as less supply coming to the market
7. A decent volume on the breakout
Flaws:
1. The market is still in a hard-penny environment, not much confirmation from the momentum stocks with only 25% of total stocks above the 200-day moving average
2. The index is moving higher but there are still less stocks setting up.
I like to see some follow through action from now.
AMMN - CHEAT I bought my positions today
January 15, 2024
Reasons:
1. Low-risk entry point
2. Confirmed stage 2 uptrend
3. Coming from a cheat area with a pause pivot
4. Dried-up volume, indicating all the selling has been exhausted
5. The stock is up 380% since the IPO, very strong leader
6. More stocks are setting up and breaking out
Flaws:
The market is still in a hard-penny environment with only 31% of total stocks above the 200-day MA
I like to see more constructive price actions and perhaps build the handle at around 8250 area.
PANI - CUP WITH HANDLEI bought my position today
August 4, 2023
Reasons:
1. Low-risk entry point

💖CVS, Cheat entry of potential cup and handle formationMight transition into a cup and handle but figured I'd try out what I see as a cheat entry on a cup here.
CVS has been making lots of new 52 week highs in the recent environment , which I find impressive. Also, its one of the few stocks that has been in green trading mode multiple times on my day trade strategy in the last several weeks while the market fell and seems like there is some strength from related names, which made it on the same day trade list making new 52 week highs lately ( AFL, CB, ANTM, WRB are the related names btw) . I like CVS the most for a swing though . Arguably , I suppose this are on the chart could be base # 2 of the uptrend too ...
