VUZI: +61% in 2 weeks – Bull & Bear Trading

This is not a typo – another big gain with VUZI, an augmented reality leader. VUZI was just featured as a Top Trade in our last issue. Terry Donahue from Bull & Bear Trading closed a 122% gain on March 2, selling at $25.32. Terry issued another buy alert on March 5 at $16, well below his exit price 3 days earlier. Just two weeks later Terry booked a 61% gain, exiting at $25.04.

CLF: +39% in 24 weeks – Peak Analytics & Consulting

This is the first time Tim Walsh and Peak Analytics & Consulting has been featured as a Top Trade: “We saw CLF complete a nearly perfect “ABC” downside correction at the end of February and projected a move approaching $19 from an entry at $13.32.  Fundamental pressures – including price inflation on materials and expansion of global GDP post-pandemic – lent to this technical set-up working out very well.”

SKLZ: +34% in 1 week – Tom’s Stock Picks

Tom Waller delved deeper than a short seller’s cursory analysis. “A short selling report knocked SKLZ down below $25 in early March. I read the short report and they clearly didn’t do their research. One of their claims was that the NFL made no mention of them, but a simple google search proved them wrong – this was a buying opportunity. SKLZ had a pending earnings report, which meant they could not respond to the report. I planned to hold for longer than a week, but the rebound happened a lot quicker than I expected.”

LQDT: +32% in 3 weeks – RajCAP

Another Top Trade from Rajendra Parmar’s Elliott Wave-based swing trading system, which uses crowd behavior to analyze market patterns. Rajendra Parmar, RajCAP: “LQDT was in continuation pattern with an impulse cycle in a 240 minute time frame. It was perfectly corrected before the final move higher. We entered at $15.82 and exited in a little over 3 weeks stock at $20.95. The trade was a simple trend continuation pattern, which works well especially when market is in the same direction of trend. This type of trade typically offers a great reward potential and high probability of success.”

VUZI: +121% in 6 weeks – Bull & Bear Trading

Acting decisively following a successful application of emerging technology. Terry Donahue, Bull & Bear Trading said on January 22: “Vuzix is a leader in the R&D and manufacturing of augmented reality glasses. Today a first in U.S. surgical procedures took place as Vuzix AR glasses were used in a knee replacement surgery. The number of applications / use cases for these AR glasses are nearly unlimited.”

APA: +97% in 4 months – SmarTrend

This is the first time SmarTrend has been featured in Top Trades but they have delivered consistently strong results. To identify their ideas, SmarTrend models real-time pricing data, analyzes company financial fundamentals, considers corporate actions and maintains a library of 300 proprietary indicators. These algorithms generate uptrend (buy) and down trend (sell) signals. In this APA trade, patience was required but it was rewarded with a sizable payoff!

MARA: +64% in 6 weeks – RajCAP

Another Top Trade from Rajendra Parmar’s Elliott Wave-based swing trading system. Rajendra Parmar, RajCAP: “MARA was in a continuation pattern as an impulse cycle in a 60 minute time frame. The stock is directly related to the Bitcoin price as the company invested in Bitcoin. We entered when it gapped down with huge volume. The risk/reward ratio was more than 5x. The trade was a simple trend continuation pattern, which typically offers great reward potential and high probability of success.”

CPRI: +49% in 15 weeks – Whale of a Time Trends

Samantha LaDuc has been on the lookout for opportunities to profit from recovery-driven sector rotation trends since December. Here are her comments from December 2: “This name is one of the strongest recovery stocks, and has just broken a long term downtrend. We believe the stock could increase close to 50% from here over the long-term.”

MCFE: +34% in 8 weeks – Alpha Insights

Jeff Huge, Alpha Insights on January 11: “The shares of McAfee Corp (MCFE) appear to have resolved a classic patterned base formation of the “Head & Shoulders” variety. A sustained bullish inflection above $17.96 would project a measured move to around $22.50, for at least a 25% gain. Stop-loss $16.50 for a 3:1 positive risk skew.”

ALT: +23% in 1 weeks – Rick’s Picks Bold

Rick’s Picks are frequently featured as a top pick, using a disciplined technical approach. Rick Ackerman: “Altimmune is a stock that often encounters violent price moves. ALT’s chart provided us with the type of ‘mechanical entry’ that offers a great risk/reward tradeoff that we seek to deliver to our followers.”

CLVR (+ warrants): +277% (warrants – 2 wks) / 106% (5 wks) – Cara Biotech, Metals & Top Picks

Bill Cara delivered this idea two ways – through a higher risk/reward warrant trade and also with the underlying stock. “This is a vertically integrated, global cannabis company with a solid board and management team, with former US Senator Tom Daschle as a special advisor. They offer a sustainable, high-efficiency large-scale cultivation and extraction of cannabinoids and produce pharmaceutical and consumer brands in the wellness, lifestyle and beauty segments.”

TIGR: +262% in 7 weeks – Barry Steinman Opportunities in Emerging Growth Stocks

A big winner in online brokerage in China. Barry Steinman: “China’s economy is booming post-pandemic and their middle class only now being created. The ‘mobile first’ strategy that has been a smashing success for American retail investors using platforms such as Robinhood is now being played out in China. The platform also enables investors to trade on multiple exchanges around the world.”

TRVG: +169% in 1 week – RajCAP

RajCAP identifies an opportunity in Europe. “The trading idea was based on the Elliott wave trading technique and selected for a short term trend reversal trade with a zigzag pattern. The risk/reward ratio was 5.43, which is quite good for short term swing set up for 1-2 week trade duration. I recommend a trend reversal set up done in pull back only when it starts outperforming the index and after a proven confirmatory wave pattern.”

BB: +163% in 2 weeks – viditrade

A stock caught up in the r/wallstreetbets turmoil, but one with true potential. Rod David of viditrade: “We all know BlackBerry as the handheld device/phone that got buried by flip phones, iPhones and Androids. But realizing its brand is tied to security, they’ve focused on that. And AMZN just partnered with BB, which could go a lot of ways, but generally in one likely direction.”

OPTT: +133% in 10 days – Tom’s Stock Picks

OPTT converts ocean wave energy into electricity. Tom Waller of TC Investments: “This is an innovative company to say the least. They have ‘Powerbuoys’ that they offer to customers like the US Navy. I was invested in this company in July and its price hit $4.70+ (6x) in the last 3 months. It’s set to run higher with the inauguration.”

CCIV: +109% in 3 weeks – Bull & Bear Trading

SPACs remain hot. Someone who followed every one of Bull & Bear Trading’s ideas would have doubled their money over the past 8 months. Terry Donahue from Bull & Bear: “Churchill Capital may bring Lucid Motors public. This stock seems to be at the right place at the right time.”

SMMT: +92% in 8 weeks – Turbo Trading Swing Trade Membership

Bob Knight, our top stock picker since Trade Exchange’s inception continues to pick winners, with 22 of the top 80 trades over the past three weeks. “Sometimes, it is not always about trading the stocks in vogue. We also find stocks with less volatility but that still give huge gains. Lots of people would like to double their money in less than 2 months.”
