Stocks in Play - 20th March 2026
Today in Focus: PL, FLY
Trading Services I Use in my Trading:
StockAnalysis.com - I’ve been using Stock Analysis as an affordable but reliable method of looking at New and Upcoming IPOs, Earnings Calendars and most notably KPIs (Key Performance Indicators). Stock Analysis allows you to view the KPIs for many companies with up to date metrics and segments that you can cross reference against Earnings Results. This is incredibly important when understanding what metrics move a stock. At $65 per year it’s a no brainer. They’ve given me a discount code if you use IRISHBORNINVESTOR they will give you another 10% Off.
Situational Awareness
Market Condition: Market Under All MAs (Incl 200MA), OPEX Day
Commentary: Market crossed below the 200MA for the first time since March 2025. We are still hovering around oversold levels, some stocks are ignoring the market but we are in a precarious position. Also today is Options Expiry day. These tend to be strange days in the market where you get lots of whipsaw action. Sometimes it’s best to chill out on these days. Especially with the market sitting where it is.
As I’ve said all week. I’m not too eager to add additional risk here unless the opportunity seems very strong. Caution advised and expect whipsaw price action throughout the day.
I’m late to do my research today so don’t have time for full write ups. I’m looking at PL after earnings. I’ve caught every leg of this stock so far and I think it’s worth trying again here as the earnings & guidance are strong and management commentary bullish. FLY, Recent IPO good headline numbers and Gross Margin strong flip positive. Both of these have the Space theme going on.
Have a great weekend!
