Stocks in Play - 2nd April 2026
Today in Focus: Long Weekend
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, VIX Strong, Gap Down
Commentary: Not much to say. The market bounced for two days and now we’re falling again right at the inverted 10/20EMA. It’s more important as to where we close today. It’s a short week so market is closed tomorrow. It seems likely that nobody will want to be long over the long weekend. New swings unlikely to work.
SKYQ looks like the high velocity nanocap day-trade vehicle of the day. I don’t see anything else worth looking at. Trade with caution.
Enjoy the long weekend.
