Today in Focus: SOGP

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.

Market Condition: Market Under all MAs. Gap Up, VIX Elevated

Commentary: Some definite short term divergences yesterday. RSI Oversold on many time frames, Market Red and VIX Red, T2108 still holding under 20. Not surprised we’re opening with a bounce. However I’m not convinced and the extreme nature that I’m looking for isn’t there for me to be trying to press a TQQQ or SOXL bounce. I’m not skilled enough at the nuance of these reversals to be getting involved when I don’t feel it’s true extreme moments (Tariff Tantrum 2025 etc.).

Exposure down to lowest in months. Everything today will live or die with the market so individual stock picking isn’t that important for our style right now. The main work will be done by reversal traders and oversold bounce traders. We want a better market for our work.

That being said the best thing I see today is SOGP. Strong earnings, Chinese Voice AI Play. Tomorrow is a new quarter so we will certainly see some volatility and rebalancing/window dressing today by institutions.

Current Positions: FSLY, DELL, SWBI,
