Stocks in Play - 7th April 2026

Today in Focus: Deep Dive Day

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 50/200MA, VIX Strong, Gap Down

Commentary: Lot’s of noise today with Iran Deadlines and Trump Tweets. I don’t see any catalysts that I am looking to trade. The QQQ is probably at decision point around here and we may see a pullback depending on whether the Middle East issues ratchet up.

Today is a good day to go and review some charts and start some Deep Dives! I’m starting work on a Parabolic Short deep dive today. Looking forward to sharing some results. This is a much better use of my time than trading substandard Stocks in Play.

Trade Updates:

Current Positions: FSLY, DELL, SWBI, TH, PLUG

Delayed Reaction/Continuation Watchlist:

Note: This is my methodology for identifying stocks in play. There are many valid approaches to trading catalysts—find the setups, timeframes, and risk parameters that align with your strategy.
