Trade of the Week for December
Week 1
Gilead Sciences, Inc (GILD) | As we pointed out in last week’s webinar, the current market conditions look good with all-time highs, but the undertones of momentum in the bigger picture continue to raise caution when selecting trade ideas. For this reason we are looking at a scan for stocks breaking a downtrend rather than paving new highs in price. This way, if the major indexes do find a reason to frustrate the Bulls, our trade selection will likely not suffer extreme volatility with a solid base already in place.
Week 2
Revolve Group, Inc. (RVLV) | Revolve Group, Inc. (RVLV) has given us a nice pullback right into our favorite 10-day moving average. From here, RVLV can put in a higher low and build from that. The short float is a whopping 25% of the total float of 25 million shares. All the indicators point to a stock that can keep moving higher with the short sellers getting nervous and flipping to the buy side.
Week 3
Smile Direct Club, Inc. (SDC) | This week we are going to the same scan, looking for the same scenario. Smile Direct Club (SDC) is rising up from consolidation with a giant short float % behind it.
Is there a story in this stock as well as the nice daily chart? Yes, during the COVID lifestyle of 2020, people have been investing in themselves with things like Peloton or Home learning.
Week 4
Westwater Resources (WWR) is Your Trade of the Week | The small cap stocks in the Russell 2000 or (IWM) have been on fire lately. This week, we will focus on a small-cap name in a hot sector for our swing trade idea. Rather than look for a high flyer momentum name, we are focused on a chart with a basing type pattern to it. Westwater Resources (WWR) is attempting another leg higher after working off so much of the move back in early October. WWR is resting above all the key averages here and just waiting to take flight.
