We focus on two types of opportunities:
1. Base Pattern Trades
We look for stocks building these reliable patterns:
Classic Base Patterns:
Cup and Handle
Double Bottom
Flat Base and Box Base
Inverted Head and Shoulders
VCP Pattern
IPO U Pattern
Within these patterns, we often see these trading opportunities:
50 EMA Bounces
Undercut & Rally Patterns
Breakouts
Cheats / Tight Price Action
Key Point: Base 1 and Base 2 patterns are the most reliable. We typically avoid Bases 3, 4, and 5 due to higher failure rates.
2. Special Situation Trades
These are specific setups that can lead to explosive moves:
High Tight Flags
Earnings Gap Ups
Buyable Gap Ups (BGUs)
Short selling setups
