🚀 Hello everyone! 🚀 I am posting a report for the fourth week of May May is weak in all respects, crises
🚀 Hello everyone! 🚀
Posting the report for the fourth week of May
May is weak in all respects, crises and uncertainties put pressure on the psyche of traders not only in Russia, but also in the world. As a result, liquidity and volatility on the exchange are reduced.
As I noticed, the mood of the population also changes in waves, and as a result, there is some alternation of “good-bad” months. In general, I expect that June will be good and liquidity in the market will increase
But, despite the weak week, I did good positive results for myself)
💸 The growth of the depot for the week amounted to +152$ in dollars or in ruble terms, the growth turned out to be +8823₽, as a percentage +3.26%
(no matter what they write to me, where did you get such a rate, I answer that income from the growth of the dollar depot in rubles is taken into account here)
💸
🗓 More than a year has passed since I started switching to a scalping strategy.🗓
🧮Current depot increased from mid-February 2022 from $500 to $4769$ + 500$ withdrawn during this period
Those. during these months, the depot increased by +1054%🧮
In accordance with his annual plan, he fulfilled the May norm (see plan screen)
$USDRUB
Exactly went sideways 79-81 ₽ In general, I count on a global bullish trend.
Let me remind you that to master the scalping strategy, the best time is the post and premarkets.
I present to you my current recommended list of US stocks for scalping, not for investing!! (list updated weekly):
💸💸💸💸💸💸💸
BYSI, CLSK, COIN, MARA, RIOT, MSTR, AMTI, ZYNE, SPCE, MOMO, CLOV, GTHX, CGEN, APPH, SKLZ, ASTR, GOSS, FTCI, QNCX, SLQT, APLT, INSG, SWN, ESPR, AFMD, QRTEA, TAL, VIPS, BLUE, JD, BABA, CCL, NU, WISH, LYFT, RIDE, BZUN, VALE, NKLA, BNGO, SOFI, TWOU, NKTR, EAR, INO
💸💸💸💸💸💸💸
I will note for you the promotions that I had the most productive and interesting this week:
1. $SI
– increase on it for the week +55.29$
I actually expected more from her, in many respects the trading was spoiled by multiple robots connected to it on Tuesday and Wednesday, which simply scared away many traders, and if on Monday the volumes were very good, then since Tuesday they have become sharply low. On Friday, with more or less normalized volatility, there was an opportunity to trade calmly.
I worked with her in positions of 100-200 pieces
2. $SPCE
– an increase on it + $ 29.58
There was good volatility on news expectations in premarkets, which allowed trading
Worked on it for 100-200 pieces

High froth volatility, increased risks and reduced entry order volume
Worked with her in positions of 200 pieces
4. $ZYNE
– an increase on it + $ 7.08
He walks in a narrow corridor, on Thursday, however, he was caught on a small moose. Purchased poorly during the week
Worked with her for 400 pieces
5.$CGEN
– an increase on it + $ 7.07
The work is extremely accurate, it breaks down by 3-4 cents, on Friday it flew like crazy, not allowing to earn
Worked with her for 200 pieces
6. $AMTI
– an increase on it + $ 6.24
Pleased at the postmarket, well tolerated the next day
Worked with her for 100 pieces
7. $TAL
