All right welcome back everyone um today, we're gon na be talking about really the methodology behind the weekend watch list: okay, hopefully you're on the weekend watch list hit that link below 100 free every sunday commentary, video charts, etc. Click that link get on it, but for the sake of the day, i'm going to talk to you about the other four days a week. Yo we do the weekend watch list i mean listen. We want to get you guys, some content on the weekends.

So that's one of the great ways to prepare for the next week, so i run those scans into the close on friday, sometimes after the close on friday to kind of give you that framework to be ready for monday morning. But it's not i've been asked, and you know they're like hey. Is this like a specifically a weekend scan no okay? So, that's why i want to talk you through the methodology and what we look for, because this scan and the process we're gon na get in the process is applicable five days a week. Okay, so so yeah, it's not like a special scan, something to do with the weekend.

This is the number one way to find those gappers, as we call them those weak, open red greens, those dip and rips the day before now understand that a lot of the big movers that we talk about on stocks of trade advisory also hit that link below. I am still live every single day, 8 30 eastern take advantage of the stocks of trade advisory. A lot of those stocks that we talk about are what i call the day wonders. Okay, that's that you know.

That's that you, you should watch the dip and rip videos, but real quick. You know the day one or is that low float stock with a terrible chart. Super duper sketchy, but they dropped that monday morning, pr or that tuesday morning, pr and uh. You know, and everybody piles in you're not gon na find those with this scan because most of them have zero volume the day before most of them, don't have the chart pattern that we look for, but that's the amazing thing about stocks, trade, advisory and those are More just kind of quick in and outs too.

So all right. So, let's, let's talk about swing trades and what we look for so very simple scan here. But let me and keep in mind this is swings and gappers. Okay, and if you don't get the terminology, you know i've said it several times, but with stocks of trade advisory you do get my ebook included and especially when it gets to this jargony stuff.

I try and keep on these videos because i know this might be. Maybe it's the only trading video you watch or maybe you're new to the channel. I really try and stay away from the jargon, because, especially if it's your first video and i'm throwing out all these acronyms and and terms and stuff you're like what's going on, but anyway, we're looking for swings and gappers on this two different setups but similar scan. So what i want to look for is stocks that have good volume the day before, because i don't want to find - and this may be confusing - i'm not looking for the day wonders.

Okay, i want the day tours the day three years the day, fours that um the day three surge pattern. We just dropped a video the other day. It's kind of one of the hottest patterns patterns out there, these big movers that consolidate and then break on day. Three, when you know, when short sellers got the t, plus two notification, i'm getting all jargony again, um anyway um.

So what we want to find is we don't want those day wonders because, when we're swinging trading when we're gapping etc? What what makes you know this is a question kind of a newbie question, but i think a lot of people don't think about it. What makes a stock put in multiple day runs: okay, think about it more buyers. Okay, if you got a stock, that's up. 30.

40 percent actually are low, we're probably going to talk about at the top of the scan. Here i mean this thing's up uh as of right now, what was it 23 or 32? 30. 32. Okay.

So what do we need to push this through day, two which arlo nice setup? I love that scan top number one on the top of the scan um. We need more buyers. Okay, we need more interest, okay, because if it's a day one or low float dip and rip everybody rushes in and everybody rushes out and then most days they just kind of fade back into oblivion, with arlo as an example, earnings winner, you know, surveillance play. They make cool cameras and stuff.

Maybe you got some of arlo's products, kind of a cool company um. You know it's kind of a it's. What i'd call a hot sector? You know every everybody's, putting these cameras in doorbells. You know they're a lot like the ring, etc.

Definitely a hot sector, hot technology. So that's what we look for. We want a story. That's gon na draw in buyers on day two and day three.

This is an earnings winner. We love that you know again a lot of videos on earnings. We, you know, i think the number one time that you should be focusing on day trading is during earnings season. Okay, so let's go back to the scan, i'm looking for big volume the day before then big volume today, so i want day two volume and then very simple stuff, but there's a little bit of secret sauce here, um stocks greater than a dollar.

I just i mean if you're trying to swing trade 20 cent stocks, i mean it's, it's yeah. They trade, the true penny stocks. Okay, then here's where the magic happens, as i like to say. So what i'm looking for is stocks that have hit a new 52-week high today, but then have uh they're they're testing that 52-week high by two percent.

Okay, so they've pushed up pulled back a little bit, but they're hugging that 52.. A lot like we talked about that hugging v, app, okay, just two percent, because i want to see that stock. That's hit the 52s. Now why? Why do i care about that? Everybody has scans that look for 52-week breakouts.

Everyone has alerts that look for 52-week breakouts um because they work number one, especially when you're talking earnings winners, buying breakouts on earnings. Winners is a very, very viable strategy. So that's why everybody has the scans. That's why everybody has the alerts and it ends up being a self-fulfilling prophecy.

So now what i can look at with this simple scan, i can see stocks that are there hugging that that range now i got 129 results, but remember the nice thing about stocks of trade is, i can filter and if i go to like say, 2 million Shares today, on the lower end, you know a simple filter. You know that gets me down to 37 results and i could probably even rack it up to like 5 million or so to give me even less, but you can play with the filters because i mean listen, you go down here at you, know, vtip trading, a Couple million shares you know just it's not in play: okay, arlo earnings, winner, unusual volume, cool sector, etcetera, etcetera, that's what we look for so now you found the stock. What do you look for? So? Let's imagine i'm doing the weekend watch list. Okay and i'm going to focus on our oil, this is going to be one of those stocks that gets added for that gapper, as well as that swing type idea.

So you can see it's currently basing right here at 11.50, and this is that a great whole dollar - half dollar those key psychological levels you can see v wap - is at 11. I mean, i know it's 1109, but we tend to round so now. I've got a great setup as we head in the afternoon. You take that 1150 break right here.

You risk v, you're risking 50 cents. That's your afternoon! Uh gapper play now. If it pulls back to 11. If it fails on 11, you stop out you move on, but if it gradually grinds higher, you look to gap it, which means you pull it overnight: stock gaps.

You remember, i need to get another shirt if you get the gap, sell the gap. Okay. These are. I mean it's up.

35. You get another 10 20 gap. You get the gap, you sell the gap, we don't try and hit home runs. Okay, now, let's say you're running the scan at four o'clock: okay, which it's a you can be run at midnight.

If you want - and let's assume arlo closes at 11 50. - that's that amazing. We love that weak, open red to green setup. Now so now you know i go to the multi-year chart big break out there i mean this two-year chart broke out.

Okay, we love to see that, and especially if it closes at 11.50, that's going to be our entry next day as well. So again, let's imagine that you're running the scan after the markets, close you're, looking hey where's, an earnings winner, hey what am i going to look to trade tomorrow, beautiful set up here? So now we look for tomorrow morning, the next day we look for that weak action. Now, when i say weak, it's w-e-a-k again jargon a lot of people. Think i'm saying w-e-e-k like on the weekly chart.

I mean weak price action so that that poll like a lot of selling, because what that does that lures in short sellers, then when the stock goes green, not only do they panic, but everybody that got the stock is adding to a winner at that point. So you just got buyers and buyers and buyers that can push that stock higher so great setup. This would i mean, listen again. If today was friday - and i was doing the weekend watch list - i guarantee arlo would be on it.

So um use the power of the scan, love, love, love, earnings, winners, love cool technology, build that case and, most importantly, if you want to know how to work through that process check out the steady trade team, i know i talked about the watch list. I know i talked about stocks to trade advisory. Steady trade team is where we really get in in depth. Okay, twice a day every single day we get into you, know the minutia of trading so check that out, use the scan and could i hope you uh? Oh, oh, oh, let me know, did arlo play out.

Uh drop me a comment at the time you i'm recording on march 2nd 2022. I did our low gap. Did it do a week open, ready, green drop me a comment and i'll see you next time.
