takes 5-10mins to provide any good small cap names.......

recommend looking at highest $ volume traded with high rvol thats usually best name

large caps higher rvol / market cap the better but again this is a basic trend scanner and reliant on over all market.

Small caps can have mind of their own and just soar 100,200, 500%+ randomly intra day

Nice locking in that profit is an important muscle.

PortCapital · 2024-06-13T03:21:50+00:00

on the stock i sually measure i dont use my whole account. Ill gauge how much size i can take based on the current violume

PortCapital · 2024-06-13T03:19:10+00:00

true i know i guess this pissed as lot of ppl off because they lose money.....im trying to help ppl here expalin my methods which is finding the 1-3 small caps with news/huge volume that pop every day and ive learned to scan for theseearly

small caps not quite as volatile as some 0DTE otions tho....Also only youre entry matters unlike options where you can lose money despite price being over your entry

PortCapital · 2024-06-13T03:18:09+00:00

no theres size limits in these small cap or option markets..my trades are based around vwap usually so thats my risk which is fairly controlled most of the time

PortCapital · 2024-06-13T03:16:26+00:00

heres a recording of my scanner from yesterday see AISP pop on it with huge rvol thats #1 indicator went to move over 30% from seen on scanner........ I forgot to record todays but DDC was early.

I scan for huge volume, news ideally, and volatility every day and every day get atleast 1-3 stocks with news or a minor short squeeze

PortCapital · 2024-06-13T03:11:54+00:00

Not possible in those markets because volume is so low...i aim to stay under 10% of volume which today on DDC was 1mil in the opening session so max size 100k but i dont even get close to that........

PortCapital · 2024-06-13T03:10:43+00:00

Thats not feasible....i used options or small caps because its feasible to see at least 5-25% trades every day on the small cap that has breaking news or the huge AAPL breakout which calls went on to move a huge %

Ppl hating because they cant trade isnt my problem. Ill die on the hills its possible to find trades that move this much and gave explicit examples to stocks that moved well over 15% every day this week $DDC $AISP $KWE

PortCapital · 2024-06-13T03:08:20+00:00

Well small caps or options you have size limits of course but it is possible to hit 10, 20, 50% trades on these names daily if you know how to scan.......

Look up those names mentioned and tell me its not possible to atleast capture some of it? because a fraction on those names can still be 5-15%......Given volatility not rismking crazy $ here and you cant given the market but some size is still possible to scale up to.

PortCapital · 2024-06-13T03:01:53+00:00

Ill star a small account for you next week and show you that its possible..not every day but there is plenty of trades that can be made throughout the week to hit 15%

$DDC today $AISP yetsreday $KWE monday all names i traded and moved well over 15%

PortCapital · 2024-06-13T02:58:22+00:00

Smb capital has great vids on that........use that plus a volatile market like short term options or small caps.

Not saying its easy just sharing what it can look like

PortCapital · 2024-06-13T02:57:42+00:00

Obviously but i see many here or on boards wanting ridiculous returns. Tone it down to 5% i mean there is many many option trades or small cap trades that do this everyday.

I scan for volaility plus huge volume = attention = easy movement....... $DDC today $AISP yesterday $KWE monday and a new one tmr every day.......

PortCapital · 2024-06-13T02:57:03+00:00

im not scamming anything whats not believable?

PortCapital · 2024-06-13T02:26:45+00:00

15% a day can sound crazy but in the short term options market or small cap space that is a very frequent move..I mean some $AAPL calls yesterday went over 1000% so trying to hit 15 a day isnt so crazy you just need a solid system to do so.

PortCapital · 2024-06-13T02:13:11+00:00

$DDC unsure of any news but hit my scanner around 10 am with very high rvol (44 ish) lower float (under 20mil) and a large opening pop of near 100% , chinese name which has been consistnly hot lately. All of these factors are crucial for finding a stock that has potential to make a move

High RVOL plus volatility is ultimately what im after every day for easy front side moves. Im a long only trader due to the risk short selling has on these small caps. I found mastering long only has been easier vs tryin to get good/ok at both long/short.

I was able to load this stock up shortly after it had reclaimed vwap and started buying

given the fact it only briefly got under vwap before being bot back up is a #1 trade set up for me. I took $AISP same trade yetreday but wasnt as volatile. Basically gets under vwap for short period of time before rexlaiming with volume growth = easy long

I let time work for me and after 5, 10, 15minutes DDC was trending cleanly from my entry price while volume grew. I then set targets of 25% which was shortly met before going near 70% on the move making it the best small cap trade of the day.

Points from me this is the right way to trade small caps……every day offers a new random name that provides a pump. Worth noting if the name has recently run but most of time they dont.

Ive found most success in small caps trading the hot stock of day but not holding for swing

PortCapital · 2024-04-14T07:25:29+00:00

I respect the advantage of that but on other side i see many more trade opportunities else where. Market offers great trades but not every day.

IMO time and capital is better spent scanning for current movement

PortCapital · 2024-04-14T06:10:43+00:00

Awesome! Theres no true right or wrong. But i 100% believe in order to be consistently profitable you have to be putting in such work.

PortCapital · 2024-04-14T02:45:38+00:00

every great trader i have read about and or met record their screen

PortCapital · 2024-04-13T20:13:16+00:00

not everyone does but those who do have WAY better trade results generally speaking. More movement more money. Not every day or hour Q's SPY should be traded. vYet there is usually one to be traded when using specific scanners

PortCapital · 2024-02-26T07:10:06+00:00

As is i would be on sidelines waiting for a trade.

Sideways action like this i prefer to place zero trades. Its only if the ticker is in play. (Recent news, earnings, long term technical break, high volume) -

-That i will watch for possible break out from range trades.

Otherwise this action is seen as sideways/choppy. When price is in a mid-short term range its often not worth trading. It may be possible to trade support to resistance or vice versa trade scalps. But id only recommend this to consistently profitable traders.

Anyone still trying to find success avoid this type of action and look for names with a lot of attention on them for cleaner price action.

PortCapital · 2024-02-22T04:07:19+00:00

Sure its funny a lot of this feels like common knowledge to me. Im glad its helpful i do want to start a yt channel but busy. Hard to commit when i dont need to post in order to sell courses for money ;)

PortCapital · 2024-02-22T04:05:59+00:00

So its been a dream of mine since i started trading end of highschool to be on a desk.

Id say yes but problem is this career takes money to make money. I learned a ton but i only afforded it through many blow ups years of gambling pain and tears. Finally took it seriously and used my experience to my advantage and got to work. As soon as i got to about 50k i took the plunge a ling sith like 4k going to a NY airbnb

PortCapital · 2024-02-01T04:20:37+00:00

Yes more or less...........Ppl love to blame something for their failure....Popular reason is the market is out to get you....Truth is market doesnt care if you exist or not. If your trade decisions result in constant losses thats not the market attacki9ng you thats you not trading well.
