[FREE VIDEO] AWX Trade Recap + Chat Logs

We got some amazing responses to the MTSL video so I wanted to go ahead and do another one. In this video I compare and contrast the MTSL trade with AWX and why it actually has quite a bit more potential for multiple trades here. MTSL was super hard to borrow and it was in smarter hands. In my opinion, MTSL holders were less likely to have the FOMO buttons. AWX on the other hand was available at most brokers. That’s when trouble starts because:

1. You get the guys who just short to short
2. You get the guys who short everything that is up
3. You get the guys who short every newsletter/chat room low float pump that get rocked.

So, the goal for me was $3-3.10s gap down and wash out on AWX re trap and squeeze w/ etc. But, obviously you need to adapt to every trade. If $3.05s are basing and showing signs of trapping then yes it’s ok to start at $3.05s vs. $2.80s risk rather than waiting for it. BUT you sure as hell should be prepared to see $2.80s. If you’re not, you’re sized in too much.

Just like the VICR trade today — if you’re looking to risk .30-.50/share on the name, just take it off radar and save yourself the trouble. Focus on a starter position, get on the right side and then scale from there. For these volatile trades, you may need to give yourself $1-2 wiggle room on the starter otherwise you’ll get stopped out by the spread alone. The same logic applies to AWX. If you’re trading a name that shouldn’t be up in the first place and is clearly getting shoved by a powerful bidder, then you need to prepared that there is also the chance THEY just WALK. Poof, see ya, buh bye.

When trading these, don’t get carried away with what you think should happen. You’ll be too biased. Instead, create a game plan and stick to it.

MTSL was a BEAUTY three of the four times, then I decided I have had such a good read on this I’m going to be patient because the insider sell was soaked up and the stock squeezed back. Insane. Then, a chat rat pumped it off open one day and they unloaded. That was the cue for me to not just sell some but to sell ALL. Free Exit. Stuffed full of long chasers. Instead, I kept some because I thought I had such a great read. I ignored what the stock was telling me (SCREAMING at me HEY I’m top heavy I’m coming in!!!). So my last 1/3-1/4 of the trade went from having a $1 + padding to losing about .20/share. ALL 100% avoidable if I didn’t let my bias overtake what the name was telling me.

So today, I focused on just that – sizing down proper spots and coming back in ONCE IT PROVES ITSELF.

So here we go:
