Alex (@AT09_Trader)

Alex is a 22 year old small cap day trader who specializes in short selling. Since early 2014 he has been grinding and trying to perfect his niche. When he started he would only trade on the long side, but didn’t start to find success until he joined IU and discovered what short selling was. His biggest strengths are that when he takes a giant loss he wont let it get to his head and when he smells opportunity he isn’t afraid to trade aggressively and “bet the farm”.

Watch List for 3/2/17 from Alex

^^^ nutty action out there lately   DRYS: Same sh*t different day. Still adding short, and still holding for the eventual $1 test and reverse split. No brainer short on all pops for me. Clearly the sell is still on. AUPH: Nice move into a/h. Should be fun...

My Journey to Diversification

Timing is EVERYTHING. The more time that passes the more I realize just how important timing and patience really is. Bad timing on a trade can be the difference between a profit and a loss. But patience on the trade can be the difference between a normal trade and a...
