My Take
I have given some great advice on trades this week. Many may have taken that advice, but it’s less about giving you the specifics and more about helping you understand WHY those are opportunities. They won’t always work out, but when they do, you not only gain the money when you sell - you gain the confidence and a potentially repeatable setup for future trade opportunities.
That’s why I’m so bullish on the tools I use and the BEST SALE OF THE YEAR is Trendspider’s 4th of July sale which just started. You can try the software out for 2 weeks for ONLY $5, but let me explain why the yearly subscription is so beneficial.
Since the July sale is always the best, you could go for the Premium tier which saves you 42% off the price and gets you 2 training sessions (which are the biggest benefit to Trendspider). BUT LOOK AT THE ADVANCED TIER.
The Advanced tier is the most expensive, but IMO it’s the most beneficial based simply on the 52 trainings per year (1 per week). This is a 1 on 1 zoom call with a product expert at Trendspider showing you EXACTLY how to use the tool. It’s not a group session where you can only chat - it’s 1-1 video call. You have a question or something you want to look up? Do it with a product expert.
Because many of you may be learning technical analysis AND a new software at the same time, this is KEY.
So let’s break down the cost of $107 per month for 12 months:
4 trainings per month (1 per week)
At $107 if you just assume you’re only paying for the trainings, that’s $26.75 per 1 hour of training. Most professional 1-1 trainings are FAR more expensive. My girlfriend gives piano lessons at $70 per hour once per week.
If you assume you’re paying for the training, YOU’RE LITERALLY GETTING THE TOOL FOR FREE!!!!!
Use my link and you’ll get the 4 hour algorithm, the custom scanners I have set up to find the stocks I post in this newsletter, custom watch lists that I’ve set up and so much more.
Then you have the Seeking Alpha Sale going on as well. The ultimate “Gary Bundle” is Trendspider with the Seeking Alpha Bundle. The yearly subscription to both for me always paid off in just a few short months since they:
Find stocks and trade opportunities I wouldn’t have found with the free tools I used to use. The 4 hour algorithm for me was a game changer, but I also have so many other scanners that I use. The Quant rating in Seeking Alpha was also a game changer as it allows me to quickly see if that’s a quality stock for me to get in to or not.
Set alerts on price or technicals. Both tools have alert settings so I don’t have to sit and watch charts all day. We all have lives - just set the alert and when I get it - I can decide if I want to take action.
Alpha Picks is a no brainer portfolio where I simply set it and forget it. I’ve recently been trading some of the high flyers in the portfolio, but I would have never known about these stocks had I not subscribed to the portfolio.

Friday
🚀🚀A week in review - all of these stocks I pointed out
✅ Monday - I suggested CCL 0.00%↑ - up 13% on their earnings on Tuesday and continued gaining
✅ Tuesday - I scanned and showed DPST 0.00%↑ as a buy in the 4 hour algorithm and suggested it was a good trade - up 14%. I also suggested MU 0.00%↑ for a trade around earnings.
✅ Wednesday - I pointed out that Tuesday I found SEZL 0.00%↑ as a top stock in seeking alpha - I didn’t like it when I looked at it but - it was up 10% and trending - up another 6% yesterday. I also mentioned POET 0.00%↑ - up 8% yesterday.

✅ Thursday - I showed you how you could have made 8% in MU 0.00%↑ and the trade I mentioned on Monday HIMZ 0.00%↑ - took off for a 22% gain yesterday.

Now - where do I find these ideas? From the tools so let’s go over some announcements
🇺🇸🇺🇸 THE SALES THAT ARE GOING ON
Trendspider July 4th sale is NOW LIVE
Don’t forget to get the free 7 day trial for seeking alpha premium and the savings on alpha picks and the bundle
Alpha picks has recovered from its underperformance in short term and is now beating the S&P in every time frame. 1mo 3mo 6mo ytd and since inception with a huge 172% gain while the S&P is up 60% during that time. Realize you could pay the expense of VOO 0.00%↑ and make 60% or you could pay the subscription for alpha picks (which might be less) and nearly triple your returns.
Stock charts are organized chaos
And if you don’t believe stock charts are important - watch this video of random chaos and how even stock charts have some predictable outcomes.
The July trade is out there … who’s fading this?
So what’s the best stock to take advantage of this? TQQQ 0.00%↑ trade that I brought up on Monday and was trading at $72 - that’s a 12% gain and we are not in July. You could also do a leveraged Dow or leveraged S&P like UPRO 0.00%↑ which is up almost as much.
Why you should be on Substack
is right! GREAT STOCKS and analysis. And
one was great - prediction markets are a real thing now - is it investing?Taco Trade for July 9th - they are chickening out
Trump will have to sign an executive order to extend the July 9th tariffs …. But we got the first sign the taco trade is still on
They are signing deals - so expect July 9th to probably be bullish
💵 The Weak US dollar is a headwind for earnings
There is going to be a positive this earnings season though and honestly - I’m way too dumb to explain it but it will be the weaker US dollar. 40% of the S&P earnings are international so a weak dollar will help that.
NKE 0.00%↑ may have started the positive trend for some moves
But MU 0.00%↑ chart yesterday shows maybe a weakness in the semi conductors. It’s been super hot …
Some Mag 7 stocks are REALLY doing well and have more room to run
AMZN 0.00%↑ - bullish - this is the $cost model
And prime day is coming up … add in this seasonality
And MSFT 0.00%↑ and NVDA 0.00%↑ may be the first to $4T in market cap
And META 0.00%↑ got a huge upward revision in their price target to $812
💵 ETF’s may be telling the story - social and momentum
Let’s look at the YTD with a couple of ETF’s
MGK 0.00%↑ - the Vanguard Mega Growth ETF
MAGS 0.00%↑ - the Mag 7 ETF - equal weight
VOO 0.00%↑ - the S&P 500
QQQ 0.00%↑ - the Nasdaq 100
Interesting things I see :
YTD - QQQ 0.00%↑ is beating the others by a little bit, but MAGS 0.00%↑ is definitely lagging. Could this play catch up?
Over 1 year, MAGS 0.00%↑ is almost double the others - remember - it’s equal weight so AAPL 0.00%↑ is not dragging it down by underperforming
Once you get out of 1 year, MAGS 0.00%↑ should not be looked at since it hasn’t existed that long.
But when you go to 5 years, MGK 0.00%↑ is the clear winner, but 10 years it’s clearly QQQ 0.00%↑ . So which one do you buy and hold?
Here is the social and momentum trades using ETF’s
But YTD it’s clearly SPMO 0.00%↑ which is the momemtum ETF that’s winning
Then add in a social sentiment ETF - BUZZ 0.00%↑ and you can see that momentum and Social Sentiment are clearly winning in this market - is that sustainable?
Earnings
$nke was crazy yesterday - they signaled the bottom is in but the stock was on a wild ride. The chart tells the story and until a trend changes I would absolutely be looking at the wild ride for wins. That was a great after hours trade.
🎁 Tokenization and Crypto
Something to keep an eye on … this is part of the new world order of crypto but it is tokenization and it will be the new frontier
And what are the best crypto stocks?
And just as a contrarian - COIN 0.00%↑ is running so hot - bound to be a pullback - CONI 0.00%↑ - inverse 2X - as the bubble is bound to burst back down.
