FLASHBACK: JR Romero’s Wild Tesla Prediction
On June 5, we asked JR Romero “If I could give you $1 million in any stock right now, what would it be?” JR answered Tesla (TSLA) — back when the stock was trading at just $175. JR explained: That Tesla (TSLA) was BRUTALLU undervalued The power of Tesla’s AI, robotics, and Robotaxi efforts Why he liked it more than Nvidia (NVDA) And what happened? Tesla went to $425+ for a 143% gain. At the time of JR’s prediction, analysts were predicting Tesla would hit just $181.90. JR was right. Wall Street was wrong. And now Tesla is the 3rd best performing Mag7 name this year with a 72% gain.

Brought to You By Scott Redler’s Power Plays – Get My #1 Idea Every Week. Welcome to the latest edition of Dog Bytes! SPX futures are down -13 following today’s PPI report and a big post-CPI rally yesterday. It seems like a 25bp rate cut for 12/18 is guaranteed. But the language is something of a mystery. Europe is flattish, and China is up ahead of its stimulus conference. ADBE is down 10% after earnings while AVGO reports after the close. There is still lots of great action in Mag7 and Bitcoin, which have been a cornerstone in the Power Plays newsletter ($99 for 1 year) the past few months. But let’s talk about the big topic today… TSLA has been AWESOME with so many ways to play it. The last setup was when it held $348 to clear $362. Yesterday, it made a new all-time high. And this morning it hit $429.52! Of course, this has some asking if TSLA can hit $500. My answer is of course anything is possible — we could see more upside in the weeks ahead. But the real question is what do I do today? I want to be trimming TSLA here, not adding. And so we’re clear — I would not be looking to get short. SMH remains challenged. Every time it’s about to break down, it holds. $234 held and is our new point of reference. $247 is pivot resistance. Above that, and it looks more constructive to be long. AVGO reports after the close. NVDA reversed to the upside yesterday. It held above $133.80 to get it out of the danger zone. It still has to prove it can be special. It needs to clear and hold $141 to look better. PLTR had a monster move this year. Recently, it made a big topping bearish engulfing candle with a high of $80+. It’s looser and wider. Short-term, $68 needs to hold. RDDT rebuilt fast after a high of $180. As long as this holds $152ish, it looks good. CCJ broke $60.55 to get any active momentum traders out, then lost the 8-day to confirm weakness. Some might try longs vs. $55.78. It has a lot of work to do.

Can JR Romero see into the future? With how things have been going lately… it sure feels like it! Back on October 9, he said the SPX will top 6000. You can watch that hot take here: So we wanted to update you on JR’s takes from this now-legendary video. First, the SPX went from 5792 up to 6,099. What else happened in that video? JR said Palo Alto Networks (PANW) was going back to $380. It hit that target and ran past $400. He also issued an insane $250-$254 price target on controversial Bitcoin name Microstrategy (MSTR). Mind you, MSTR was at $188.91 when JR issued that target… and it more than doubled that target! And of course JR has been bullish on Bitcoin since early October – a full grand slam home run! But what about Carnival (CCL)? JR predicted a $7-8 measured move. It went from $18.87 to $27.16! He also said Robinhood (HOOD) looks fantastic. It’s rallied all the way from $25.65 to $42.76! Nutanix (NTNX) was also in focus. JR said it would fill the gap to the $71 handle. And it went from $63.17 to $75.80. And his other picks: Starbucks (SBUX) $94.87 to $103.32 Chewy (CHWY) $30.06 to $35.87 Air Products (APD) $310.20 to $332.43 Snowflake (SNOW) $113.85 to $186.82 All of his picks have rallied since that video. 11 for 11. Not bad, huh?

Brought to You By Scott Redler’s Power Plays – Get My #1 Idea Every Week. We have mixed markets around the world as China stands out with FXI +6%. The PBOC published a very dovish report with looser monetary policy and more forceful fiscal support. Here in the US, the Mag7 names have been the stars lately, which is why we’ve been so active in AAPL, META, TSLA, and AMZN in Power Plays the past month. Unfortunately, I took off Amazon way too early. AAPL: I’ve been buying dips the past few weeks as it rebuilt and worked higher. I focused on buying through $230 and $237 and it hit $244+ to manage. I sold my calls into strength. It’s been digesting a few days. If it breaks $241.25, we’ll see how it handles the 8 day. TSLA continues to reward longs for buying pre- and post-election. Last week, the strategy was to be long above $348 and add above $361. It’s at $395+ so I trimmed some this morning. If it holds higher, it could see the $414.50 all-time high from 2021. AMZN had a mega move to pay investors who sat through all the selling drama and split. It hit $227+ Friday. Active traders also did well through $202ish, and it’s acted very well since then. I sold last week and need to be patient now. META gave us a big move. I bought it around $590 and added when it cleared $603. it hit $629+ Friday to manage. I’m still in stock but sold my calls. We’ll see if it holds $619 now. NVDA is the subject of an anti-monopoly investigation in China which has it lower. See if it makes a low in the first 5-15-30-60 minutes or if it becomes a headwind today. $140.29 is an important spot, then the 50-day is below near $136.

Your Tip for This Week: Keep an Even Keel I don’t know what’s worse: having too much confidence or not enough. So don’t go overboard celebrating your trading wins. We want winning to be a normal day at the office — not special occasions that are so rare they’re worth celebrating! And don’t go overboard crying over your losses, because underconfidence will prevent you from executing on good trades. You have to accept that losing is part of the game. Just make sure you lose small, and use those bad trades to figure out what you can improve for next time. If you learn from your losses, you’re at least getting something out of them.

Brought to You By Scott Redler’s Power Plays – Get My #1 Idea Every Week. SPX futures are flat and off the lows as we see if we can hold 5984 this week to keep upper commitment to this active sequence which started on September 11. Each week has a different feel. It’s a new month so we should get some new flows to keep upper levels intact. Markets are pricing in a 65% chance of one more 25 bps cut on 12/18, so this Friday’s jobs report will be important. We still get some news/developments out of the incoming President. Mexico/Canada tariff risks seem reduced, and the BRIC countries will stay with the US Dollar. Now let’s dig into strategy points for this week. Bitcoin became my #1 theme on October 11. It had a beautiful move from $62Kish to $99k+. We participated along the way in Power Plays via multiple names. On Friday, I added Bitcoin miner TeraWulf (WULF) back to Power Plays. Stanley Druckenmiller just upped his stake. And as long as it holds the $6 to $6.40, there could be very big upside in this one. So you can call me “RED WULF” this week, as long as this stock holds up of course! TSLA re-built nicely last week and perked up Friday. I did get long shares again and went with $360 calls. It was upgraded this morning with more FSD rollout talk. We’ll see if early strength builds. AAPL: I’ve been buying dips the past few weeks as it re-built and worked higher. On Friday, it cleared $235 to see $237.81. It seems like this can rally into year-end. $233 needs to hold. CCJ is the best-in-breed uranium play for institutions. The 50-day was buyable into the $50-$52 area and it hit $61ish. It needed to let the 8-day catch up and $57.11 held. We’ll see if it tries for new highs again. Keep this on your radar. Featured: Join Scott Redler’s Plays for $99 Get Scott’s #1 idea each week. That’s 52 weeks for just $99.

As traders, we must maximize the opportunities that are in front of us in the present moment. Forget about what happened yesterday, and don’t obsess over what may happen tomorrow. Let’s say you have a bad Monday. Don’t come in on Tuesday thinking you have to make up for it. You won’t be able to manage risk because you’ll be trading out of desperation. We all have rough stretches. But if we follow our principles and enter every day with a plan, our good days will outweigh the bad. Just take it one day at a time. On the flip side, if you make a fortune on Tuesday, don’t get lazy on Wednesday! Stick to your plan and make the most out of what you see. There’s no reason you can’t do better tomorrow. This Week’s Calendar The jobs report this week is key because there is some uncertainty over the Fed’s rate cut trajectory. And tech names CRM and MRVL will be closely watched as well. P.S.

Continue Reading -->I Bought Nvidia – Because a “Biblical” Rally Is Coming
On September 25, JR issued a $200 price target on Nvidia (NVDA). And while the stock has stumbled since earnings, he is still bullish, expecting the stock to rally in “Biblical Fashion.” According to JR, every technical indicator is lining up in bullish fashion. So he expects the stock to resolve much higher — and fast… precisely when everyone seems to have turned cautious on the stock. That’s why he said $132 was the time to buy. Of course, only time will tell if Nvidia hits his $200 target price. By the way, did you know that Nvidia is now the second best performing stock in the QQQ ETF this year? It’s far behind Applovin (APP).
Continue Reading -->20 Tips for Trading Success
Brought to You By Scott Redler’s Power Plays – Get My #1 Idea Every Week. It’s not easy to succeed as a trader. But it’s also not impossible. Regardless of style, the most successful traders tended to have a common set of mentalities, philosophies, and behaviors. And by the same token, struggling traders tend to suffer from their own common issues. So I wrote this article to help you identify holes in your game, and help you become a happier, more productive trader. As you read it, you’re going to realize that trading success is not just about technical analysis and intelligence. Your lifestyle, routines, and thinking process matter a lot. 1. Have a Plan I follow a strict set of risk management principles so I keep moving in the right direction. I respect key moving averages, pay close attention to the big trends, and keep losing trades in check. And, most importantly, I enter every day with a plan. When the market opens, I have a list of stocks I’m ready to buy or sell at specific levels depending on what I see. This way, I’m ready to react instead of hoping to stumble onto opportunities. 2. Create a Daily Routine You Enjoy The number one thing traders waste time and energy doing is… figuring out how to use their time and energy. Create a daily routine that keeps you happy and productive. For me, that includes everything from jumping in my ice barrel to doing my morning charts to checking on my Power Plays names. There’s nothing less exciting than a schedule. But the more I plan out my day ahead of time, the easier it is to concentrate on the market and get things done. Distractions kill your profits. So kill distractions with a routine! 3. Take a Blue Collar Mentality Trading isn’t about turning on your screens and swinging for the fences each day. It’s about hitting singles and doubles. Success comes from showing up and doing the work every day, the same way carpenters, ironworkers, and plumbers put together a building. For traders, this includes forming an effective trading plan, observing the market, and aiming for consistent profits. I’ve seen a lot of traders search and search and search for some kind of secret sauce. Hard, steady work is the closest thing to it. 4. Don’t Try to Fix Monday’s Losses on Tuesday Every day is a fresh start. As traders, we must maximize the opportunities that are in front of us in the present moment. Forget about what happened yesterday, and don’t obsess over what may happen tomorrow. Let’s say you have a bad Monday. Don’t come in on Tuesday thinking you have to make up for it. You won’t be able to manage risk because you’ll be trading out of desperation. We all have rough stretches. But if we follow our principles and enter every day with a plan, our good days will outweigh the bad. Just take it one day at a time. On the flip side, if you make a fortune on Tuesday, don’t get lazy on Wednesday! Stick to your plan and make the most out of what you see. There’s no reason you can’t do better tomorrow. 5. When Things Go Wrong, Get Small Trading is a lot like poker. You can prepare and study for years to get an edge over the house. But sometimes, you just get dealt a bad hand and there’s nothing you can do about it. We all find ourselves on losing streaks from time to time. What matters is how we pick ourselves up. If you’re in a rut, trade smaller and focus on just getting profitable again. This way, you can rebuild your confidence without digging an even bigger hole. One thing you must never do is up your bets after you’re down. That’s how you go from 5% down to 20% down to 50% down. 6. Keep an Even Keel I don’t know what’s worse: having too much confidence or not enough. So don’t go overboard celebrating your trading wins. We want winning to be a normal day at the office — not special occasions that are so rare they’re worth celebrating! And don’t go overboard crying over your losses, because underconfidence will prevent you from executing on the good opportunities. You have to accept that losing is part of the game. Just make sure you lose small, and use those bad trades to figure out what you can improve for next time. If you learn from your losses, you’re at least getting something out of them. 7. Use Technicals – Not News Headlines and Economic Statistics – As Your Guide to the Markets I earn my living trading, so price is the only thing that really matters. The news flow and macro trends are important, but not as much as actual market movement. Be aware of what’s going on in the world. Just take it all with a grain of salt. We make money by riding price movements — not by being trying to be ‘right’ about politics and the economy. If you read the news, you’ll always find a reason to sell. Like inflation or the debt ceiling or the election or geopolitics or whatever. The reality is the market can go up on bad news, and down on good news. Doomsday will happen sooner or later — but let the market tell you when. 8. Know Your Time Frame If you’re a short-term trader, you have to know your levels, what sectors are doing, and what’s on the calendar each day. But if you’re a long-term investor in a 401(k) or 529 plan, just keep those funds pumping in every month. So for each type of account or portfolio you have — short-term, long-term, aggressive, conservative, etc. — let your time frame guide your pace of activity. Be active and tactical with your short-term money, and slow and steady for long-term wealth building. In my short-term trading
