It seems Five Below had some more to give after Monday’s bonanza. It wasn’t quite such plain sailing, but there was money on the table and it would have been rude not to take it. Here’s the chart.

Here’s an interesting trade to start the week. FIVE ended the day down about 11%. It offered up a couple of highly profitable trades. I got the first one, missed the second (I’ll explain why in a minute). So I must have shorted it, right? Wrong. Here’s the chart:

Here are a couple of nice simple trades. A stress-free way to end the week.
First up was QCOM. This is a stock that has been on and dropped off my core list multiple times over the years. As soon as any news comes along on this one, it’s automatically on my watch list for the day.

I know I bang on about not having favourite stocks, that it’s important to treat the market equally because a good trade can come from anywhere, but man Tesla has been bringing home the bacon in the Walsh household over the last year or so. Wednesday provided a true banger.

I feel like we’ve been spoilt for big winners this past month. After KRTX I didn’t expect anymore bangers. Especially as we head towards the end of the year and market participants start drifting away and volume drops off. Clearly the holidays haven’t quite started yet, because Wednesday gave us this lovely short on AYX:
