It Crossed the Rubicon. Then it doubled in a day

Good morning,

It was the same recipe: Super sketch, low float, reverse split, and it was about to cross the invisible zone that runs through every stock chart in the market…

When this same setup appeared in the past, it signaled positive gains 3 out of every 4 times. And on day one, my new Rubicon Trading System delivered a 162%+ winner.

Watch Last Week’s Briefing While It’s Still Up

The trend continues: Market meltdown, all the normies and boomers freaking out about the market selling off, the price of oil… boo hoo hoo. But the trading opportunities are just ridiculous.

Here’s the Daily Accelerator agenda for today:

• The Big Picture: You can cry in your Cheerios, or you can take advantage. You are your own person.
• Watchlist: Right out of the gate, my Rubicon Trading System picked this big winner.
• On My Radar: Why Tim Cook is dancing, guns are flying off the shelves, and the t-shirt the lovely Mrs. Bohen got me. Did she get it right?

The Big Picture

You can panic, cry in your Cheerios, and tell everyone “the sky is falling” because the S&P is pulling back. Or, you can isolate the types of trade opportunities we look for.

Last week I told you about urban-gro Inc (NASDAQ: UGRO). That’s the kind of risk-to-reward setup I look for every day, regardless of what’s happening in the market. But you might have missed one of my best calls of the week: VisionSys AI Inc (NASDAQ: VSA).

When I sat down with Tim Sykes last week to tell him about my new algorithm, the Rubicon Trading System, little did I know its first pick would be a 100%+ winner.

Straight up: I’ve been trading this setup for over a decade, so I know it works. But whenever you come out with a new trading algo, you’re always concerned. It’s almost like how you feel if you’re trying to launch a new business.

Did I expect a 100%+ winner on the first day? No. Even though I know that the setup leads to gains 3 out of 4 times, a 100%+ winner on day one is… exceptional.

I’m not your boss, I’m not your dad, and I don’t tell you what to do. I can only make recommendations based on 20+ years of trading. Long ago I learned that as a new trader, there is a lot of BS out there. You have to wade through it.

In this market, take advantage of every opportunity to learn. And take advantage of every tool available to you. That includes watching my sit down with Tim Sykes and joining the Silver Dollar Club.

My Take

When the seas are calm, there’s no money to be made as a day trader. The more volatile the better. That’s your best hedge for long-term hold plays that are getting crushed. Focus on the short-term plays until the market settles down.

Watchlist

Take a look at the VSA chart from March 26 into premarket on March 27. This is one to save because it is a perfect example of what happens when a stock crosses the Rubicon:

Notice how VSA just kept going after the breakout and consolidation? That’s what can happen when the 5 Market Forces come into play.

On My Radar

• Rumor has it that Apple plans to open Siri to ChatGPT rivals Gemini and Claude when iOS 27 drops later this year. If the Apple Store fee applies, it’s a huge win. Either way, it strengthens Apple’s take on AI: own the platform, not the model. Well played, Mr. Cook, well played indeed.
• I’m not one to spread fear and I’m a positive guy. But I also like the obvious. That’s why I’m not surprised Smith & Wesson Brands (NASDAQ: SWBI) is up on the year. Put it on your StocksToTrade watchlist.
• The lovely Mrs. Bohen bought me this shirt. I think she nailed it…

I might not be for everyone, but I will always share what I’ve learned in 20+ years of trading with honesty and integrity. Have a great week.
