What a week, what a week, what a week!
Shadow Trader members knocked it out of the park this morning after we sent an alert late Thursday to enter the Block (SQ) March 1 expiration, $66 strike calls ahead of earnings…
And shares of SQ bounced almost 21%* on the open to around $82, sending those babies soaring — BANG!
This is directly from my Telegram channel, where it was an emoji party… except for those three poor saps who missed the trade 👎
Buck up, guys! There are new opportunities emerging each and every day from the stock market. You may miss the boat one day, but there are countless others setting sail!
So what do we have in store next? Well…
We’re through the bulk of earnings season but there’s still plenty of juicy tickers to trade. We didn’t see anything hitting the News Flow Scanner for Monday just yet, but we did see an interesting order in a certain precious metal…
Gold has really fallen out of favor, which may mean it’s exactly the time to start looking at the metal and its miners.
Like Buffett said, be greedy when others are fearful, and fearful when others are greedy.
And this is a big boy order — worth about $1.2 million in premium! — that’s at least worth a look.

P.S. Wall Street Prays You Never Discover This…
Stocks that miss earnings four quarters in a row DON’T get much love from the talking heads on CNBC…
They’re like the ugly ducklings of the investing world.
And if I told the “so-called” experts I was about to place a trade on one of them…
They’d probably laugh me out of the studio and call me a moron!
You see, my trading strategy doesn’t follow conventional wisdom.
I don’t look at the RSI… I don’t look at MacD… I don’t even look at volume.
I’d show up late to the proverbial party if I spent my time watching those things.
Instead, I spend most of my time looking at something that 99% of traders miss out on.
