TRTB is a momentum play that caught our attention when it began to break out during yesterday’s session. The characteristics of this high-flyer have us on alert for the possibility of continued upward movement, and a subsequent dip-and-rip situation. The stock has a low float, and as we know, that type of structure can give way to surges in buying pressure such as those that are fed by heavy momentum.
This stock virtually exploded yesterday, so it’s going to be very interesting to see how trading action resumes today. With such rapid movement, it wouldn’t be surprising to see significant bounce opportunities once it pulls back from these monstrous initial gains and begins to rebound.
Side Note: TRTB was actually tied to another stock that has appeared in our reports, APDN. Last month the two companies announced a collaboration agreement to develop a DNA-based authentication solution (Read Joint PR) A quick tag search for APDN on our blog shows that we began tracking this stock years ago, going all the way back to the summer of 2012 when the stock was trading below .10. The company just completed an uplisting to the NASDAQ, and is currently trading in the 2.70-range.
Direxion Daily Jr Gld Mnrs Bull 3X ETF (JNUG)
We’ve been continuously tracking JNUG for several weeks now; on Tuesday, after tagging the play in our extended watchlist, we witnessed a 15% increase from 5.29-6.09.
Yesterday brought forth a consolidation to a morning low of 4.83, and a subsequent intraday snap-back to 5.80 (+20%) and then continued to consolidate into the close, and this morning it appears to be gapping up above the $5-mark.
We’ll be keeping a close eye on JNUG moving forward; despite the dollar being at 5-year highs, supply and demand still play a large role in gold price action, and from October-January with the Indian Celebration of Diwali and Chinese New Year coming up, demand for gold will be pushed to high levels.
