Trade of the Week for February
Vermilion Energy, Inc. (VET) (Triggered) has a strong chart that is coiled up around 52-week highs. Forget trying to pick bottoms and pullbacks, this week calls for something that has already shown strength.
Robinhood Markets, Inc. (HOOD) The chart of HOOD initially sold off after earnings then it reversed on strong volume while the rest of the market indexes were heading lower. The risk reward for setups like this can’t be beat. All of the bad sentiment has been priced into HOOD while giving us a clear selling point to get out if the stock price does not drift higher over the coming weeks.
CF Industries Holdings, Inc. (CF) (Triggered) The fertilizer and agricultural/chemical stocks have been quietly moving higher in response to the terrible supply chain issues and this is causing some concern. The charts of these companies confirm this concern with all the relative strength. The name we will focus on is CF Industries Holdings Inc. (CF).
ARCH Resources Inc. (ARCH) (Triggered) has only 15 million shares in circulation for trading and 33% of those shares are held by short sellers who will need to buy the stock back if it keeps going higher. This recipe for a short squeeze is going to be our Trade of the Week.
