TUE 3/10: LGND – BUYING (1/3) @ $213.85

10:55 AM – No matter the market environment, I continue running my routine screens looking for high-ranked stocks with solid fundamentals showing technical strength. I’m always looking to buy into strength — and when I see it, I act. This is a rule-based approach. Non-emotional. Follow the rules: sell weakness, buy strength.

James’ Trader’s Tip: Buy Strength, Not Hope

  • The best trades often come from stocks already showing relative strength.

  • High-ranked stocks with strong fundamentals attract institutional demand.

  • The system is simple: sell weakness, buy strength, and follow the rules.

FRI 10/31: LGND – BUYING (2/3) @ $189.92

11:26 AM – Spotted LGND advancing from its 10 DMA during my morning screens. I’m continuously scanning for high-ranked, fundamentally sound stocks setting up in bullish technical phases, and this one fit the criteria perfectly.

Shares moved higher from the 10 DMA with a strong increase in volume, confirming fresh institutional interest. By the close Friday, volume had surged to more than twice the normal daily rate as the stock finished at a new all-time high — a powerful sign of strength and technical control.

ULTRA Trader’s Tip: Buying From the 10 DMA with Volume

  • The 10-day moving average is the heartbeat of short-term momentum.

  • When a stock advances from this line with conviction and strong volume, it often signals fresh institutional demand.

  • Buying near the 10 DMA keeps risk tight and rewards disciplined entries.
