I bought FTEK at $2.20 thought I was doing well getting $3.90 in AH! :)

Got close to Top Tick on CIIC, missed the move on FTEK because I've been pairing down DPW.

For after hours I go small on junk like GEVO and ENG and keep scaling up, dumping ENG a $2.50 fails.

Trade 'em and work on strengthening our imaginations. I don't hold some of those overnight. For example, DPW I closed a few minutes ago. But you look back at how it opens the day after a day like this and any gains today could be gone tomorrow.

I am holding $JKS and $ROKU through the night.

This has been like 1999 only better I'll tell you what. Bet Dan Zanger could have turned another $11K into $10MM if he had put his mind to it.

Enjoy it while it lasts: Small cap rotation like this is usually end stage bull run. But this is rotation the likes of which I have not seen.

Nice call! Their rotating hard back to Opening and Materials, Chems,ect..
 
Original reason of my Journal was to demonstrate you don't need a $500k account to make money. Using a Piker size account my balance is up over $7500 today.

I follow volume and use a scanner for stocks under $15 with a min volume over 1000k because its so easy to get stuck in trash stocks. MOHO had millions of shares traded when I entered it same with DPW, FTEK, CIIC, ENG yesterday. If a stock is hitting a 52 week high there's added competition from all the trading rooms so please be safe chasing these.
 
How do you scan for the names? Feel free to ignore if it's your "secret recipe."

I'm sure @JesseJamesFinn1 will share what he uses to scan. I use a software called scanz ... you can get info at scanz.com.

Most brokers have free scanners and many of us scan for biggest % gainers, biggest gappers, etc.

Here is the current Top 10% Nasdaq gainers on Think or Swim which is free for TD Ameritrade customers.
