In this video, you were going to be learning about the top three stocks for this week in April 2020. But Charlie No one can predict the market. How can you save theirs top stocks this week? It's just not true. Well, it's not our job to predict the market, it's our job to find opportunities and then take advantage of said opportunities.

But folks, you do not have to take my word for it. Take last week's picks for example. We announced Gilead on last Sunday's Top Stocks video because it had a pattern of over selling and over buying and this is the important part was largely susceptible to news catalysts due to being in trial for their drug for the beer book then upon market open Monday it had some serious price strength running up several dollars. But of course the most notable run was after Gilead had announced that their drug was showing signs of effectively treating beer bug patients.

But folks, while this was a pic from last weekend, there was no way that we could have possibly known that this drug would have worked right. How would we have known that this was going to come out? But you see, the key isn't knowing what's going to happen into the future. We aren't magical garden gnomes. the key is understanding what opportunities are presenting themselves, what companies are working on drugs, and then hey, well, let's track that and that's really what these videos are for.

Our next pick was you are GM This is because you are GN Was due for an FDA approval at the end of this week and we announced the you are GN what it was here and since folks were anticipating the approval, it ran up here. and so when the actual approval came out, it got beat down due to pre factoring in. This is of course why you need to be playing the pre anticipatory run and the post news but not actually holding through the news because if you're holed into the news, you're susceptible to risk like this. If it gets beaten down, we don't know how the news is going to be taken, so that's why you play the pre anticipation and the news separately.

But in any case, since every reaction is an overreaction, it then ran up again. It finished at 23:00 9:00 on the week after we announced it at 1774. But the judge of a good opportunity is not whether it finished higher than the price that I announced it at, but rather whether or not you'd be able to catch the moves. And lastly, last week we talked about you Co and S Co So you Co goes up when oil goes up.

skill goes up when oil goes down. So if you want a short oil, ESCO is the way to go and the opposite is you kill. But we introduced these because of the oil crisis and it's quite an important pair to know with all that's going on in oil right now. And likewise, ESCO ran up the entire week.

However, there wasn't much in terms of clean runs. there was this run hither. But I'll be the first to tell you that this pic ended up not being spoiled brat material and we trade like spoiled brats. But anyways, folks, the point of these videos is to present you with opportunities that you can then go and take advantage of.

It's like presenting a battlefield so you can go out, plan and figure out how to go into battle and then take the spoils. But the idea that you can come in randomly off the street and just buy these stocks. That's a bunch of Hubba Bubba. Folks, it's a bunch of Hubba Bubba.

You always. You always need to understand what actually motivates a stock to move. what is it that's actually causing the price to go up and what are the signs that we could trade off of. And moreover, you also need to understand how to manage your risk.

You can't just randomly buy in and then say hey, Well, I guess this will just work. No, you need to understand how to protect your downside. One of the ways is by buying into confirmation and out validation. but there's more to it than that and we'll talk a little bit about the strategies in this video.

Also, I want to alert everybody to the fact that starting now, Zip Trader will have a ravish in place. Order ravish in place means that you need to sit there and hit that ravishing like button. That way you can protect yourself from too much ravishing. This okay and quick plug for folks who are looking to grow their account and forge their skill set.

We are continuing our $50 off offer on Zip Trader. You all you have to do is type in coupon code stay home 20 20 at checkout and it'll give you that $50 off. But make sure to look over what we offer on Zip treated you to determine whether or not it is a good fit for you. Okay so to start.

ABT Now a Bt is one of the beer bug plays that was running up massively. We actually talked about this one back on March 29th when they launched their five-minute virus test and this had a huge reaction. But since then ABT has consistently been running up day after day after day. But folks, I'm cheap I'm a cheap dog I Don't like to pay full price for stocks.

This is so high up it gives me altitude sickness I Want to puke? We want to buy stocks when they are a good deal. When people tell me that you should buy a stock because it's fifty percent up when I say is that your stupid There is nothing about this setup that screams good deal to me. In fact, I'd love to see a dip this week so that we can play off an overreaction correction. But let me make an argument for why we're still going to see some solvent upward opportunities in this.

Okay, so Number One: Because of their five minute test and other equipment, it continues to be a big player and it's actually increasingly large in terms of that's running in the beer Bug race. And it's on the testing side, so it's a lot easier to make money on the testing side as it is on the vaccine side because if you're on the vaccine side, well, you don't know who's going to win, but on the testing side, as long as you have a good and working test, you're going to make funny. Number Two: It continues to rack up tons and tons of positive media publicity. So the media is the biggest hyping factor of stocks and really anything of that nature.

But it doesn't really matter whether or not companies deserve the coverage and Abt might actually deserve the coverage. But it doesn't really matter because the Sheep cannot resist buying into what the analysts, what the media, and what the overall sentiment is in terms of what they're watching and reading. the Sheep love being told what to do. That's why they're sheep.

So positive media coverage is something they eat up. So number three is actually related to the fundamentals. So the earnings for this company are up, but they are no longer committing to giving guidance. so just the back step.

The second guidance is when companies give shareholders a peak as to what they think they're going to be earning for the next quarter. but without guidance, we have a delay in the reaction because usually when a company gives a high level of guidance, they're saying oh, we're gonna have five times the earnings next quarter right Then all the investors pile in and they run up the share price. However, if a company doesn't report guidance, that means that it's all left to speculation. And when there's speculation, that means that any indication of positive earnings is going to be factored in throughout the entire quarter.

So every time we see a positive news article, that means we're going to have a much larger reaction and that goes both ways, both in terms of positive and negative. But the last point that I want to make is that we aren't really trading that much harder than we were pre. Beer Bug. This point Heather Abbott wasn't even being covered in the news.

They had normal operations and there was no Beer Bug crisis. But at this point at the Beer Bug crisis, Abbott is coming out as a major player. Their earnings are increasing, their sales are up, and there's a ton of speculation as to how or they can grow with this new test. And in the world of trading, do you think that the price is driven by the fundamentals, how much they're making? You know how good the company's doing? No, it's driven by speculation Fact: If you compare this one to some of the other speculative beer bug plays that we've seen, this one really hasn't moved much, but it still has some serious potential and actual in the moment, fundamental power be compared to where we were trading that just a few months ago.

Pre-crisis we're only trading about seven dollars more. The only reason that this move upward looks so drastic is because it came after a massive crash where investors felt that Abbott would be worthless during a recession and they almost immediately reprove and wrong. So sell off or no sell off. it's pretty hard to argue that Abbott won't have some great opportunities going into this week.

Okay, so this next one is going to get me some criticism. and if you're faint of heart or you have some sort of problem where you get faint tea, then you may want to watch another video. But X s PA Yes, X s PA Folks I know it's a penny stock, but Charlie I Watched these videos with my children. How can you make such dangerous picks? Well lock your kids in their rooms and throw away the keys because things are about to get dangerous.

In all seriousness, excess PA has actually been quite a great play this month. This is a pure bug play that has proved for the last 20 days. Do you have Insane Spike ability? And we Love spike ability? Mic ability just means that we have reactions to trade off of we have a news event and then BOOM a reaction to the news event. That means that we can literally just play off the news event.

This is also one that shouldn't be unfamiliar to a lot of you because we talked about this at the beginning of April in our Caught Penny Stocks video and it was trading at about half the price back then. but it's provided some great opportunities up until now and again. The reason that this play is so powerful is because it hasn't established pattern, ever reacting over and over again, two huge events and then well selling off. So being able to know this ahead of time and take advantage of these opportunities is key because in hindsight, we can look back and say oh well, it has a pattern.

but if we know that it has a pattern of reacting and having spiked ability, we can go into the future and when we have another news event, we can trade it. By the way folks, if you are having a hard time keeping up to date with all these opportunities, you should really feel sad. I Want you to feel sad, feel sad? Are you feeling sad? Well now you can cheer up because we have Zip Trader Circle Zip Trader Circle is where we post all of our nightly watch lists and we post them all every single night. By the nature of being nightly, so you can keep up to date with all of our picks.

Of course, while the Facebook group is free and the nightly watch lists are free, these aren't handouts. these are battlefields. I point out battlefields for you to go into battle, but you have to prepare for battle for them to be one anyways. I'll put the link in the description below.

Ok, next Ba So Ba was one of the worst hit in the beer bug crisis and and it's also been one of the worst in terms of recovering from the original crash. If you compare it to the overall market, it's actually pretty pretty pathetic. And that makes sense if you can't operate your factories. If you can't build planes, if you can't generate any revenue whatsoever, your thoughts going to get beat down.

and now they're starting to get back to work with operations back on. That means they are back building for the future. That's actual action instead of mere speculation. Tons of time.

We just get speculation. But when we get actual action, that means that not only do we have the speculation, but we have action to back it up. I'm not saying this can get back to where it was anytime soon, but I am saying that this adjustment with the overall market shows there's a lot more potential here. and of course positive news coverage.

with factories getting back to work and perceived strength is going to be portrayed throughout the media which can then go and push more sheep investors into the into the company. But as always guesses and predictions do nothing for us. as traders, it's all about trading the actual setup in the actual price action. If this week nothing happens in Ba, why would you take a position just because you think something's going to happen? No, what you do is you make a hypothesis.

Hey, this is probably going to do well because of all the media coverage in Ba talking about their factories and the fact that they're reopening their factories and getting new contracts. And then you wait to see if the stock market cares. The stock market shows that it cares by having its price run up and then you buy any conformation. Okay, and lastly, a bonus.

So a lot of people have been asking me how it is that I actually go and trade the overall biopharma sector and the lab sector as a whole. Well, my favorite way to do that traditionally is Lab You and Lab D. Now lab You runs up partially with the market, but it's also made up of many influential within the sector. Lab you ran up massively on Thursday with the overall market.

But here's the kicker. It provided a delayed run that allows you to buy any conformation and out at validation. One of my biggest things are clean runs. We want clean runs that we could protect our downside while also taking advantage of the upside.

Notice how stacking our deprecating factors also helped, because at validation, we're also overbought. The key with inverse pairs like LabVIEW and Lab D is to find opportunities that are quite volatile, but also have clean running so that we can take advantage of not just the volatility, but also the clean patterns. And when LabVIEW goes down, we can play Lab D So that way you're not Direction dependent on just one. If you're just saying oh, I think lab, he's gonna go up Okay, well, what if it goes down, Are you just gonna sit out of the market? No, you can play Lab D If it has the correct setup, remember buying into Lab D is essentially like shorting or betting against LabVIEW Great opportunities for playing both sides Anyways, folks.
