It’s Tim Sykes here.

After Trump won the presidency on the night of November 5, the stock market at large pushed to new all-time highs.

Trump’s own stock, Trump Media & Technology Group Corp. (NASDAQ: DJT) spiked 30% the next morning.

There’s no doubt about it … The market is reacting well to Trump’s presidency.

And the sentiment is causing massive profit opportunities among individual stocks.

I’m not talking about DJT

On November 27 during premarket hours, Unusual Machines Inc. (AMEX: UMAC) announced that Donald Trump Jr. would join the company as an advisor.

Celebrity advisors can act as huge catalysts for stock spikes.

Especially when that celebrity is closely related to the commander in chief of the U.S. armed forces, and the stock in question represents a drone company …

UMAC was already on a bullish trajectory before the Trump news came out. But the premarket announcement sent it parabolic!

Every student in the chat should have banked off of this play!

I sent a trade alert at 9:36 A.M. Eastern, and a few minutes later the price action followed my plan to a T!

Take a look at the post on X below with details:

In today’s blog post I’ll show you this setup overlaid on the chart.

UMAC has already spiked 510%* since November 6.

More Breaking News

And it spiked 110%* the day it announced the Trump news.

But we have to think realistically about these plays. There’s no way that I could catch all 510% of this run. I’m not even trying to catch 110%.

My goal is to recognize common price action and take the meat of the move.

The position that I alerted on UMAC yesterday, it offered a 27% return.

That’s perfect!

Most investors would be ecstatic with a yearly return of 27%. My students and I can find 27% in a matter of minutes …

Will UMAC push higher from here? Will it fall lower? Will it consolidate?

I don’t know.

I don’t predict the price action, I react to it. 

UMAC will likely show us another opportunity to profit, the price is still up. But I can’t predict which pattern it will follow.

Here’s how it played out on November 27 …

The available research on day trading suggests that most active traders lose money. Fees and overtrading are major contributors to these losses.

A 2000 study called “Trading is Hazardous to Your Wealth: The Common Stock Investment Performance of Individual Investors” evaluated 66,465 U.S. households that held stocks from 1991 to 1996. The households that traded most averaged an 11.4% annual return during a period where the overall market gained 17.9%. These lower returns were attributed to overconfidence.

A 2014 paper (revised 2019) titled “Learning Fast or Slow?” analyzed the complete transaction history of the Taiwan Stock Exchange between 1992 and 2006. It looked at the ongoing performance of day traders in this sample, and found that 97% of day traders can expect to lose money from trading, and more than 90% of all day trading volume can be traced to investors who predictably lose money. Additionally, it tied the behavior of gamblers and drivers who get more speeding tickets to overtrading, and cited studies showing that legalized gambling has an inverse effect on trading volume.

A 2019 research study (revised 2020) called “Day Trading for a Living?” observed 19,646 Brazilian futures contract traders who started day trading from 2013 to 2015, and recorded two years of their trading activity. The study authors found that 97% of traders with more than 300 days actively trading lost money, and only 1.1% earned more than the Brazilian minimum wage ($16 USD per day). They hypothesized that the greater returns shown in previous studies did not differentiate between frequent day traders and those who traded rarely, and that more frequent trading activity decreases the chance of profitability.

These studies show the wide variance of the available data on day trading profitability. One thing that seems clear from the research is that most day traders lose money .
