rsotc — Thu, 20 Aug 2026 18:26:26 +0000

The SPCX (SpaceX) short swing trade hit its second and final price target (T2) today for a quick 12% profit. Traders who covered the short and reversed long on the initial tag of the first price target (T1), then reversed back short on the subsequent bounce to the key 149ish resistance level, had the opportunity to capture as much as a 33% combined profit across those trades. Previous and updated 30-minute charts are shown below.

SPCX SpaceX Swing Trade Idea 8-7-26

rsotc — Fri, 07 Aug 2026 14:56:16 +0000

After milking the bulk of the largest rally since the post-IPO plunge on SPCX (SpaceX) with a near-perfect entry & exit for a quick 14% (or 18%, for those that rode into earnings & sold at the top of the T5 zone on the post-earnings pop), it’s time to run it the other way. Once again, this should be considered an aggressive trade, especially entering into a position on Friday, with two extra days of overnight risk.

SPCX daily Aug 7th

SPCX offers an objective short entry here at the bottom of the recent final (T5) price target zone on recent long trade (still resistance). The price targets for this short trade are T1 at 121.46 & T2 at 117.20 (basically, T3 & T2 from the recent long trade, along with the uptrend line off the recent lows, which comes in with T2 for this short trade). SPCX also has potential (unconfirmed) negative divergence on the 30-minute chart (same time frame we just traded the long bounce on). 30-minute chart below with the price targets for the short trade in yellow & a max. suggested stop of 132.88.

REMX Rare Earth ETF 2nd Price Target Hit 20% Profit

rsotc — Tue, 07 Jul 2026 15:57:44 +0000

The REMX (Rare Earth Metals ETF) Active Short Swing Trade idea has hit the second price target (T2) for a 20% profit.

REMX daily July 7th

As I hadn’t had time to communicate my preference that REMX will likely fall to that potential third target before any meaningful & lasting rally or reversal before today’s video (where I covered REMX right after receiving the price alert that T2 was hit), I am going to consider T2 the final price target & move REMX, with the previous posts associated with this trade, to the Completed Trades archives at this time. As always, feel free to bump me for additional updates for those holding out for additional gains and/or looking to reverse into a long position, if & when the time appears right.

PLTR Palantir Final Price Target Hit 50% Profit

rsotc — Fri, 26 Jun 2026 15:13:18 +0000

PLTR (Palantir Technologies Inc) has hit my final price target of the primary bull market uptrend line on the weekly time frame from the Nov 3rd post/video for a 50% drop/profit with an objective reversal/long entry here and/or any more pullbacks to that trendline with stops somewhat below on a weekly closing basis. However, based on the recent & still current sell signal/active short trade on QQQ, my preference would be to wait for another thrust down to a full tag of that 99ish price target which I shared on the daily charts back in November.

This link will start at the coverage of PLTR in the November 3rd Swing Trade Ideas video, where I stated my expectation that the stock would drop until first hitting my 127.87 (“128-ish”) weeekly chart target with a likely reaction “..park on there, or maybe rally..” for a bit (which the stock did, bouncing between that support & it’s 200-day MA’s, which I also stated in the video would likely be taken out & confirm a major trend change, when so). A couple of screenshots from that video, followed by the updated weekly chart below.

PLTR 11-3-25 video screenshot 1

PLTR 11-3-25 video screenshot 2

PLTR weekly June 26th

Zooming down to the daily time frame, here are the daily charts posted on that same day PLTR was trading at what proved to be its all-time high (Nov 3rd), with the masses just as bullish on this former crowd-favorite/going-to-the-moon stock as they are on the semis today, followed by the Nov 13th chart with the powerful sell signal of the primary uptrendline on the shorter, daily time frame taken out, along with the updated daily chart.

PLTR-daily-Nov-3rd

PLTR-daily-Nov-13th

PLTR daily June 26th

Bottom line: Those currently bullish on the stock market and/or PLTR can certainly make a case to go long PLTR anywhere from here and/or on any additional pullbacks to that primary uptrend line on the weekly chart and/or that 99ish support/target on the daily chart (which pretty much comes in with the weekly uptrend line.

As stated above, my preference is to hold off (before taking a long position) based on my current expectation of more downside in the stock market, especially the tech-heavy Nasdaq 100. At minimum, anyone who took this trade & is still short should consider lowering stops to protect profits, if holding out for more downside. Should the major indices (SPY & QQQ) drop much below my current final pullback targets of a backtest of the top of mid/late 2025 through early/mid 2026 sideways trading ranges & intersecting 200-day MA’s (T4 on the QQQ 60-minute chart), then PLTR will likely take out that primary uptrend line off the early 2023 lows on the weekly chart, falling to the next support levels/longer-term potential targets on the charts above.

SNWGF Snowline Gold Final Price Target Hit 25% Profit

rsotc — Wed, 24 Jun 2026 19:51:15 +0000

Wash. Rinse. Repeat: The SNWGF (Snowline Gold Corp) short swing trade has hit the top of the T2 (second price target) zone for a 25% profit, fresh on the heels of the previous short trade that hit the second & final price target for a quick 23% profit a few months ago, with a perfect exit/reversal from there. (previous chart from March 20th/final target hit, below).

SNWGF daily March 20th

The current trade was posted here in the April 30th Swing Trade Ideas, GDX, & Silver Analysis video just over a month after nailing the exit on that trade (this link will start at coverage of SNWGF) with a sell signal to come on a break below the primary (yellow) uptrend line.

As SNWGF has hit the top of the T2 price target zone with a reaction likely here & especially on a little more downside to the bottom of the zone & intersecting primary uptrend line, as that is even better/dual price & trendline support. With positive divergences building & the odds for a tradable bounce/reversal likely soon, I am removing T3 & T4 to make this the final price target at this time.

Depending on how the charts of gold, GDX, the US Dollar, & SNWGF develop forward, I may add SNWGF back as another short trade, ideally after a bounce off this target zone. For those looking to close the short & reverse to a long position here and/or down to the bottom of this T2 target/support zone & intersecting uptrend line, potential bounce targets are shown at the arrow breaks in the updated (second) chart below.
