Anna’s strategy focuses on shorting small caps and penny stocks, waiting for bullish momentum to exhaust at strong resistance levels, and using daily chart analysis with intraday Level II data to confirm liquidity and gauge market sentiment, targeting high-quality setups and holding them for a day or longer based on the stock’s potential drop and float size.
Two years ago, she developed an interest in investments and began day trading during her maternity leave. Finding day trading too emotionally taxing, Anna switched to swing trading and gradually adopted a more sustainable approach, ensuring she didn’t risk more than she could handle.
Tip 1
Finding the right stocks
Find very strong resistance levels and if a penny stock is up 100%, on the chart you can see where the huge part of liquidity is. When the stock is reaching it, I try to check what’ll happen next. It's a more internal feeling, like an educated intuition. It's very important to cut mistakes soon, and then you will get another chance
Tip 2
To swing or day trade small caps
“I decide if it should be a day trade or a swing trade based on how far the stock is right now. If it's a penny stock up 100-200%, it can be just a day trade. If it's up 500-1,000%, it has a big room to fall, so I can open a swing position. I need to be careful with float; if it's too small, I don't keep it until the second day because it's too dangerous.
