I just look at charts. But there are a lot of scans you can use. I have a proprietary search I use on TOS, but it still takes time to verify on the charts. Some decent uptrending stocks now that appear to be in a short term downtrend: (not necessarily a 'buy' yet) SB, ABUS, TROX, MSTR, ZETA, IPW. DELL is one I entered yesterday with a put credit spread for July exp. But XLC and XLI are 2 very liquid ETF's in a solid uptrend as well. One way to find uptrends (on TOS platform) is to use your favorite indicator, it could be a moving average or a cloud, or a lower oscillator. Make sure it has been in buy mode for a time length of your choosing. I've been using 30 days, but it's up to you. That should give you a reasonably decent set of uptrending stocks. Lately I've been using a linear regression routine that measures the validity of the trend as well as extrapolated performance. It is extremely taxing on the TOS system and is way too complicated for scans. But it's fairly quick to find uptrending stocks near a 1 std deviation low that have a high r-squared value. I'd take that over falling knives any day. Generally, not always, intraday volume is a tell on when there is strong interest in stock. DELL had that going for it yesterday. It doesn't always work....I bought LFMD as well and am a tad under water.
Out of curiosity, I looked at some of this "quality DD" we have been subjected to "non-stop" as you put it. TROX was a massive L. ULTA was probably the worst blowout you could have picked. How did shorting Zillow work out for you at the bottom in 2020? GOEV? Great call there bro. You posted some random "hold the line" ape shit like SPCE (your 1/29/21 $55C ... ouch man) and getting long AMC (quaint of you). Brought VFF at $18 (another P&D). Called a gamma squeeze on a SPAC (FAZE) that went nowhere - I'm assuming you didn't exit on dumb money or we would have heard about it. Also, this isn't a new complaint. Your first post on WSB was 5 years ago and people were accusing you of pumping illiquid trash then ... weird.
Couldn't find any decent sodium miners. TROX?
Hey OP, this is very generous of you and I’m eager to see what you’ve been able to develop. If you’d be willing, I have three stocks in mind that I own. Learning more about them in this way is something I’d appreciate. Those stocks are TROX, TECK, and RF. I certainly don’t expect all three! They are a chemical industrial company, mining, and bank, respectively.
It seems that it's no so rare, just this month $FCCO, $III, $TROX had Purchases and Sales transactions in the same filing. All of them bough more that they sold tho. Look: [FCCO](https://insiderpeek.com/?q=FCCO) | [III](https://insiderpeek.com/?q=III) | [TROX](https://insiderpeek.com/?q=TROX)
I should've focused more on TROX than titanium as a whole, I was just writing stream-of-consciousness, and initally was going to give a handful of tickers, but landed on those two. TROX had a bunch of reasons to bounce, titanium going up was just one of them
TROX Tronox Holdings | Total Debt (MRQ) : 2.68B Is this right? Maybe it explains why SP is going down
That's one con against them. ATI does more of the sexy stuff. But TROX just produces so much titanium, and is currently in such an unwarranted freefall, that any titanium news could catalyze it.
It's worth mentioning that $TROX was also offered a buyout at $27/share in September of 2021, which would have been a market cap of 4.3 billion
Oh! I wish they had the actual dates on these old posts. Was doing a bit of research here to assess whether TROX was a good investment for future space exploration.
No companies make this list incase you're wondering. The final ticker was TROX before I got to Debt / Equity
Really depends on the stock, I bought Transocean (RIG) a very long time ago at somewhere around $70 and held way too long (finally dumped it at a little over $5). It's even less than that now. I bought Tronox (TROX) in 2013 at $22.84 and never bothered selling even when it slipped down to around $4. Now it's back up to over $24.50 and there are rumors of a buyout offer of approximately $27. Sometimes you win, other times you lose money with friends!
**CLF** \- I bought in the mid $3 range, and I have zero interest in selling before they announce their first dividends in two or three years. If they get stupid and do nothing return the money to shareholders with yuge divs (like 4%+), I'm a seller. If they play it smart and accumulate cash while offering a sensible dividend (like 1%), then I'll stick around at least until $125 a share. **GLNCY** \- Got in on Glencore at a bit about $3 a share. Have no plans of departing . . . like ever. **TROX** \- Same as Glencore, but with a big tie-in with solar and other alternative energy. Titanium dioxide play with fingers in other things. **PLTR** \- Evil always wins because good is dumb. I like Thiel, and I lerv how far in bed with DoD this company is. **RKLB** \- With rocket launch facilities in NZ and eventually in the US, RKLB will have the most rockets going to the most orbits. Massive debt load, though. Probably the riskiest play of the 5. I have shares of all five. Give me companies that are adding value somewhere in the chain. I like all 5 of these for that reason among others.
It jumped already, won't run to the buyout value until TROX responds. Might be a good strangle play. Might tank again if they reject.
TROX $27 buyout offer from Apollo
TROX offer $27 buyout of the company currently at $23 https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2021-09-13/u-k-s-tronox-jumps-most-in-17-months-on-report-of-apollo-offer
It’s supposedly being bought out by Apollo global and shares jumped today. Ticker TROX
Looking to get in on the TROX arbitrage opportunity. Priced at $23 a share right now and they had an offer to be bought for $27 a share today.
Ye, I think I fucked up the expiry though, didn't realize TROX hadn't responded. Still upside several months out though.
Did anyone else buy into TROX today with the news of them possibly being bought out?
TROX with a 13% upside on buyout price still. 50% upside on November 24c.
TROX is a good chemical company to invest in. They produce titanium dioxide which is used in a pigment for paint and products.
TROX. Enormous growth that keeps on giving.
I wanted to talk about JOAN on here but it's below market cap of rules. TROX has done well for me but it's far from beaten down rn
Well, maybe, but where is the money? Right now things seem very expensive but I haven't gotten a raise recently. My kid is almost finished building a wooden feed bin for a final project in Ag class. A darn 2x4 was over $7 which is crazy! I paid up for ten of them, but I'm putting off buying wood for some other projects I wanted to do because I'm hoping that it's temporary. That's plausible since I've read about mills being shutdown until recently and shipping backlogs, but it could be permanent and I'll either have to pay more or abandon my plans. Thats what I was trying to say with my example, if I'm trying to sell something that people don't need, and I raise the price, i might make fewer sales and my overall profit would go down. Yes, if everyone in my neighborhood gets a raise then I could raise my price also, but until that happens I'd be the one hurting. Even if everyone gets a raise, if my input costs keep going up, I'm in the same spot since my ability to raise the price would be dependent on my neighbors getting more raises. As far as your second point, I'm not selling my stocks, but I try to maintain a balanced portfolio with one or more holdings in different sectors. Usually i have a few going down, but overall the entire portfolio going up. Embarrassingly I'm often surprised by which particular ones go which direction. I've owned TROX since 2013 and foolishly thought of it as dead money. It was a huge loss but I couldn't find a better option for a cyclical so I kept it BUT I DIDN'T BUY MORE! I should have, that was my plan, to maintain about the same dollar amount in each area, and it's up over 300% in the last year. If I had executed my plan I'd have been much better off. My two tech stocks (QCOM and CHKP) are not doing as well as I expected. Luckily there i sold some of my QCOM after it jumped last year and became too big a percentage of my holdings (stuck to my plan). The government says that inflation is temporary, and maybe it is, I don't know, but I hope to have more gains then loses either way. Good luck!
My condolences. Unfortunately, good advice gets down voted to invisible and ridiculed around here. Having a diversified portfolio helps a lot, my biggest loser from 2013 has been my biggest winner this year (TROX). Unfortunately I left it for dead and didn't reballance into it. If you don't want to spend a lot of effort finding good companies in different areas and periodically reballancing, just by a low cost index fund and they do it for you. Another way is to dump your losers and let your winners run. Ignore the price you paid for the stock, that's the most meaningless thing and it would benefit humanity if that number was hard to find. The important thing, is it going to go up from the price today? People sell something that still has a lot of upside just because they are up some arbitrary amount or hold something going down because they don't want to "sell for a loss " and instead take an even bigger loss. Again, if you're holding a diversified portfolio then you would sometimes sell a portion of your winners and buy your low priced losers to keep roughly the same dollar amount in each sector. Example, I sold 2/3 of QCOM after it shot up big in February and put that money into beaten down energy and materials. I didn't get rid of all my QCOM, but it was back to 1/15th of my total dollar amount.
My biggest positions are HMC, ASX, TROX, APAM and GTN
TROX ALL (not really small cap but definitely undervalued) SLM
Depends on how much of each, but from what you wrote it looks tech heavy (how much/many other tech ETFs). You might consider diversification so if tech goes under performs or goes down your not seeing an entirely red screen. It's really hard to predict what's going to be the hot sector at any given time. For a while it was energy, sometimes financials, other times cyclical (example, I've had 300 shares of TROX for years and had given up hope but then it's gone from $8 to $20 in under six months).
CC looks interesting. TROX is a similar one I came across today that’s intrigued me - I just don’t know much about titanium dioxide pigments.
Randomly bought TROX calls for their earnings no clue what they do but making money.
I don't expect the sell off to end soon, but I am going to keep buying and holding stocks that produce decent revenues with decent P/E ratios. Yesterday I started positions in TROX and GTN. I also like what I see so far looking at CSPR (Casper). They have been edging toward profitability and their mattresses are highly rated. I'm about to order one myself.
I cashed out and moved everything into GME. It had nothing to do with TROX. I just believed I would make more money off of GME.
Closed positions above - currently balls deep in PLTR, APPS, NIO, FUBO, TROX, and some remaining GME shares
Hey. Sorry; missed this. YES. For copper, I love FCX. Have been buying 1-5mo calls since summer on dips and average a little under 100% returns each time on calls. They're the best. They're solid. I treat them like I used to treat gold (of which they mine a bit, but they're primary is copper). All you have to do is watch the chart (1mo/3mo/1yr) and buy cautious long-rage slightly OTM calls on the pullbacks. LONG. RANGE. NO WEEKLYS. NO MONTHLYS. FCX, man. Try it out. There are also higher-risk copper plays like BVS if you're looking for more aggressive/risky returns on copper. Copper has a very limited supply in the 8-10yr outlook; it takes that long to drill/get new mines up and running. And inflation is here to stay after we printed 40%+ of GDP. FCX is my "safe play." But dude check out my post on other commodities too in my profile. that's been printing wildly for me (except for TROX)
HMC, LPL, TROX. They gave me back fantastic returns already and only gonna go up!
Aw, thanks dude. 🙏 Seriously glad to help or glad that one of my ideas hit for you. They’re usually high risk/high reward, but I try to do it around positions with enough time to exit at -50% or hang till 200%. That’s great that you pulled a quick 100%. I’m gonna sit on most of this and see if we don’t inflate a little more as the stimmy checks go out. Bought more TROX today.
Oh, she’s been a-printin’ already. Need some TROX love; might add more short-term 22/23c 3/19. But should be a good March 18/19. Happy to let the apes destroy megacap and watch most spacs lose 20% while the little commodities and their inflation-friends get to work printing.
Because they’re incredibly sensitive to inflation, the dollar is tanking, and we’re nowhere near tapering. Inflation shows itself first in commodities. Services and retail with global supply chains can spread-out inflation over flexible networks of labor and manufacturers—increased prices don’t show up there first. As the dollar continues to weaken, things which can’t simply be cloned or outsourced become more scare—driving up the price. Commodities and chem manufacturers can’t easily be copied and not everyone can just make more: and they’re all perfectly aligned to extract maximum profits from times when commodities are more expensive and enjoy increased demand—it’s what these companies are built for. So as oil, copper, nickel, tin, aluminum, and varied complex and inorganic chemicals ($TROX) become more expensive due to inflation, these companies start to print money. The more expensive the commodities get? The more they print. It’s what they’re made for. US Steel, for example, has survived doing this for well over 100 years. They’re stoked for inflation. So are my calls.
Buy $TROX $20c 3/19 on this dip. No need to thank me.
> $TROX. Got this for free from RH and it’s doing real good. Anyone have an opinion on if I should add more. I’m way too inexperienced to do DD on it. But from what i have read it looks solid. Not sure how much a mining company can grow tho My biggest advice: Drop robinhood.

Bought in on some $PLAN and $TROX 3/19c. We will see...
Currently PLTR, FSR, TROX, ADM, and CLOV. I’ll sell as many as I can and usually the closest expiration
