FWIW, what I'm about to post here is the most valuable information/lesson I can possibly share in terms of what I've learned in 20 years of playing the OTC, and this is what makes #otcset setups so damn special. If you get this, you'll appreciate why I now stay away from death spirals and don't consider them worth my time or capital. Literally any OTC stock can run hard for a day. Or a week. Or maybe even multiple weeks. No matter how strong the short term price action may be, it says absolutely positive nothing about the big picture. You know what's not common or even possible for most OTCs? Sustaining gains over time. It doesn't even have to be close to all of the gains, it just has to be some of the gains. The more gains sustained the better, but time is the killer of OTC gains in almost all cases historically. A strong rally, no matter how big or explosive, means absolutely nothing if you fast forward a week, month, year etc and all of those gains (and usually more) are gone. The system is rigged so hard against OTCs that it's historically been next to impossible to actually sustain gains without giving them all up in due time. I can not stress this enough. If an OTC runs 25 ticks in a week, great. But fast forward enough time, the odds are that all of those gains will be lost and then some. That's why the most bullish thing you can possibly look for, in terms of spotting actual long term buy/hold opportunities, are the rare examples where price gains (even just some) are sustained over time. So if that OTC which ran 25 ticks is able to even hold 5 - 10 ticks of those gains over the long run, you have something special brewing. It may not seem overly obvious, but that's the point. The masses are never actually intelligent about this sort of thing. They will always chase something hotter and more exciting, which is actually part (only part, not the main reason) of the problem in the first place. Retail loves to chase hot runners, which makes the MMs game VERY easy. They pump, get us to chase, then dump. There's your long term lower high and now all the chasers are future sellers into weakness/new lows. The point here is that strong price action in itself isn't what to look for. It's strong price action that's had time to reverse, correct and shake out tons of flippers and chasers, and STILL is managing to hold some of it's gains. Again, I can't stress this enough. Over 99% of OTCs will stay stuck in never ending downtrends of lower lows and lower highs, ie death spirals. That is the default status for OTCs and it's been that way for decades. Even just a very long sideways period is a huge step up from that. This is why the #otcset bunch is so stupidly bullish and easy to appreciate. Any OTC stock that is anywhere remotely close to it's 2021 peaks is so utterly bullish that almost no one can even see it because it's so atypical and rare, if not unheard of. It's such an uncanny difference than anything I've ever seen that I've literally decided to dedicate my entire trading account and this X account to posting about it. OTCs sustaining gains over the long term, even just a modest fraction of those gains, is unlike anything the OTC has ever seen on this scale. It's wild to me that more people haven't called this out already. It feels like a version of the Emperor's New Clothes where we're all looking at the same thing but so few seem to see the reality we're staring at. If I end up being wrong about this, unfollow me and mock me. I will deserve it. But I have no doubts about this. OTCs sustaining any sort of progress/pps gains over time has historically been so rare and impossible, thanks to a number of reasons, that what we're seeing now is what I truly believe to be a once in a lifetime phase for the OTC. One or two of them, sure, but a whole massive basket of them is CRAZY beyond the words I can find for it. The why behind it all is a whole other topic and almost certainly not happening for just one reason, but I'll tell you I strongly believe that inflation is playing a huge role as is Market Makers who have indiscriminately naked short sold virtually all OTCs for decades now, and now are essentially stuck as their plan has ALWAYS required these OTCs to go to zero over time (even if just effectively zero thanks to reverse splits and dilution). .000000000000001 is effectively zero. Look at the charts below for textbook examples of what I'm describing (but there are a bunch more). If even one of these 4 doesn't ultimately break their respective ceilings (blue line) and trigger at least one big pop (likely much more if given time and allowing for immense volatility), then I will profusely apologize and admit I was way to overconfident and didn't really know shit. But I'm not wrong here, the emperor is naked and you can't tell me otherwise.
