Jul 13, 2026: Agenus led a +$275 day
Green day. I ran my usual pre-market playbook — small, cheap names that pop on the open — and for once the exits lined up with the entries.
Catching AGEN
I worked AGEN (Agenus), in around $5.29 and out around $5.67 across 11 prints on 800 shares, for a +$304 win.
Nothing heroic here, and that's the point. Take the move, book it, move on.
HODO: where it went wrong
I worked HODO (House of Doge), in around $1.26 and out around $1.32 across 2 prints on 608 shares, for a -$32 hit.
