Jul 20, 2026: Advanced Biomed led a +$284 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 ADVB

I worked ADVB (Advanced Biomed), in around $6.40 and out around $6.71 across 2 prints on 1,000 shares, for a +$315 win.

Nothing heroic here, and that's the point. Take the move, book it, move on.

SHPH: where it went wrong

I worked SHPH (Shuttle Pharmaceuticals), in around $3.62 and out around $3.53 across 22 prints on 1,000 shares, for a -$87 hit.

SKHU did the work

I worked SKHU (ProShares Ultra SK Hynix) — the 2x leveraged fund that tracks SK Hynix. I was in around $17.98 and out around $18.11 across 3 prints on 400 shares, for a +$51 win. Read: why a 2x fund can lose money even when your direction is right →

Also on the tape

Smaller pieces that netted into the day: SPCH +$5, BXBL +$0.

Add it up and it was a +$284 day. That puts my running total for this stretch at +$396. Tomorrow I reset and run it back. Read: what 890 trades looked like once I reconstructed the statement →
