1,129% Gain on Wall Street's Most Hated Stock - Here's How I Did It [Trade of the Day Logo] [View in browser]( [Image of a typewriter with the phrase 'Case Study' written]( ["Focus on patterns and setups, not news. That's how I scored 1,129% on a stock Wall Street hated."]( Nate Bear, Lead Technical Tactician, Monument Traders Alliance [Nate Bear] Wall Street firms command vast resources – billions in capital, cutting-edge technology, and armies of analysts with direct lines to corporate executives. Competing head-on with these giants is often a losing battle for individual traders. That's why I rarely trade on news alone. Instead, I've honed my focus on patterns and setups that level the playing field. Today, I'm pulling back the curtain on how I used this approach to score a staggering 1,129% return in just two days – on one of Wall Street's most despised stocks, no less. This trade not only beat the big firms at their own game but did so in a stock they were actively betting against. Ready to see how David can still triumph over Goliath in today's market? Let's dive in. Background: B. RILEY's Controversial Status B Riley Financial was one of the most contentious stocks on Wall Street, boasting a staggering short interest of approximately 75%. This high level of short interest made it a prime target for various short reports, with accusations of fraudulent activity swirling around the company, which still hold true today. Despite the controversy, I approached this trade from a purely technical perspective, focusing on what I do best: analyzing trading patterns and setups.

Understanding Short Interest and Its Impact Short interest represents the number of shares that have been sold short but not yet covered or closed out. In RILY's case, a 75% short interest is exceptionally high, indicating that 3 out of every 4 available shares were sold short. This creates a powder keg situation where any positive news can trigger a dramatic price increase as short sellers rush to cover their positions. The Power of Technical Analysis in Volatile Situations While fundamental analysis focuses on a company's financial health and business model, technical analysis examines price action and trading patterns. In highly shorted stocks like RILY, technical analysis can be particularly powerful as it helps identify potential breakout points and entry opportunities. The Trade: Timing and Execution On April 22, 2024, I made my move. I purchased options set to expire in just four days - the $22 calls for $0.65. This decision was based on my analysis of the stock's technicals and the potential for a significant move given the high short interest. The Unexpected Catalyst: Sometimes It's Better to Be Lucky Than Good [Daily Profits Live Alert for RILY]( As the saying goes, "It's better to be lucky than good." In this case, I was fortunate enough to be both. On April 24, 2024, just two days after entering the trade, RILY released an audited report. This report effectively cleared the company of any unusual or illegal behavior, acting as a powerful positive catalyst. The result? The stock exploded upward, triggering a massive short squeeze.
