Analyzing Smart Money in Trading
Lately, I've been focusing on smart money during
this crazy volatile
market. I wanna know what people who have a ton of
money are doing.
Are they buying things? Are they selling things?
Where are they deploying their cash? All that stuff.
And I'm using Finviz to do that. So today, I'm gonna be showing you guys another
tip, trick that I use on Finviz to see what the
smart money's
doing. Before we start though, guys, let's just take a moment to appreciate
this
Finviz home screen. I'm not even logged in.
So this is the free, free, extra free version.
We got the charts up top, top gainers, new high, unusual volume,
top losers, unusual volume, signals, wedge, channel,
double top, double bottom, news, all this good information.
So take advantage of Finviz, guys. It is a great tool.
I'm not even sponsored by them or anything.
I'm just telling you because I use it so often, and it is just an awesome
website for traders. All right, last thing before we get into it, like
this post. Just click the heart. It helps everybody, so just do it,
and let's get
into it. We're gonna start this one off the exact
same way that we did the last
one. You're gonna go up here. You're gonna click Insider tab on this top
bar. Whoop, there's the free version for you.
After you click Insider tab here, instead of going over here to Managers
or Funds,
you're gonna come over here to Top Ten Percent Owner Trading
Recent Week. So all the transactions in here have
been done by someone or something, an entity, that
owns ten percent of the stock of a company.
So these are people with a lot of money riding on these companies, and
these are the transactions from last week.
So these are recent. They've been buying, they've been selling, and it all happened
last week. I'm gonna go over here to Buy
Transactions.
I wanna see what dips are getting bought by people who own a
lot of the stock. The top one you can see is VSCO,
Victoria's
Secret. I'm gonna put that on my watchlist. It looks good.
It looks beaten down, and this company, who is a ten percent owner,
has been adding a shitload of shares. Look at all the shares they've been
adding.
Look at the value of those shares. Look at their total shares, and it
all happened last week. If you want to as well, you can go to Sell
Transactions, see if any of your stocks are on here,
or see if any of these line up
with a potential short or put opportunity.
Uh, but I prefer the buy transactions. I wanna see what these people are buying.
And the reason these are so important is because people who own that much of a
company, they have a little bit of access to some
information
that we little fish don't. They're probably getting whisperings
through the
grapevine of this might be coming for this company, or, "Hey, I know you're a big
owner. Don't tell anybody, but we got this coming around the corner."
And
they're like, "All right, I'm gonna buy some shares before that."
That's the sort
of stuff we're dealing with here. So use this to your advantage.
Uh, keep an eye on what these ten percent
owners are doing, buying,
selling. Um, and yeah, just, you know, use it to your advantage, like I said.
All right. Thank you guys for watching. Have a fantastic night.
