record breaking trader Dan zanger (in his days where he had less to invest) likes low float stocks, with huge earning suprizes (at least up 70% from previous yrsQ), and earnings acceleration in the last 2-3 Qs, that have previously moved on big volume. He reviews 1000-2000 charts a night, and says his favorite pattern is cup with handle where the breakout is after a very positive earnings announcement. he said that his big movers had earnings growth of 150-400%...

Since he went from 11,000 to 18 million in 18months, and then quickly to 40 million a couple years later, he has dropped the low float requirement to his search.

I started this portfolio to open discussion about low float stocks because starting topics on the forum confuses me as it seems to ask for "feedback"
He often uses full leverage trading the maximum amount on margin.

Note:while Dan Zanger prefers to be fully leveraged, he sets his stop loss usually only a small percentage below his initial trade. He prefers to be in AFTER earnings news, so he won't gap down quickly before he stops out. Although it appears to be balls out "no risk management" it is, because he manages his risk by the way he trades, and by his quick stops.


his last interview said aapl he bought at 85 and stopped out at 128, but he will likely

I'm putting this hear even though last week he said he stopped out of aaple at 128... I'm pretty sure he'll be loading up on more eventually after the technical analysis supports it.

terra nitrogen was on a tear all the way up near 100, and pulled back quite a bit to 77 in a couple of days. It has sinced made a double bottom and a bit of a handle and has just appeared to have broken out. EPS has been explosive

Earnings isn't quite the 70% but since the move on volume looks great, the current recent earnings per share is accelerating, and it's still strong earnings from that of a year ago (52%), and it looks like it's soon to break out of the base it is finishing forming.

Here's some potential Dan Zanger picks... I started this to open a discussion more so then to post the portfolio. Anyone have a place where they can screen for low float stocks, or quickly check the float on stocks by ticker?
