Long

BATS:HRTX   Heron Therapeutics, Inc.
HRTX has been suggested by various trading websites as a potentially explosive penny biotech

stock for 2024. It has experienced excellent price actions since an earnings beat in November.

It beat the estimates; that is to say it burned about half as much cash as the analysts estimated

the it would. Today it pumped 11%. Relevant articles can be found compiled on the Yahoo

Finance page linked here.

The chart is 120 minutes. A alpha trend indicator is shown and the supertrend since the

November earnings is upward. An AI Lorentzian indicator is added with a 2000 candle lookback

to generate buy and sell signals. It calculated a 59% win on 83 trades over those 2000 candles

two hours each; this amounts to about 2000 x 2 / 6 hrs per session or more than 600 trading

days = 2 1/2 years.

Also supporting an entry at this time is the faster (45 min) RSI line rising over the 50 level

while the slower ( 240 minutes in red) RSI line has been over the 50 level since those earnings.

The ADX indicator had a DI- and DI + flip with a mini pullback to close out last week's trading

( profit taking).

The volatility indicator also showed that dip with selling volatility greater than buying which

has now flipped.

Given that price has went 5X in 2 months , there is a possibility HRTX is overbought.

Analysts seem to think otherwise.

I will take a stock position here and anticipate holding the position into the next earnings.

For trade management I will take partials of 5 % each at the high of day for ten days going

into earnings and hold the remaining 50% through the earnings. In the meanwhile I will review

the trade if the machine-learning alo indicator generates either a buy or sell signal.

For those lacking the risk tolerance for money-losing biotechnology penny stocks with high

potential but are aware that biotechnology is expected to be "outperforming" in 2024,

XBI and LABU are ETFs with risk-mitigation in the form of a diverse portfolio from the sector.
Trade active:
Nice pop today. Taking down 10% of the position. Earnings are coming excepting increased volatility. Likey Thursday a down day and Friday back up and moving.
Will take more then,
