UAMY Recap: +13.2% Day Trade in a Single Session
Why We Bought
- On September 30, our automated bot qualified UAMY (United States Antimony Corporation) for all three day trading variants: Conservative, Moderate, and Aggressive. This qualification set up the trade for October 1.
- Insider conviction was a key driver, as UAMY's CEO purchased approximately $600K worth of stock, signaling confidence in the company's future.
- The company announced a $245M IDIQ contract with the U.S. Defense Logistics Agency to supply antimony metal ingots for the National Defense Stockpile.
- UAMY secured international supply agreements in Bolivia, Chad, Canada, and Australia, further strengthening its global positioning.
- Since August, UAMY rallied from $3.20 to $8.16 before pulling back, but it remained about 18 percent above its 30-day simple moving average, showing the broader uptrend was still intact.
- The stock's daily trading volume exceeded system thresholds, confirming liquidity. High volatility and reactiveness to news also made it an ideal candidate for short-term day trading.
- Together, these conditions, along with 11 additional proprietary filters being met, created a high probability one-day setup.
Trade Plan Sent to Clients
- Buy UAMY at the market open on October 1.
- Sell at the market close unless the stop loss was triggered.
- Stop loss levels were set at minus 7.5 percent for the Conservative and Moderate strategies, and minus 12 percent for the Aggressive strategy.
Trade Result
- The stock opened at $6.21 on October 1. Momentum accelerated early in the session as insider conviction, contract news, and recent uptrend attracted both institutional and retail interest.
- Short covering added further upside pressure throughout the day.
- By the close, UAMY finished at $7.44, resulting in a gain of 13.2 percent in a single trading session.
- Because all three day trading strategies aligned on this setup, clients across Conservative, Moderate, and Aggressive variants were able to participate.

Conclusion
This trade highlights the effectiveness of the Insider Buying Day Trading Strategy. Insider conviction, combined with a strong contract catalyst, high momentum, and liquidity alignment across multiple filters, produced a decisive intraday move. While most trades result in smaller single digit wins or losses, the strategy is designed to capture moments like UAMY, where insider activity and market conditions create significant short-term opportunities.
Patience and consistency are key. The majority of days may feel uneventful, but staying disciplined ensures we are positioned for the rare setups that deliver the strongest results.
