Grandmaster-OBI’s SDOT alerts inside the Making Easy Money Discor are drawing major attention after SDOT reportedly surged from $3.40 to $51.40, creating one of the month’s biggest retail trading stories.

Good morning taking care of CT. So this will be short and simple. I did have a good chat with AI yesterday GOOGL aka Gemini. We discussed post pandemic valuations. I included some of these screen shots on X. I have 100 shares of PRGS at 50.25 and 100 at 56.50. I have been stuck about a year. I wad doing a deep dive into earnings. I read the report, checked the financials and then also discussed with GOOGL AI. We are in conclusion with what I already know. That the market has thrown tech/software in the dog house, unless you are chips/memory. Stuff like NOW CRM ADBE META MSFT GOOGL AAPL all PE ratios below 25. Many more! These names in 2020/2021 were trading at 30-50x. Many of these are now below 20x! The current SP500 is trading near 23x… Wild times! So many of the top tier name brands are trading below the typical SP500 stock! PRGS PE ratio is 5…

The growth in sales was just 7%. The earnings growth year over year was 16%. [For comparison the current SP500 SPY VOO is growing sales at 11% and earnings about 16% with a 23x] Of course the debt levels on PRGS aren’t great. This is because they grew sales/earnings thru acquiring not organically, which is fine, make use of your money. So is the market giving this a 5x PE because of debt, software/tech or both! As I have kept saying of late, even a private good company sells at 5-10x earnings. It is better to be public because you can access cash from retail, use stock compensation for talent, issue bonds/convert, and you need to be public to do many of these.

So the key with PRGS report is:

They paid down 50 million of their now 1.3 billion in debt Q2 of 2026. They paid 60 million in Q1. They are modeling to pay down an additional 110 million. [220 million total]. Why this matters? They pay about 6% on their debt [not bad] but very costly to EPS and operations. Interest expense was 16 million in Q1 of 2026 and 15 million in Q2. They have just over 40 million shares, so the more they can cut those costs, the immediate boost to earnings!

Furthermore, They did a 35 million buyback in Q2 [Cutting down shares, adding to demand at the auction, cutting down supply available]. They have purchased 55 million back the first 6 months. They are modeling another near 75 million for the rest of the year.

They are able to do this because they are modeling about 283 million of free cash flow for the year. They revised up this number, they are modeling earnings of near 6.21. [The track record the last 4 quarters have been good]

For these reasons I am okay with giving PRGS a 10x multiple or about 65.

 

I did bid  19 on CNXC. The low was 19.12. It was in the 18s pre market, oh well! Wow KLAR ! I was trading this a ton 13-17, less than 30 days ago even.

I made a lot of moves yesterday.

I sold 100 shares of NVDA from 194 to 199

I traded 250 shares of FISV from 47.25 to 48.50

I traded 250 shares of Z from 30 to 31.05

I am in 100 shares of CRM 155 [Wu hoo on fire now! Maybe 165-170 sell?]

I am in 250 shares of PYPL 42.50 [I also have 100 at 54.50 and 59.50, sadly]

 

Good luck!

Good morning everyone. I was in CT for most of the day. Getting quite a bit done, also trying to button up and get a clear to close on my 3 property deal. This is my first investment property deal with TD Bank, I hope the future isn’t anywhere near as tough. I am doing so because they should have a ton of money for when I build. If you walk into a TD or call them, tell them you would like to buy an investment property, out of state, where the property is owned by an LLC, they will tell you they cant help. [Same as JP Morgan, Wells Fargo, Bank of America, almost all major lenders, they have much harder compliance, and regulations] I am doing so because when I want to build and I use a mortgage lender, or hard money we are talking about 8-10% interest rates… and these structures are going to be millions! Big banks don’t like construction loans! So I am doing this deal to get a relationship. I want into my local TD bank many times a month, mainly to get notaries… Sadly I sue a lot of tenants and do a lot of evictions. Keep in mind I have 110 units, it happens. The market is my bread and butter but as I have said, the risk reward here is no good! I rather keep growing my real estate portfolio.

Next week I hope to close a 3 property - 11 unit deal

2 weeks a 2 family deal. [I am only buying this is as its next door to a 4 family and 3 family I already own, I do not go out and look for 2 or 3 family deals]

My areas do not have big buildings for sale, they are quiet and less populated areas.

 

The risk reward on CNCX ? I have traded it recently a couple of times. I am stuck in 2 blocks of PRGS [50.25 and 56.50]. The 2 are software tech companies that did grow by acquiring. It is very hard, in general to tell how the MA was because it usually takes years [CELH was immediate with Alani] So the PE on CNCX is actually under 2 with todays fall, 25% at the moment] I used AI to dig deep. It took me just 15 mins as opposed to 90-120 when I do the research. So the big buy for CNCX was Webhelp in 2023 for 4.8 billion. They also purchased Servicesourse 2022, PK 2021, SAI digital 2025 [just talking the last 5 years]. There interest expense this past quarter was 68 million, the first half of 2026 was 143 million in interest. They owe about 4.6 billion at the moment. They are paying the debt down. They suspended buybacks to do so, they also have a dividend. The first 6 months of 2025 the interest expense was over 160 million. This isn’t really a ton of improvement to me. They should definitely focus on that debt, the interest [Although 6.6% isn’t that bad] it is costing the company 300 million per year… They model 10+ billion in sales for the year, with EPS near 10-11 but the debt! That said, I own PRGS in a similar position. I will buy 1 block of CNXC , I want people to know the thesis going in. I am not saying YOLO by any means, I normally don’t even like companies with bad earnings [PRGS has had good earnings!] So small position, risk reward 18-19, not too bad to me.. Careful though.

 

While I was in CT I did make 3 trades.

I sold 250 shares of BILL from 33.50 to 36.25

I sold 100 shares of CRM from 158.50 to 160.50

I sold 250 shares of LPG from 35.20 to 36.25

 

AVAV had incredible earnings, speculative but wow growth!

 

Good luck!

Useful $FPC interview covering Horne 5 economics, permitting progress, and next steps.

Would you watch the permit, funding plan, or partner potential first?

Disclaimer: Not financial advice. Do your own DD.

Good morning everyone. Will be super short as I have to leave about 8:30AM, get to 1 of my towns by 11:30. Closing next week on a 3 property 11 Unit deal with 1 seller next week. The following week I will be closing on a 2 family. [I only want this 2 family as it is next door to a 4 and 3 family] I am also finalizing a contract for the 4 acres of land 1 million. I can build at least 3 different 16 unit buildings, there is approval for 1 at the moment.

 

I did go back and forth with a few people this weekend on X, regarding ADBE . An insider of LLY whom also serves on the board of ADBE purchased 2 million worth at about 200 per share… There was a comment by a furu, a lot of followers that you cant just assume the buy was positive. [What is their motive, their track record] I said that using ADBE as an example is horrible. [This insider also purchased near 400 as well!]

I am in ADBE at 265 and 343.

Current fair value is near 375.

30 analysts estimate full year earnings at near 24.50

24.50 x 15 = 367.50

This is where I get the 375!

It currently trades at 8x… 8x!!!

Private good companies trade at 5-10x….

My real estate returns my money with more head aches at 6-8x… WTF!

So I am not wrong on ADBE ! The facts are 18% earnings growth the latest quarter, with 13% sales growth! Record sales, record earnings!

The market is perception… PLTR is a great company but trades at near 85x.. TSLA is a cesspool and trades at 200x…

So, saying be careful, guy purchased ADBE at 16x before… now at 8x…. are you trying to imply that the person was dumb? I am telling you the market is DUMB DUMB!

But this is a live auction. The facts, the numbers on ADBE are the numbers.. The stock price makes 0 sense, but here we are. I am not buying more shares because I am not sitting on 100+ million or billions. I do not want more exposure. I don’t really buy more than a few blocks of any 1 company.

Wow NOW and CHYM ! I put in bids of 88 and 16.50 just days ago and it almost hit! No FOMO.. but wow. I am up on 250 BILL at 33.50 and 100 NVDA at 194.

 

I traded 75 shares of INTU from 255 to 263

I traded 250 shares of HIMS from 30.50 to 32.50

I am in 250 shares of LPG 35.20

 

Good luck, I have to run!

Good morning everyone. I basically did my CT stuff, and checked in every few hours. I mainly do research, DD, check charts and quotes on my desktop. I trade on my phone but 80% of trades are on my desktop, and 100% of my DD. I started to use AI for DD.. Because quality DD used to take about 90 mins for me. This is to check 10Q, margins, expenses, why was expenses higher? How was MA, any major contracts/sales… Compare these costs to last quarter, and then year over year. What is big money saying? [buying/selling] What are insiders saying? What is the market saying? For instance, CBRS yesterday had great earnings, brand new IPO, relative to how it had been trading, it is in the dog house, but this thing has very little sales, doesn’t make money and is still 50 billion! [Not that they wont, the growth is incredible] but all of that is priced in! This thing is near 50% of the highs, a new trader would say this is a steal…. A veteran would say the growth is great but maybe does not support this valuation. This is also important this day because retail has put WEN back on the map! So I wanted to do quick AI dd on it, risks reward… and I added it to “Plays” The company is actually near flat, meaning sales year over year is virtually the same last few years… no growth, earnings growth is near 2-5%... The company is not going anywhere short term, the PE is near. The Market cap is about 1.2 billion, they have basically have 0 cash flows, meaning they don’t have anything extra after business, even negative cash flow… in other words it is a dead company… But a PE near 10, a real business, they don’t have to go to the market to get cash. [AMC still selling, GME with offerings and bonds, took in near 12 billion from retail, and has near 9.5 billion cash… mean they have wasted away 2.5 billion, PLEASE FACT CHECK ME!!!! PLEASE! Memesters!]

SPCX is a brand new IPO, they had high demand and sold near 90 billion in shares at IPO [Original target of 75 but firms wanted more shares and did exercise options] They also just raised in bonds over 25 billion.

So 1 week public…

1 week! And they extracted 115 billion from the markets! FACT CHECK ME! These are facts and just 1 week…. A company lost 5-6 billion last year….. had 19 billion in sales… took 115 billion from investors… and you aren’t going to admit that is shill? Fishy?

Friends, TSLA has been around for 20+ years and has raised about 110 billion, via Offerings, bonds, insider sales… So SPCX in just 1 week has shafted more!

Once again, not saying SPCX isn’t promising but stating facts that their bread and butter is selling hopes and dreams = Shill to me

GME business plan same thing, shaft the market, and use the cash for ideas that may have a business model/business plan..

Stop being mad at me for calling out the truth! Wake up!

A trade is a trade though, if you know the risk and choose to still make the trade, I am for that…

I just hate being lied to, brainwashed and not having the information.

You choose your risk profile.

 

So yesterday all I did was sell 2 positions.

I sold 75 shares of INTO from 258 to 263.50

I sold 250 shares of FISV from 47.50 to 48

 

I am not sure what to do today, are we selling off? Are we going to be flat? What is going on? The risk reward is high here though. I don’t want to stop anyone from making money, you know your comfort zone… I am getting ready to buy 4 acres of land, and build 3 – 16 unit buildings on it, that will be my focus… If we dropped to 6,500 [Fair value 6,720 in my eyes] then I would be getting a deal in the market…

 

I am thinking of NVDA below 200 CELH below 28 UBER below 70… but undecided.

I did add WEN to plays, company is dead, but if retail memes this, it isn’t liking it is a shill company [AMC GME]

 

Excellent earnings:

DAKT [Tiny]         CBRS [Newer IPO great earnings but valuation]

 

Very Good earnings:

FDX

 

Good luck!

Good morning everyone. I was very busy with 1 of my banks yesterday going over the 4 Acre land and the new building. I was getting the terms so that today I can go under contract! It should close by September/October, because this will be a lot of land, and a 2 year construction loan, interest only on 2 years, but it must be built, kind of like a bridge financing. It is very complicated but my first deal on a new build. I shared the math on this last week, I shared the new build estimate on X, I shared the video on X last Friday and retweeted. So I need to finalize the deal on the land.

I am also closing on a 3 property 11 Unit deal in Bristol within 2 weeks.

I am closing in a 2 family, next door to stuff I own by Mid July.

I also have a 3 family that should close end of July or first week of August.

So busy busy busy.

 

Sorry, I am tired of reading about the grifter that is Elon, tired of TSLA and SPCX . It is sad this day and age you don’t even need full DD. You can ask AI even Grok to do it for you! SPCX owns Grok…. Musk used TSLA shares to buy Twitter, he didn’t know what he was doing, couldn’t make money, that wiped out all that debt when he merged X with XAI… Then XAI had all this debt, then he wiped it out by merging it with SPCX. [Do you not see this pattern? FACTS! ] You would think all this money raised he can fix X. Over the last 30-60 days I can no longer search tweets, and quote my calls on stuff like MU under 80.

In any case, now we have MU earnings. These are facts… FACTS!

Earnings growth was 1200% to 29 billion income over their last fiscal quarter. Sales growth was 345% to 41.5 billion. They generated positive cash flow of 25.4 billion that quarter..

Yes! In those 3 months the company has made almost as much as 20+ years of TSLA as a public company… Ask GROK ask AI! This is not some conspiracy… and I am just tired of 200x on TSLA , 1 million in SPCX .. Do you understand because we put so much emphasis on Musk, TSLA and SPCX when people wake up and these come down hard it will likely take the market with it. It has been announced that SPCX is going on the Nasdaq 100. THAT IS NOT GOOD! 5+ Years ago when TSLA was added to SPY VOO SP500 it was pure hoopla. It is a sad sad thing…. Especially since now you can pull up facts so fast, how does he continue to trick people? Makes me sick!

 

Sentiment may be positive after MU earnings. I may go in a few plays. I saw NVDA at 197 CELH 28 HIMS 31.25 INTU 256 PINS 19.50 PYPL 41.50 [After I sold 43.25], UBER 69.70 [Before Pelosi] Z 30

I did trade 1 long.. my trades:

I sold 100 shares of ROOT from 52 to 53.50

I sold 250 shares of PYPL from 42.75 to 43.25

I traded 500 shares of NOG 18.75 to 19.30

 

I will be busy with CT, but I may trade a little.

Excellent earnings from:

SNX        MU [EPS 1200% Sales 345% 41.5 billion, Guidance 341% 29 billion income, 25.4 operating cash flow]

 

Very good earnings from:

SNX        MU [EPS 1200% Sales 345% 41.5 billion, Guidance 341% 29 billion income, 25.4 operating cash flow]

 

Good earnings: DRI

 

I have to run, Good luck!

A few weeks ago I had three bots running, two on a cloud server and one on my laptop, and over a week they took zero trades. I figured the market was quiet and kept paying for the VPS.

It wasn't the market.

When I finally read the code properly, one bot had a take-profit set below its entry price. It literally could not book a winning trade. Another had a timer that could never complete.

Across a year of historical data the thing detected 184 valid setups and killed 100% of them before a single order went through. I was days away from funding it with real money.

That sent me down a rabbit hole building a proper testing pipeline.

Now I want to point it at someone else's bot, in the open.

Here's what I'm doing:

Reply or DM me a bot you're suspicious of.

I'll pick one, run it through the full audit, and post the results back in this thread.

Everything anonymized. No names. No code shared publicly.

You get a free teardown and everyone else gets to see what an honest audit actually looks like.

What I check:

• Whether it can even place a trade.

I've seen more bots with logic bugs that make execution literally impossible than I expected. Code read plus candle-by-candle replay catches these.

• Whether it ever had an edge.

Multi-year backtest against just buying and holding the same asset. Most don't survive this.

• Whether fees kill it.

Same backtest at zero cost versus real commissions and slippage. A lot of strategies that look profitable on paper only work because they assume free execution.

• Whether the settings are curve-fitted.

A parameter grid sweep across nearby values. If the edge only exists at one specific setting and falls apart everywhere around it, that's not edge, that's luck.

At the end I give it one of four verdicts:

• Mechanically broken
• No historical edge
• Edge with caveats
• Validated

Not selling anything here.

If you want to see what the output looks like, here's a full report on one of my own failed bots:

https://botwringer.com/sample-report.pdf

And the methodology if you want to know exactly how I run it:

https://botwringer.com/methodology.html

Best candidates are something you bought or downloaded rather than built yourself.

Python is easiest to work with and crypto markets are what I have the most historical data for.

Just drop what market it trades and whether you have the source code.

I'll pick one by Thursday.

(Educational analysis of software you own, not investment advice.)

Good morning everyone. Of course SPCX and TSLA are big and it is still all over X and I am sure everywhere on social media. I wrote how it is important to the market, especially for sentiment. Please, stop overthinking things..

Why is stock X up…

Why is stock X down…

Explain it to me like I am 5

Stock X fell because so and so

Stock X went up because so and so

You are over complicating things. STOP IT! It took me years also to finally accept that the stock market is a live auction built on daily sentiment!

As such, no one, including me, can tell you what any stock is going to when. We can not predict sentiment on a daily basis… We can say for sure, that generally, most people are bullish, optimistic, we can also say that inflation is natural, so our companies will sell more in dollars and therefore earn more… meaning we will always see record highs on any index.

If you have 100 shares of a company.

And just 1 share trades in a day… That 1 sell determines the market cap of the entire company, the 99 hodlers fate is in the hands of that 1 trade.

If company A has 100 shares at 1,000 each it is worth 100,000.

If for some reason it trades in a public market at 50 the next day…

The company is worth 50,000!!

That is it! Simple as that!

When a company is popular and everyone talks about it, there is a narrative, speculation, a fake perception of value. [TSLA duh! TSLA is a cess pool of a company that can not make money, if you gave TSLA a 40x multiple the current price would be just over 75!!!

Every stock on the title has below a 40x!!!!!] Why the hell should TSLA have a higher premium than MSFT AMZN AAPL META LOL! Are you insane!??!!!

As I have said, and always say, 99% of the world is brainwashed with Elon Musk. So the current stock price is a reference point. They use a stock price to decide if the company/stock is cheap… They do not use any fundamentals…

It does not matter if the company is 100K, 100 million, 1 billion, 100 billion or a trillion!

The traders today, effect the price of the entire company! We do not even need volume!!!!

Supply and demand control the stock price… Generally, when a company has way more shares available, that means more players can come in and effect the stock price…

When a company makes cash, they can come in to the auction with huge buys, retire shares…

When this happens they are causing a huge swing in demand and cutting down supply big time… They are also increasing earnings per share because there are less shares available…

When insiders see that a company can not make money, or is high, they will likely come to market and use us as exit liquidity to turn equity/paper into cash… Without a stock market is not easy to access cash for insiders.. companies come public as a way to access cash!

TSLA has used the market for over 100 billion. [Insiders, offerings, debt]  Without being public they did not have access to cash. The company itself has made under 40 billion. These are facts, fact check me please.. You can use AI and do DD in 5 mins!

 

So please, please, stop overthinking it. SPCX is going down because there are more sellers than buyers! That is it! Sentiment and daily price action are reflected in the current stock price…. Yes, the company is growing and can be very promising, no doubt! I will say that too… But what price do you put on a company that had 18 billion in sales 2025, lost 5 billion on them?

100 billion valuation? 250 billion?

I do not know either!

So I said maybe because of all the promise, maybe 500 billion, or near 25 per share? I do not know…

As I said, I am old school, I rarely like to pay over 40x for any company! I can buy MSFT META AMZN all near 20x … NOW CRM ADBE PYPL all near 10x… Why the hell would I pay infinity for SPCX and 200x for TSLA . Come on man, I have been around trading since 1994!

 

I do not want to make moves here. The risk reward is high. SPY VOO based on growth in earnings/sales, my fair value currently is about 6,720.

Not that we will fall there, No one knows, including me! But anything over the risk reward in my opinion are bad. [320 earnings x 21 = 6,720] Incredible earnings and sales, but still! We came in at near 270 for 2025.

 

I had to remove PRIM from plays, that guidance was off a cliff bad! Maybe at 50, shocking!

I traded 75 shares of INTU from 260 to 266.50 [Then bought back in 258]

I am in 250 FISV at 47.50

 

Careful and good luck!

Good morning everyone. I just retweeted the video from Friday. I am going over the near 4 acres of land available for 1 million. The 16 unit new build that has received the approval from the town is 3.5 million for a total cost of 4.5 million. With the model that I have used I will make about 150,000 per year. The 30% down for all of this will be 1,350,000. That is about an 8% return, this is without some tax benefits that I will get, very preliminary.

So you know, before the market went nuts in 2020, the SP500 SPY VOO for nearly 100 years before 2020! Was about 9%... The numbers have been skewed since, so we are yielding a near 10.5% return. Not that we can not keep doling that, just that the risk reward is not as good. Majority of the multi families I purchase now I get a return on my money in 6 to 8 years. If the avg return is 7 years, I am getting a 10.5% return on my money, without the tax gains. [Yes, this is not passive and is another job!] If I get it back in 6 years then that is 12.5%.. So when people ask me why I get into real estate there you have it…

I started in 2017 with real estate. I started trading/investing in 1994. The market is my pure love, and I will get larger positions and be willing to trade more if we fell below fair value.

At below fair value, in my eyes, I am getting a discount. Fair value to me is 6,720…

Providing earnings/sales or some other agenda doesn’t arrive with that dip…. I estimate more than 50% of my net worth is now real estate… It is steadily grown… So you are aware my goal over the last 20 years with trading was simply to make 100K from trading, no % wise or nothing fancy. I have invested a ton in real estate. I have wasted over 2 million in cars, probably have nearly 250k or more in jewelry in a safe box.. I have an apartment I purchased in NY in 2016. I have a house that I barely use in Bristol, CT for sale now [Purchased March 2025], 399,000. [I don’t recommend a house for landlords near tenants]

This all came from the market, so that is my passion, 100%, but the risk is much higher to the downside and I rather sit in a lot of cash and slowly put money into real estate until a better opportunity.

 

I only made 1 trade Thursday. I purchased 75 shares of INTU at 260.50 and sold at 268.50.

 

I am willing to get 3 longs but I am going to be careful about it. The title has many of the stocks that I feel are near a fair value. Next Tuesday the 2^(nd) quarter closes. We get Q2 earnings around 7/10-7/15 so that will be a great time to trade, and get active.. No FOMO now. That is also the best time to add or subtract stocks to your portfolio or watch lists.

Good luck!
