The Backup Plan for When GPS Goes Down

Trade of the Day Wake-Up Watchlist

"Daily and weekly trends both pointing up, and a squeeze sitting right on top. That's a loaded setup."

Nate Bear, Lead Technical Tactician, Monument Traders Alliance

GPS does way more than find you a gas station.

That signal sets the clock on the power grid, the cell towers, and the timestamp on just about every financial trade in the country.

It's running in the background of everything, and it can be jammed or knocked out. When that happens, a lot of important stuff starts breaking.

That's what NextNav is going after. Ticker's NN.

They're building a ground-based backup to GPS off existing 5G networks and the spectrum they already own, so when the satellites go dark, the grid and the networks stay up.

And this isn't a someday idea.

NextNav already ran a live test and hit timing accuracy of about 20 nanoseconds with no GPS at all, five times tighter than what critical infrastructure actually needs.

It works.

The FCC has also opened up rulemaking on the exact spectrum NN holds, with support from both parties that want a GPS backup in place. That's what's been driving the stock.

Good story. But I don't buy stories, I buy charts that confirm them. So let's put NN through TPS: trend, pattern, squeeze.

The Elon Musk “Mystery Metal” That Could Break China’s Grip

100X More Valuable Than Gold, Lithium, Or Even Oil
 

Trump called America's rare-earth dependence a "national emergency." But one potential breakthrough… quietly engineered by Elon Musk… could end that crisis forever. And one tiny company is sitting at the center of it all. Musk is expected to make an announcement any day now.

See more about this secret project here.

Trend

This is where it starts.

NN closed Thursday at $23.59, up more than 9% on the day. Line up the moving averages and they're stacked in the right order on the daily, and stacked the same way on the weekly.

Two timeframes pointing the same direction is a lot stronger than one. The buyers own this thing right now.

Pattern

Look at the shape of it. NN just punched out to a brand-new high on that 9% candle.

Breaking to new highs on a big green day, instead of stalling out, tells me there's still demand chasing it higher.

Squeeze

This is the one that got me to write it up.

A squeeze is what you get when a chart goes quiet and the range tightens up, all that energy compressing with nowhere to go. The TTM squeeze on NN just turned on.

Put a fresh squeeze on a stock already trending hard on two timeframes, and you've got a chart wound up tight and ready to pop.

Trend, pattern, squeeze, all three lined up on the same name. That's the kind of chart I go hunting for.

Now the honest part.

NN is small and speculative, still early in its story, and it can swing hard both ways.

Which is why I’m looking at this as a trade and not an investment. More so, the setups I trade tend to be short-term.

I want to be in and out in a few days.

Your Action Plan

NN is on my watchlist, and I'm closely monitoring it.

When one of these fires, the alert goes out live inDaily Profits Live, I run through my watchlist daily, and then I trade live in front of members.

Not only do you get to see what I’m trading, but you also learn why I’m making the moves I am and can ask questions along the way.
