*I became overly bullish on the issues that I am currently holding because of my candlestick readings. However, candlesticks does seem unreliable and giving off fake readings so I am just going to use it to check price action and not for possible price behavior in the short term. I would be sticking with the other 2 technical indicators that I am using now for future price actions as they seem more consistent.

AP is up by 24.68% within twenty-four trading days with doubled up position.
AEV is up by 9.38% within thirteen trading days.
