Happy New Year! How is the start of 2026?
Some of you might be in a new role or even a new job. Some of you are on the way to be promoted as parents or grandparents. Congratulations!
2026 began on a volatile note. The US stock market started off 2026 bullish before turning bearish at the snap of a finger.
Geopolitics is also becoming more volatile, with the US bombing Venezuela and capturing its President and his wife.
With such a whirlwind start to 2026, we can expect 2026 to bring a lot more uncertainties.
Thankfully, we have a tested and proven trading system to help us ride the waves in the market.
Before I share the 2 stocks which I think could rise this month, you may want to review the performance of the 2 stocks shared in December.
Cameco (NYSE: CCJ)
Source: cameco.com
1. About the Company
Cameco was formed in 1988 through the merger of 2 companies, SMDC and Eldorado Nuclear, to supply nuclear energy.
Through strong leadership and acquisitions, Cameco grew rapidly.
Enjoying success after success, Cameco didn’t rest on its laurels. A recent acquisition in 2023 transformed Cameco into a global leader in uranium production.
As many countries are exploring the feasibility of nuclear energy, Cameco’s stock could continue to soar.
But, does it make sense to buy its shares for a position trade?
2. Position Trading (Daily)
There are a few important details that you can glean from the chart above.
The first important detail is the price trend of the shares of Cameco.
Can you tell that its share price has been in a solid uptrend?
This can be inferred by comparing the number of red candles (outlined and solid) against those in blue (outlined and solid). Yes, this is without the need to plot trendlines or use other technical indicators such as the moving average.
Now that you know its price trend, it’s time to look at the 2 proprietary indicators – the green arrow and Trend Impulse Factor.
Do you see a green arrow under its latest candle?
The presence of that green arrow tells you that this bullish move is fresh.
Next, let’s look at the color of the bar of its Trend Impulse Factor.
A dark green bar suggests that this fresh uptrend is likely to be sustainable.
Do you like what you see?
The presence of the green arrow and the Trend Impulse Factor’s bar in dark green is positive news!
Hence, I think that the time to buy the shares of Cameco is here.
Futu (NASDAQ: FUTU)

1. About the Company
Futu is a relatively young fintech company, founded in 2012.
But it wasted no time in disrupting the finance world with new digital offerings in a single app.
With early success, Futu continued to expand its boundaries by obtaining over 100 licenses and qualifications all over the world.
The convenience of obtaining its services at low fees, and strong marketing campaigns propelled Futu to become a major player in Asia.
Is this a strong enough reason to buy its shares for a position trade?
2. Position Trading (Daily)
Let’s analyze the share price of Futu together.
Can you tell the price trend of its shares?
Futu’s shares are in a massive uptrend.
This can be told by comparing the number of blue candles (outlined and solid) against those in red (outlined and solid) without the need of other technical indicators. When there are more blue candles than red, the share price of that stock is in an uptrend.
Knowing that Futu’s shares are in an uptrend, it’s time to look at the 2 proprietary indicators – the green arrow and Trend Impulse Factor.
Is there a green arrow under its latest candle?
There is! This signals a fresh bullish move.
Next, what’s the color of the Trend Impulse Factor’s bar?
It’s dark green in color. Hooray!
This fresh bullish move is highly likely to continue, so I’ll want to buy Futu’s shares for a position trade now!
Conclusion
2026 has only just begun we’ve experienced volatility in the US stock market and geopolitics.
As the year progresses with US President Donald Trump entering his 2nd year in office, we could continue to experience volatility.
Does this mean that you stay clear of the market?
Instead of staying clear of the market, you can rely on the TradersGPS (TGPS) system that’s created to help you determine if a stock is ready for action to be taken. You won’t have to feel in the dark and make wild guesses.
Our proprietary indicator shows that a fresh bullish move has been spotted in both Cameco’s and Futu’s shares.
