Sometimes the market hands you patterns so consistent they almost seem too good to be true. But when you’ve got a decade of data backing up a trading opportunity, it’s worth paying serious attention.
I recently identified Fastenal (FAST) as the No. 1 stock on my On the Clock Stocks seasonal calendar, and the statistics behind this pick are genuinely remarkable. From Oct. 6 over the next 29 days — which puts you around Nov. 4 — FAST has gone up 100% of the time for the past 10 years straight.
Let me repeat that: 100% of the time. Every single year on those same exact dates.
The Numbers Don’t Lie
When I look at the historical data, the consistency is striking — all on those same exact dates each and every time. The average return over this 29-day window?
FAST has averaged almost 10% over the next month.
This isn’t some random observation I stumbled upon. My system specifically hunts for stocks that have gone up every single year on the same exact dates for the last 10 years, using premium market data that costs over $100,000 annually.
These are the kinds of seasonal anomalies that most traders never even know exist.
Risk Factors to Consider
Now, I need to be transparent about one key detail: FAST does have earnings coming up during this period, so keep that in mind. Earnings always add an element of unpredictability, even to the most consistent seasonal patterns.
And there’s no such thing as a guarantee in trading, but it’s certainly a tradable edge.
Here’s what makes this really compelling — despite having earnings announcements during this window historically, the pattern has held for a full decade. That kind of consistency in the face of quarterly volatility is what separates genuine seasonal anomalies from random market noise.
I’m planning to implement various options strategies around this opportunity, including basic calls, at-the-money debit spreads, and max ROI spreads.
Based on that 10% average move over the 29-day holding period, that could potentially return 300-400% on the right options IF everything goes according to plan!
