A 140% Nat Gas Winner!

Back on April 13, with Range Resources (RRC) trading at 3.91, Mike Paulenoff told members in his Trading Room:
"I am very friendly to RR 'down here,' looking for it to climb above 4.90-5.10 nearest key resistance, which will project upside potential to 10.00 next. Only a sharp decline that breaks its 3/13 low at 1.61 will invalidate my current technical set up."
Mike had noted a bottoming pattern on the stock's weekly chart, plus a macro picture of a vulnerable fracking industry with a potential decrease in supply versus demand.
Fast forward to this past Tuesday August 18, and RRC hit a high of 9.37, a full 140% above its price at Mike's April 13 post and just 63 cents shy of Mike's $10 target.
Where is RRC headed next?
Mike produced additional analysis in his Trading Room on Friday, indicating a warning sign of near-term upside exhaustion.

Every person on the planet is now aware that early on Saturday night, June 21st, 2025, the U.S. military attacked and severely damaged (destroyed?) Iran's nuclear sites and presumably their ability to produce nuclear materials needed to create a WMD.
Last Wednesday afternoon (6/11/25), with META circling 700 after establishing a 4-month new post-April 2025 recovery rally high at 708.87, this is what we discussed about the current technical setup: Just a heads up that my pattern work is warning me that the 52% upmove from the 4/07 low at 467.31 to today's (6/11) high at 708.87 has the right look of a completed, overextended, overbought, unconfirmed rally peak that leaves the price structure vulnerable to a correction of some magnitude.
On May 6, 2025, during the final hour of trading, and before AMD was scheduled to report quarterly Earnings that evening, I posted the following analysis to our MPTrader Discussion Room:AMD reports Earnings after the close... The only conviction I can derive from my pattern work is that the 4/08/25 low at 76.48, which represented a 66% correction from the March 2024 high at 227.30, has the right look of a significant low that completed a major bear phase.
On April 22, 2025, I posted the following analysis about my technical setup work in XBI (SPDR SP Biotech ETF):XBI (SPDR SP Biotech ETF)-- Could it be? Could it be that the near-40% correction from the 11/11/24 multi-year high at 105.47 to the 4/09/25 low at 66.66 fully discounted all the bad news in this sector? From a BIG Picture perspective, my attached Daily Chart shows this month's spike low into the vicinity of the previous major corrective low-zone starting in May 2022.
In the early afternoon on April 11, this was my note to our members:"IBIT (iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF)-- From a trading perspective, anyone who is in sync with the Bitcoin setup might consider owning IBIT (iShares Bitcoin ETF) against a stop below its 4/07/25 low at 42.98 (see my attached Daily Chart below)...
