We recently went live on stream with Bybit, diving into one of their most exciting updates yet. You can now trade traditional assets like stocks and commodities using USDT—no bank needed. This means your crypto portfolio can now blend into equities, all inside the Bybit app.
For me, this comes at the perfect time. I’ve started diversifying outside of crypto, and now I can do it without leaving my favorite exchange. In this blog, I’ll walk you through my top 5 stock picks, all available for trading on Bybit through their new TradFi feature.
How to Trade Stocks on Bybit
Let’s first get the steps clear:
- Open the Bybit mobile app
- Tap the Trade button in the bottom center
- Scroll right in the menu to find TradFi
- Transfer your USDT from the funding account
- You’re ready to trade real-world stocks
Note: Desktop support is coming, but for now, it’s mobile only.
My Stock Picks on Bybit
If you missed the livestream, you can watch it here. Over 170,000 people tuned in. The feedback was incredible. Now let’s break down the five stock picks I shared during the session.
Starbucks ($SBUX)
Starbucks has been brewing more than coffee. It’s been brewing a long-term recovery. Despite recent challenges, Starbucks remains a household name with unmatched brand power. The company operates over 40,000 stores across 80+ countries and generates billions in recurring revenue through store sales and packaged goods. While the U.S. market slowed recently, Starbucks launched a new turnaround plan focused on improving speed, service, and customer satisfaction.
Technically, Starbucks is showing signs of recovery after months of consolidation. The weekly chart is forming higher lows. It’s aiming to reclaim its 100-week EMA after bouncing hard off recent lows during the market panic.
Entry: $93
Target: $106–$125
Rewards (Pros):
- Global brand with strong customer loyalty
- Diversified income through stores, RTD drinks, and partnerships
- Solid balance sheet and ongoing transformation strategy
Risks (Cons):
- Slower sales growth in North America and China
- Rising labor and commodity costs
- Execution risk on its turnaround plan
Amazon ($AMZN)
Amazon is a tech titan with reach across e-commerce, cloud computing (AWS), advertising, and AI. With over $600 billion in revenue and a portfolio of futuristic bets like robotics, drone delivery, and healthcare, Amazon is one of the most diversified businesses on the planet. AWS alone contributes the bulk of Amazon’s profits, and its AI investments could push margins even higher in the coming years.
From a technical standpoint, Amazon is hugging its EMAs and waiting for a breakout. The all-time high of $235 from early 2025 is the key level. Once it clears, there’s little resistance above.
Entry: $180
Target: Long-term hold (no defined exit)
Rewards (Pros):
- Massive scale across multiple industries
- AWS and ad segments are highly profitable
- Strong free cash flow and AI growth story
Risks (Cons):
- E-commerce margins remain thin
- Regulatory scrutiny could grow
- Slower U.S. retail growth could weigh short-term
Uber ($UBER)
Uber is no longer just a ride-hailing app. It now leads in ride-sharing, delivery (Uber Eats), and freight logistics. After years of burning cash, Uber posted its first annual profit in 2023. With new tech in autonomous vehicles and expanding international reach, Uber is positioning itself as a global mobility platform. Their long-term bet on robotaxis and logistics infrastructure could be a game changer.
The stock recently surged to $94 before pulling back. This retest near $84 aligns with key weekly EMAs. It’s a textbook support bounce setup.
Entry: $84 (or wait for $80.50)
Target: $125
Rewards (Pros):
- Market leader in both mobility and delivery
- High growth in Uber for Business and Eats
- Profitable with strong user growth
Risks (Cons):
- Regulatory battles over gig workers
- New competition in robotaxi space (Tesla, Waymo)
- Execution risk in scaling logistics
Maplebear (Instacart) ($CART)
Maplebear, known as Instacart, dominates online grocery delivery in the U.S. They serve 98% of households and work with 24 of the 25 largest grocers. With a growing advertising arm and no debt on the books, CART is building a business that scales well. Their average order size is large, which helps profitability, and the RS rating of 84 shows technical strength.
CART just broke out of a cup-and-handle base and is now retesting the neckline. If it reclaims $47.50, a fast move toward $52 is likely.
Entry: $43.80
Target: $51 or hold longer
Rewards (Pros):
- First mover in online grocery delivery
- High-margin ad business adds profits
- Technically strong relative strength
Risks (Cons):
- EPS volatility quarter to quarter
- High competition from DoorDash, Walmart, Uber Eats
- Not yet confirmed breakout
Eaton Corp ($ETN)
Eaton is one of the best-kept secrets in industrial investing. They build smart power management systems used in aerospace, electric vehicles, data centers, and buildings. Eaton is a leader in electrification and clean infrastructure. Their fundamentals are strong, with record margins and solid dividend growth.
Technically, Eaton is in a clean consolidation range between $312 and $339. If it breaks above $338, we could see a long-term move toward $400.
Entry: $332
Stop-Loss: $323
Target: $370–$400
Rewards (Pros):
- Broad exposure to infrastructure and clean energy
- High margins and consistent free cash flow
- Strong support from data center and aerospace growth
Risks (Cons):
- Sluggish vehicle segment performance
- Macro sensitivity to construction and energy cycles
- Requires $338 breakout to confirm trend
Watchlist: Stocks to Monitor
Here are five stocks I’m watching closely. They’re not official picks (yet), but could make the list soon.
$HOOD – Robinhood
Robinhood is expanding beyond trading into crypto wallets, retirement accounts, and recurring investments. Its user growth is stabilizing, and it’s making moves toward profitability.
Pros:
- High brand recognition among Gen Z
- Simplified investing platform with crypto exposure
Cons:
- Still not consistently profitable
- Faces strong regulatory scrutiny
$AMD – Advanced Micro Devices
AMD is fighting Nvidia for dominance in AI chips. They also lead in gaming and CPUs for PCs and data centers. MI300 chips and Ryzen AI are driving next-gen growth.
Pros:
- Leader in AI and gaming hardware
- Consistent margin expansion
Cons:
- U.S.-China export restrictions may hit revenue
- Fierce competition from Intel and Nvidia
$GOOGL – Alphabet
Google is a digital empire: search, YouTube, Android, cloud, and now AI with Gemini. They print money from ads and are quietly becoming a key player in AI.
Pros:
- Dominant in search and online video
- Huge cash reserves and high margins
Cons:
- AI monetization still unclear
- Regulatory pressure in U.S. and EU
$INTC – Intel
Intel is trying to regain its edge with foundry services, AI chips, and new leadership. Their pivot to domestic manufacturing is bold, but risky.
Pros:
- Only U.S. chipmaker with in-house fabs
- Government backing for chip production
Cons:
- Lagging behind AMD and Nvidia in innovation
- High capex needs and tight margins
$NBIS – [Speculative Pick]
NBIS is an under-the-radar biotech play. It’s small, but recent momentum and news have pushed it into my watchlist. High risk, high reward.
Pros:
- Strong price momentum
- Potential for positive catalyst
Cons:
- Illiquid and speculative
- Requires deep research before entry
