A Rare “Long Hold” Call Strikes Again: Retail Trader Delivers Another Market-Defying Win With $CDTX
The retail trading world is buzzing today as Grandmaster-Obi, one of the most closely watched day-trader personalities of 2025, has delivered yet another staggering victory—this time on a play he labeled months ago as a rare “LONG HOLD.”
On June 23, 2025, Obi issued a long-term conviction call on Cidara Therapeutics (CDTX) at an entry price of $34, telling his community it was one of the few stocks he believed had multi-month upside potential.
Today—November 14, 2025—CDTX exploded to a high of $218.85, representing a +543% gain from his original long-hold entry.
For a trader known for high-velocity intraday moves, a “LONG HOLD” tag from Obi is rare. In fact, in the last two years, he has applied that label only three times. And every single one has become a monster win.
The Three Legendary “LONG HOLD” Calls
1. CDTX — +543% Gain
- Entry: $34 (June 23, 2025)
- High: $218.85 (November 14, 2025)
- Gain: +543%
CDTX’s surge has put the broader biotech sector on notice and left traders stunned by Obi’s months-ahead anticipation of the breakout.
2. OKLO — +651% Gain So Far
- Entry: $25.60 (March 11, 2025)
- High: $192.35 (October 15, 2025)
- Gain: +651%
As of today, OKLO still trades above $105—meaning the long-hold call remains deep in profit even after its peak. This play alone brought massive attention to Obi earlier in the year and cemented him as one of the few retail traders capable of identifying multi-month trend reversals before institutions.
3. PLTR — +901% Gain
- Entry: $22.19 (August 5, 2024)
- High: $222 (November 3, 2025)
- Gain: +901%
Obi’s long-hold tag on Palantir has become one of his most talked-about calls across Reddit, Twitter, StockTwits, and Discord. Even today, PLTR still trades above $175, providing one of the strongest long-term returns in the retail-trading community—far outperforming major hedge funds and quant desks.
A New Momentum Shock: The CYPH Move
To add fuel to the fire, Obi also hit another home run this week with CYPH.
- Entry: $0.42 (November 11, 2025)
- High: $3.11 (November 14, 2025)
- Gain: +640% in just 72 hours
This short-term move, stacked on top of the CDTX long-term breakout, has amplified online chatter and drawn waves of new traders to his content.
Why Reddit and Twitter Are Exploding With His Name
Across social media, traders are calling Obi:
- “The most accurate retail trader in years”
- “The only trader beating the algos consistently”
- “Roaring Kitty for high-momentum and microcaps”
- “The one retail trader Wall Street wishes they could ignore—but can’t”
The reasons for the hype are clear:
1. Accuracy Over a Long Stretch
It’s one thing to hit an intraday spike.
It’s another to consistently deliver triple-digit moves for months.
Obi’s long-hold track record is turning heads even among institutional traders.
2. The Rarity of His Long-Hold Tag
Because Obi uses the “LONG HOLD” label almost never, the market pays attention when he does.
Only three tickers have ever earned the tag:
- PLTR
- OKLO
- CDTX
All three became massive winners.
3. Retail Traders Feel Like They’re Finally Ahead of Wall Street
When a retail trader correctly identifies multi-month macro and sector shifts, outperforming hedge funds, analysts, and quant strategies, the community notices.
Many on Reddit argue that Obi is doing something few retail traders ever pull off—
identifying long-term winners before institutions accumulate.
4. His Alerts Align With Major Sector Rotation Trends
From AI (PLTR)
to advanced nuclear (OKLO)
to biotech (CDTX, CYPH),
Obi’s calls are landing in the strongest emerging sectors of 2024–2025.
A Retail Legend Still Growing
With his long-term accuracy now documented across multiple sectors and his short-term trades continuing to outperform, Grandmaster-Obi is rapidly becoming one of the most influential traders in the retail ecosystem.
The long-hold breakout of CDTX is only adding to the mystique surrounding him.
As social media continues to buzz, one thing is becoming increasingly clear:
Wall Street may have Roaring Kitty…
But 2025 belongs to Grandmaster-Obi.
