This month’s top trades were led by NVIDIA (NASDAQ: NVDA), which saw its share price fluctuate throughout November, essentially ending the month at the same price it started at (as at the time of publishing). The top trades were followed by Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA), with Sharesight users split between buy and sell trades amid surging share prices. Bitcoin also made it into the top 10, hitting all-time highs in the wake of the US election.

It should be noted that the assets in our trading snapshots are ordered by the number of Sharesight users trading that asset, while the size of the bars indicate the actual trade volume. So while there are more customers trading in NVDA, the volume of TSLA trades is higher, meaning that while there are fewer people trading in TSLA, they are making more trades.

Overall, it was a strong month for tech stocks, with 14 of the top 20 trades consisting of stocks belonging to the tech, EV, semiconductor and e-commerce sectors.
