Daily Setup: Flag/range break
Intraday Setup: Flag/inside 5
Layers of Probability: Market breakout/strength, AI sector hot, Strong daily setup, volume, inside day candle trigger
Entry: Inside 5 and up candle
Stop: Low of inside 5, 3.11
Targets: 60% to cover risk, 10c increments
Thoughts/Thesis/Notes during the trade:
AI has been running the past day or two with random names giving good runs. Had on watch at the open for a break of the inside day candle, watched for a couple minutes and it seemed weak with no volume and fading. I pulled up another chart to watch and when I checked back volume had increased dramatically and broken the inside day high. Too far gone to enter so I waited for a secondary setup with the inside 5 candle. It was a bit extended but a high momentum name so I took the risk. Also realized after the fact that my stop wasn't appropriate since the 8EMA had not caught up and I was susceptible to getting shaken out and the trade still working. For this reason I used 60% of my position to cover risk a bit sooner. Several addbacks that worked, one that didn't.
Areas of Success: Followed my plan, set my orders and let the trade do it's thing
Areas to Improve: Maybe set alert or keep on watch. Just unfortunate I did not get the earlier entry at 3.03, oh well.
