NVDA +18%

Daily setup: gap up volume, looking to trade above long term trendline
Entry/play: waited for pivot. Then looked for break to ndh. 
Management: stop below entry bar, then trail. When it stalled at 9:43, and market was topping, I got nervous and squeezed stop. 
Psychology: Good. Got my piece, and peace. It will always seem regrettable (also on TGT today) to miss the next leg up, but I need to stick with peace.
