Daily setup: gap above box on earnings
Entry/play: 1 min new high
Management: This surged so hard I couldn't edit my order. Front half filled before I could edit the order. Second half I took off WAY too soon. I bought .3, sold .45 and .7. It went pretty smoothly to at least 1.7 as of this moment. 16% stock surge almost straight up.
Psychology: I got my piece, and I'm so happy. I couldn't have anticipated it going this bonkers.
The way to hold this trade is NOT to hold and hold. I know those can go painfully against me. The way to have held this trade would have been to shave off smaller chunks.
