wait and try again

Remains to be seen if wait/retry is a good technique for me, but today UPST was my favorite setup. At first, it was the only one I watched that didn't explode up at ~9:35 with the market, so I raised my stop.



Market full bull open so I tried again, early but market still launching, and I had a nervous few bars to sit through until it finally launched. Didn't take pl target bc I'm working on trading by targets on the stock price. This time it worked out great!
