NVDA Trade on Jul 24, 2019 09:38 from kerobo0000: Tradervue User Stock Trades.

Rationale:
-gapping up almost 1% on no news
-54% of gap ups close higher than the open; plan is to look for it to bottom if it sells off on the open

How much risk should/did I take?
-2 contracts (current max size)

Recap:

How could I have traded this better?

Gain/loss relative to expected gain/loss:
-gain in line with expectations; hit first profit target and stopped out of the remainder
-profit targets should ideally be $1 higher than entry and/or 30% gain, whichever occurs first
