Was trending all afternoon with great momentum.
Continuously successive 5 minute flag setups.
A false breakout on the next 5 minute candle to make a new high.
Continuation off the 20 EMA and make higher highs, breaking daily resistance since it already met it at the 9 EMA (daily).
Bought the first 5m candle to make a new high, after selling off to the 20 EMA (5m). So these usually don't net much profit but I knew there would be resolution, and maybe possibly a retest of daily highs. The latter very unlikely but the fact that the trade could have ended in a winner was enough to take it.
Elated because I love trading ETFs, and although I am taking a break on them, I am still going to trade UGAZ all winter, as this is the season where /NG starts to trend well. So was nice finishing green on an ETF, which really boosted my confidence and added excitement for what's to come this season.
Losing awareness and missing out on the cleaner 5 minute setup from earlier. So I ended up taking this one which was much less profitable.
Locked in half my gains as it squeezed above the 5m 20 EMA since, especially after a daily chart rejection, there most likely wouldn't be continuation.
Set a series of alerts on UGAZ each and every morning based on the daily chart so I know when and where it's trending.
