I was searching for some links betwen the war and stocks and came across two Steel and Iron companies.
MTL was already up 49% on the day, and we were sitting right around noon. not the best time to be looking to take a position.
it was holding support around 2.85 and with the recent Iran news, it made sense that we were seeing a push.
Thought there could be a test back to highs but if no volume came in then this would most likely be done.
Ended up holding but never pushing to highs. I didnt use a stop limit, written limit was half position off holding at 2.80 as resistence. it did go under briefly but then pushed back fast where I ended up selling into too.
looking back I went into this to fast, dont like the risk reward
