Trade Planning:
- Daily Chart: Uptrend, Consolidation below recent ATH.
- TTM Squeeze: 195m
- Earnings Date: 5/19-
Reason For Entry:
- Playing 195m chart. GSX is in a pattern of consolidation below ATH. The TTM is in a squeeze and gaining momentum. Entered the PCS trade as price entered buy zone (lower bb). Risking about 1% of portfolio. Betting that price closes above $40 at expiration on 200417.
Reason For Exit:
- GSX fired short and I closed the trade for a loss (.75% of portfolio) small loss.
Recap:
- PCS play. Nice entry at a symmetry point. Almost locked in a 45% win but order did not fill. TTM fired short and closed the trade for a small loss.
