- 9.55.52 NVDA S50S L9 D1 S8 E8 V4 +289 3X
a. Nice fade on the gap
b. Market in alignment, but popping. NVDA markably weaker
c. Outs were good. First half helped me get to B/E and comfy held the rest for decent moves sketchy on a stock with such a wide spread
d. V was really good
e. Improvments:
i. No hotkeys meant no adds this could have been crazy
ii. Stop was pretty tight with this one but a do or die move I guess?
f. Good:
i. Waited for the setup. Did not take it early and filled on the ask

Stop was 240c above my entry.
That first 25c is just to lock some in and be in control of the trade. i'm not scared to add to a winning trade, but best to lock it in in case the move quickly pops against me. Locked in profits are always what i go for quickly
Exits are generally at multiples of my R/R ratio. sometimes i push them further out depending on price action.
my stop on NVDA was pretty close for this size of a move, filling on the ask, so i want to lock in some quickly as possible this was past a 2:1 R/R ratio, so i could have made more, but the main issue was with this sizing i don't have hotkeys setup, so a few add spots i missed due to slow manual entries

Nice job, great entry. What was your stop for the initial entry? What was your reason2exit? Looking at this I feel you probably took that first 25 off a little to quickly and missed the bulk of the move. Its awesome trade, just feel you probably could have held for a little longer and made more profit.
