AAPL Trade on Jun 14, 2021 09:44 from BlackSwanTrading: Tradervue User Stock Trades.

Trade Plan: R4 Breakout

Trade Idea: AAPL was at the top of a value range that it had been testing for the past few weeks. The range high was around 128 and the low of the value range was 123. Over the past week, it had been trading in a smaller range on the upper side. This value range set a low of 126 and the high still being 128. The pivot ranges were upwards and narrow and R4 coincided with a breakout of the range so I decided I'd take AAPL long if it uptrended.

Entry: 128.25
Stop: 129.1
Partials:
1. 25% partial at 128.56 or 2 to 1
2. 25% partial at 128.71 or 3 to 1
3. 50% partial at right below 129 @ 128.94
4. All out at 128.79 when it threw 2 upper wick candles and then continued down, so decided to exit.

Overall Rating: 9/10

What was good:
- I acknowledged that I'm trading AAPL so I will need the SPY or at least the Q's to be trending long as well.
- Entered after the nice pop-over R4, and knew that there was a ladder of big ASK on the L2 since I was already watching waiting for an entry.

What was bad:
- After a few red days I took bigger partials and failed to leave a 10% position to potentially take profit at a higher price.
