The daily UPST chart UPST in a clear strong uptrend so all bounces into rising demand are valid. The daily chart can be seen
I entered the day looking for a 20ma bounce off rising support which is always a good trade.
The hourly chart
This trade was a text book bounce trade however profit could have been taken better for this trade as it continued to run.
On the 5min chart
I took profit on that same candle, however with a risk factor of 2.00 i should have sold half the position at 216.88. and let the other half ride B/E
My stop would have never got tapped and I could have rode this trade for much more profit.
None the less this is a good example of a playbook bounce trade off the 20ma.
The second entry after the bounce continued to run was a bit of a chase, I never let the highs of the previous hour confirm, I entered and stopped out. I took a trade for no reason.
