**What was the result of the trade, what happened? Profit. Market was strongly gapping up in a parabolic fashion. I took and ORBU trade on $AAPL at 188.64 with 50 shares. I added to my position several time throughout the trade. I set profit targets at 152.50, 153.00, and 153.50. I had a daily level at 153.59 and a LRC at 153.82. I took partials throughout the trade and added shares as the price action rode along the 9EMA with brief pullbacks that were not significant enough for me to exit the trade. The price action finally hit my breakeven stop and ended my trade.

*FEELINGS- Describe what you thought and felt during the trade? Feeling confident with my execution.

*EVALUATION- What was good or bad about the trade (what worked according to plan in the trade)? Good: The overall market was strongly gapping up. The price action broke the premarket and opening range high with average volume. The price action gapped up along the 9EMA for a long period of time pulling back only briefly before it eventually hit my breakeven stop. Bad: My final add was a technical error since I meant to set a sell order at a defined profit target and added shares instead.

*ANALYSIS- Does the trade make sense to you now that it is over? Yes.

*CONCLUSION- What is the final judgment of the trade (draw conclusions)? It was one of my best ORB trades that I felt good executing and managing.

*ACTION PLAN- How are you going to avoid the mistakes you made on this trade? How are you going to make sure you get the same results the next time if the trade was good? Continue to take the setup and practice excellent risk management.
