MARA Trade on Feb 8, 2024 09:47 from Trader_DK88-Andrew_BOWS: Tradervue User Stock Trades.

Improvements:

  1. This is was a trend continuation trade with an entry on the remount of the daily vwap.
  2. The stock had gapped up off the open and performed a quick pull back into the 18.40-level.
  3. The stock then continued with an uptrend into the 19.20-level.
  4. The stock then performed a second pullback into the 18.60-level.
  5. The stock had a small consolidation here at 18.60-level and then pushed up into the daily vwap and remounted it.
  6. On the close above the daily vwap I took an entry long for a potential break above the prior high and a trend move to the upside.
  7. Once in the trade I had learned quickly the stock is a slow grinder type stock and moved slowly and its moves are smaller than say a $100 stock.
  8. My profit harvesting target was around the 19.90-level and used the trailing stop order to trial behind.
  9. The stock hit the 19.40-level and was being held there by a seller. This is evident on the 1-min chart as the stock puts in a sideways consolidation.
  10. At this point I realised the stock would not break the 19.40-level I had moved the trailing stop up into below the 2-min candle still.
  11. This allowed the stock room to move if it potential could break the level and continue to the upside AND also protected the downside.

Range chart:

Range chart showing the trade mechanics for the trade with the identified area for trade entry, the stock being held at the 19.40-level and my trade exit. Additionally I identify how the stock was making successive higher-lows and how these could/should have/needed to be used for the placement of the trailing stop. In doing so would have allowed the trade to work for longer and allowed for increased level of profit harvesting on the trade.
