WTW Trade on Jan 17, 2018 15:59 from konradengen: Tradervue User Stock Trades.

Took position at EOD as it was closing strong on this 52-week breakout. Risk was a gap down below 61.75, and 61.44 if it opened above. Wanted to give it some room to pull back the first 5 minutes on the open. Thesis was that it would most likely continue the uptrend after some consolidation, and a close above vwap.
Thesis didn't work out.

Lesson: Only hold Day 1 moves overnight, unless it is a stock with a very solid catalyst.
