ORB, earnings, and oversold stochastics. The perfect storm for an AWESOME day! I started with 100 shares and added another $100 as it appeared the only place this stock was going was up. I am so proud of myself that I held on and gently scaled out. I made $607 on this trade! with only 200 shares. This is one my best trades so far and certainly in the last two weeks. I had Kunal's reasons to sell in his verbage in front of me (give it time, let it develop...)and the stock never gave me a reason to sell, so I kept raising my stop and was finally stopped out when the stock started to stall.

Wow! Just looked at that daily chart - low of $139 & high of $153 ish- you got the meat of that trade by scaling out with perfection! Nice way to hold on and following your rules about needing a reason to sell. Great job!
