Bullish perspective on AMZN | My current setup.

Long
NASDAQ:AMZN   Amazon.com
Today we will speak about AMZN, the bullish view, and my current setup.

If I have to define my trading style, I will describe it as a swing breakout trader. A basic explanation on the way I trade would be described like this "Impulses tend to come from consolidations, so if I'm able to identify formed consolidations on an advance stage, I can start thinking in setups around the breakout on those early signs that a new impulse may be starting. Like any trading strategy, sometimes I'm right, others I'm wrong (i would describe this as 50% of the time), and the standard deviation on the wrong side can be around seven consecutive stop losses. And the last detail you need to understand in this style is the average risk to reward ratio (2)

With all that said, let's take a look at AMZN:

The price has been moving sideways for 469 days, On a compressive triangle pattern. We have observed 2 breakouts attempts without observing the real impulse yet. Based on previous situations where we can see the price moving similarly, the sequence I have observed is breakout followed by a correction followed by the new impulse coming. Currently, we are observing clear similarities with the previous correction in terms of formation size and time. That's why based on statistics; I'm beating on the repetition of this situation; in the next picture, you can see my current setup that was executed on the breakout of the retest (big structure)


I'm currently risking 3% of my trading capital on the stop-loss. The idea is clear IF the price goes below 3160, I'm out of the trade; if that doesn't happen, I will keep holding my setup until I see the price on 4822 / Final risk to reward ratio: 3
