Got the price but not the volume, I'm hoping to see a pullback and another run up with volume.

I got out! I got in by breaking my own rules - see the comments section for a screenshot - and I just don't think it has the volume to support a run to my target. If you got in, I think you can hold it with a tight stop, and I wish you luck.

and now the volume comes... :)

Comment

If previous high becomes support, I may re-enter.

Order cancelled

R/R no longer attractive to me.

This was a BAD entry, I broke my own rules. Instead of waiting for volume, like I said on June 5th, I took the trade. Hopefully it will work out, but I didn't give the stock a chance to confirm that it wanted to go higher so this mistake reduced my chances for success on this trade, in my opinion. Of course, the stock might higher (or lower, or it might continue to trade sideways for 6 months), but I didn't give it a chance to prove it had the guts to go higher before I took a position.
