Comment:
Broke 109.63, but not enough volume, will keep watching and hoping for more volume.
Trade active:
Very strong volume right out of the gate.
Comment:
Sold 1/6 of my position - I usually sell in 25% or 33% increments, but I feel like this one is going much higher.
Comment:
Resistance at 123.26, I will consider reducing my position at are near that price range.
Comment:
Revised target: 129 area.

Sold 1/6 of my position. Still holding 2/3 of my original position.
Comment:
Targets are areas - no one can say with certainty that a stock will reach a target - it's an estimation based on how I read the chart. If a stock starts to show signs of weakness, take your profit and run. You can always buy back if you need to, but it's best to take profit and wait for the next buying opportunity (as a swing trader).

This stock has already reached the initial target ($123) I set on April 29th. The rest is gravy for me, if it hits the revised target of $129, great! If it starts to show signs of weakness, I'll take some off and eventually sell my remaining 2/3 position.

NO stock goes up forever, typically when a stock get's this far 'stretched' or this far over bought, it will retrace. Watch for it and make sure you don't lose those profits.
Comment:
Sold 1/6 of my position, leaving me with 1/2.
Comment:
Enjoying the ride.
Comment:
I added to my position today.
Comment:
Sold 1/2 of my open position today. While it's still a few buck from my 129 target (but over my original 123 target), I feel like the market has to pull back eventually - especially Nasdaq.
Comment:
I’ll add to my position if/when price clears 127.05 on greater than 30M in volume.
Comment:
I do plan to sell the remainder of my position when my target is hit. Nothing goes up forever, but I'll definitely be watching for a new entry opportunity.
Trade closed: target reached:
Exited at 129 even. Will watch for (and post) my next plan for entry.
