IDEA: Long on Catalyst-Driven Breakout (A "Pop & Go" Framework)

Here is a live swing trade I am taking in IDEA, which is triggering a classic "Pop & Go" setup.

This post is for educational purposes to detail the complete mechanical framework I am using to manage this trade, from entry to exit.

1. The Setup: A+ "Pop & Go"
This is not a random technical breakout. It is driven by two powerful, fundamental catalysts, which gives me higher conviction:

Catalyst 1 (Earnings): Strong Q2 results, with a significantly narrowed loss and an 8.7% YoY growth in ARPU (a critical metric).

Catalyst 2 (News): Positive news flow that the government is officially working on a "relief package" for the company.

The chart shows the stock "popped" on this news and is now "going" by breaking out of a 3-day consolidation, confirming the new demand.

2. The Mechanical Trade Plan
This is a Cash Swing Trade, not a short-term gamble. The rules are defined in advance to remove emotion.

Bias: Long

Entry: ~₹10.20

Stop-Loss (1R): ~₹9.62 (Set just below the consolidation low)

My position is sized so that a drop from my entry to my stop is exactly my predefined 1R (e.g., ₹10,000) risk.

3. The Exit Strategy
This is the most important part. The plan is designed to pay for the trade first, then hunt for a "monster" win.

Target 1 (Base Hit): I have a GTT (profit-take) order to sell 50% of my position at +2R.

(1R = ₹0.58 risk)

2R Target = ~₹11.36

The "Free Trade" Maneuver: As soon as Target 1 is hit, my stop-loss on the remaining 50% is moved up to my entry price (~₹10.20). This makes the rest of the trade 100% risk-free.

Target 2 (The Runner): This "free" 50% position will now be trailed using the 10-day moving average (10EMA) to capture a potential large-scale, multi-week trend.

This is my complete framework for this trade. I will follow the plan.
