IIPR Very Loose Uptrend Vision

NYSE:IIPR   Innovative Industrial Properties, Inc.
Just looking at the short time this stock has been public, and just looking at how crazy scattered the 4hr candles are (not much better on any other small time frames, too few candles on larger ones) I know that I am "throwing lines on a chart" here in almost the typically derogatory way. But this is mostly a framework for me. I have been in this since almost the beginning, and I was really intrigued to see how it behaved on the correction after the presumed New Year's boost it would get from weed legalization in the companies operating state CA. Thankfully, they were able to pull out a much higher earnings than was projected for the first quarter of 2018, and this has helped them keep that momentum going. With a little emotional bias I am calling this a long, though my rational self would say its too hard to tell.

The longer the candles linger at those horizontal lines, the more "evidence" they have that this is a true horizontal support/resistance. The more bounces off or, crosses followed by corrections of the channel line are similarly indicative of the correctness of my "shot in minimal light" so to speak. It's the nature of the game with young public companies.

MOST IMPORTANTLY WATCH THE BOTTOM CHANNEL LINE. A continued break below this (over 12hrs, I am selling 10% and watching out) may mean my emotions got the best of me and this uptrend is way to generous. Will always keep a little, but will take profits if I see it heading towards a sideways or downtrend.

I am the stupidest person I know and none of this is investment advice.
