Brendon 138 Posted June 26 +$637 Trade Recap: MU Breakout from VWAP/Previous Day Close/S2 Pivot Trade Date: 6/25/24 MU was holding above Previous Day Low/S3 support level. Once we broke above the 1-Min 9/20 trend lines and S3, a signature large bullish candle formed, I entered just above VWAP at S2/PDC. Targets were S1, since that held, my final target was a VERY extended R1 and my instinct told me to exit fully. Classic VWAP breakout holding above trend and camarilla supports. #MU #MICRON #VWAPBreakout #CamarillaPivots #PDCBreakout Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brendon 138 Posted June 26 +$573 AMD Stopped Out! Camarailla Pivot Range Trading! Trade Date: 6/26/24 AMD, a fine example of a NOT in play chop stock. Was looking for a quick pop to R2 but there was a clear rejection and stopped out at a loss. *Near open first trades of the day can be 50/50 since erratic whipsaws cause stops to be triggered, I use smaller size. Soon realized the Market Makers may be doing Cam Pivots (also pinball between daily MAs), went long at the hold S1, partialed on the way up to the MAs, VWAP, and R1. QQQ was breaking HOD and I repeated Cam Pivot range trading. We failed to break strong PDC resistance towards order book liquidity @ $161 and exited fully on the last attempt. I try to avoid this type of trading as it is usually controlled by MM algos. Do not fight the algos and look for the pivots in the range if you expect to survive. #AMD #CamaraillaPivot #RangeTrading #Chop #Algo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brendon 138 Posted June 27 +$567 NVDA Stopped Out then ORB! MU VWAP Breakout, Amazing Reversal! Trade Date: 6/27/24 NVDA, went long 1-min ORB towards R2 but we rejected hard early at the moving averages. Large whipsaw action stopped me at a loss! Double bottom formed and quickly longed for a recoil bounce back to HOD. Partialed on this momentum move, we held VWAP and I added heavy for HOD break towards R2/9EMA daily level. Partialed more at Pre-market high and exited fully as momentum slowed. R3/PDC were additional targets to consider but we were already extended on the move up...as you can see by the massive rejection. MU had earnings after hours and was in play. Sold off hard and I was looking for a bounce. I memorized this 1-min pattern and clearly saw the double bottom that formed. Just look at that buyback to VWAP! After the large 1-min bullish candle I went long...slightly late. Target was a HOD break to the 50EMA 1-min and R3. I used large size and partialed on the way up and thought we might we reject HOD again. Exited the remainder before B/E but we did run up to the 20EMA daily to fill the $137 liquidity before finally rejecting. Today I was more a momentum trader than using the Cams as defined targets. #NVIDIA #NVDA #MU #MICRON #VWAPBreakout #Reversal #DoubleBottom Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brendon 138 Posted Monday at 10:20 PM (edited) +$70 AMD Double Stopped Out! Success AMZN VWAP Breakout Trade Date: 7/1/24 AMD, semis sold off hard today, got stopped out 3 times, twice on AMD and once on NVDA (*short-side hotkey error too). I want to highlight the double stop out on AMD. I was looking for a hold of S4 and bounce to VWAP but we rejected the 50SMA daily (158.84) and headed lower. Again I went for the break of S4 for a scalp to the 1-min 9EMA/VWAP and again stopped out. QQQ was selling off to PDC and this was not the best setup for success. I usually look for a break of trend to catch a reversal. I want to emphasize the importance of stopping out and managing risk. There was no logic to stay in this trade. Use your buying power elsewhere! AMZN was testing R1, making higher lows, and closing above trend/VWAP. I went long for targets of R2 and R3. Partialed at R2 and on the way to R3 but unfortunately we pulled backed below VWAP and had to stop out at B/E. There was a good re-entry opportunity but I felt off today and soon shutdown my platform. I scalped a little more with some success but no big moves and closed the day flat. #AMD #StoppedOut #AMZN #Amazon #VWAPBreakout Edited Tuesday at 03:48 PM by Brendon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brendon 138 Posted Tuesday at 03:45 PM +$602 NVDA VWAP Breakout to Camarilla Pivots! AMD PDC Break towards liquidity Trade Date: 7/2/24 NVDA started off wicky but once a large engulfing candle formed I went long above the 1-Min 9/20 trend and VWAP. We spiked up to S3 and sold off but held trend. Added more with the close above VWAP, partialed at S3 heavily, hit some chop and got spooked out at VWAP. We had nice bounces from VWAP and re-entered at the break of S3 towards S2, S1, and large liquidity at 123. Later, I saw a bounce from 121.89 (20EMA daily) and tried for another VWAP breakout towards S2 again but only got some partials and stopped out at B/E. AMD ran up and sold off today. Once we hit PDC and had a hard rejection of R1 and crack of LOD, I shorted towards liquidity of 157 and exited fully at 1-Min 200 SMA. You have to be patient and wait for the crack of PDC to trigger stops before you enter to have the greatest chance of success. Brian Pezim taught me this. #NVDA #NVIDIA #VWAPBreakout #PreviousDayCloseBreak #CamarillaPivot Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
