There was a ton of volume done at 10.10. \u00a0The most volume was done here on the Open. \u00a0The buyer seemed to win at the 10.10 level. \u00a0But then 10.20 held the offer firmly. \u00a0Finally 10.20 lifted.<\/p>\n<p>GMan proclaimed,&#8221;Oh it&#8217;s on. \u00a0I am long SVNT.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>I love this long. \u00a010 was premarket support. \u00a0The 10.10 buyers won. \u00a0And now the 10.20 buyers overwhelmed the 10.20 sellers. \u00a0The stock had gapped down. \u00a0The first move down was steep. \u00a0SVNT had potential for significant upside. \u00a0Bella long. \u00a0And I am not selling until there is a reason to sell.<\/p>\n<p>So when I review my work I search for these clean trades where I can be aggressive. \u00a0These trades will work for the intraday trader. \u00a0Our win rate is at least 60 percent. \u00a0Our risk\/reward is better than 1X5.<\/p>\n<p>What patterns work best for you? \u00a0When you review your work brand these trades into your trading memory bank. \u00a0Feed your brain with these set ups. \u00a0The next time they reappear you will trade them even better.<\/p>\n<p>Best of luck with your trading.
